Here's the Vertigo N2S at Duxford.... love sunlight on silk and dope! I've always had a thing for 2 wings, and after installing Orbx Monument Valley... I am hankering for something new...
Yes, it ought to look great.... but it NEEDS to transmit the feel of flight as well.... I want to remember that push forward to raise the tail with the corresponding pedal press thereafter. Also, I want to remember watching the sides of the runway whilst pulling the stick into the pit of my stomach, to time the chirp with the burble.... or to push slightly forward to pin the wheels whilst kicking in some rudder.

So far Alabeo's Waco seems to have my nod... but am I missing something that I ought to buy instead? I know there are several good ones- but which one is YOUR FAVORITE- PERIOD! It must work in P3D v2.5....

PS- How do I get just ONE image to post, instead of 2?

Alabeo Waco YM5F. Just check the screen shots thread for multiple images I have done of that great one.

Flew back to City from Duckie... here's the side-slip in... totally beautiful at 1500 all the way... I forgot how beautiful Orbx is....

Thanks for the ideas.... will chew through... but could you expound on flight characteristics....? Graphics are very important... but so is the feel of flight.... Ta!

Alabeo Waco.
Aircraft Factory AKA A2A has the Albatros D.III
Vertigo simulations has the PT-17 and the SPAD VII
 
LOL....Yeah...Its real nice to see the bipes getting the attention they so needed.....The TM is another one that is great......
 
Ok, thanks for the input.... I went ahead and got the Alabeo Waco.... and am pleased with the .air file (so far). Will definitely check out the He and TM in the next week or so....
I really appreciate the pointers.... should anyone want to add any other details of what helps one Bipe stand out from the other... I'd be most interested.

Ta all!

Click to expand...

that was a good thread - full of great biplane porn

...I knew we had just discussed this - like a lost sticky it just disappeared lol

If I had my way....there would be a stickie thread list of all Biplanes - from freeware to payware in order of historical (R/L) development - start with the pre WWI on up to present day
Another stickie of all warbirds also in chronological order (is there a P-47 for FSX?..why, yes - there are 10 of them and they are these...)
Another of all GA - subsets of bush, single engine, multi-engine, prop and jet
Another of all tubeliners
Another of all Helicopters - subsets of Mil, Civie, Sling load capable etc..
And of course - one for all Naval Mil. aircraft and ships...burp*
And finally - one that lists all freeware and payware scenery and mesh - subsets of country, airports, regions, etc..
 
Excellent- exactly the sort of information I was soliciting... Ta!

While I usual drone along in the FLs, installing all the Orbx stuff has resulted in a an itch to see things framed by two wing at 1000 agl... Something I have discovered I have to scratch;).

BTW- I realized I had purchased Just Flight's Moth during a sale some months/years ago.... How does it stack up? Which one- JF or the freeware Ant's? After all, THIS SITE has opened my eyes to some true freeware gems....

Best- C
 
I dont have the JF Moth - but there is none better than Ants TM - be certain

the GAS update of the FS9 Moth is also very very good - and BOTH are freeware
as is this Buecker Jungmann from Oliver Fischer


BtW - thank you for reminding me to fly the Vertigo Stearman...I just wish I could fix the nav lights - the giant white balls of fire force me to leave them off and restrict it to day time flights
 
i fly the gas stearman all the time, it's one of my favs. i also like the christen eagle, but i forget who's payware i have now. in the fs9 daus i liked the lic one. the stock jenny is a-ok too, imo
 
Flying the Vertigo Stearman and the Alabeo Waco all over Orbx land.... allest gut....

Loving the difference in Flight Sim... but is there any tweak for the Waco... rudder seems a bit too effective, almost no need to use, except on the ground... It's a LOVELY model.... I would hope someone smarter than I has tweaked... any tips?

Ta!
