Just Flight Avro Vulcan released!

Just Flight has come out with version 1.03 with a bug or two to boot, lets call this work in progress ... just hope they tweak the "non exhaust" effect soon.

PS - have had one or two marginal landings with this ole girl since my last posting ... practice , practice !?@$!

Cheers
 
Ok dumb question, how do you close the flap at the back behind the rudder?

For the life of me I can't find how to close it :banghead:
 
The latest update fixes the issue with the brake parachute door. One danger of constantly adding new functionality is the risk of breaking existing functionality, as happened in this case.

  • Manual updated to reflect changes since release
  • Livery textures mismatch - fixed
  • External model options not initialising correctly when product installed outside of Prepar3D directory - fixed

  • Uncommanded brake parachute door opening above 170 KIAS - fixed
  • Radio altimeter OFF flag logic fixed

Apart from our on-going work to add PBR materials, the vast majority of extra functionality has now been added and the product page and manual have been updated accordingly.

Thanks

"Regarding pricing, it's a topic that we could write pages on but fundamentally it comes down to us needing to make a sufficient ROI on the product to make it worthwhile and to ultimately ensure our survival. I'm sure you can appreciate that the Vulcan is a complex aircraft and it took over a year to develop the product. Our pricing reflects that level of work, which was greater than one of our GA aircraft (typically £28) but no doubt much less than something like a PMDG 777. We think it's a fair price given the level of functionality, detail and man hours invested in it, but whether you consider it value for money is of course a matter of personal taste. I'd happily pay £60 for a fully functional Nimrod MR2 (unlikely to ever happen though!) but wouldn't be interested in the best-ever helicopter even if it cost £15. We each have our own thresholds based on our interests/standards/means."



If it wore 'Stars and Bars' there would be no quibbles re the cost.
An outstanding rendition of an outstanding Cold War aircraft, and one which I find immensely enjoyable, even if it ended up the equivalent of A$100+.
When do we get a Victor?
:encouragement:
 
Curious if Just flight is going to address the disappearance of the exhaust smoke on a future update, anybody got some intel ?

Just not a Vulcan without it ....

We're working on a new FPS friendly and more realistic smoke effect. We've sought outside expertise for this and that inevitably causes it to take longer than planned, but it is being worked on.
