New Harrier Model

Great news, any Harrier for FSX is good news.


Well,,,actually I found and Ex-payware now freeware Harrier from IRIS.

Over at Simviation. Works splendid in FSX (accel) however no thumbnails (made my own)
Sound is spot on and textures are fantastic. IMHO this one will do till something better
comes out. Takes getting use to taking off in VSTOL Mode, F6/F7/F8 keys (flaps) made
the engine rotate downwards and provides lifting thrust. All models are Brit, no us ones.
This is ex payware generously donated as freeware and is not supported by Iris.

Thanks. Downloading now. Every IRIS harrier I have downloaded has mirror hud and panel area.
 
Rob, and chance of the newer system on my Freeware GR7?
Hi Dave,

I'm certainly willing to port my new stuff to other Harrier ( or simular) addons, but not before sept at the earliest.
If only because I lack the time to take on new projects, other then what's allready on my list at present.

Rob, thanks. My GR7 will be ready way before sept, so If it is ok with you, I will just use my existing harrier files for it, then we can update it with new Vtol files in Sept?

Hi Rob

has the VTOL gauges for this new Harrier package been tested with windows 7 and FSX Accel... just curious as havent been able to use any of your superb gauges since I started using a Windows 7 machine as I keep getting a CTD. The last thing i tried was that Thunderbird 2 (and I sure miss the ease of use of your Carrier deck gauges). Hoping this wont be a problem with these Harriers as I'm looking forward to them.

Awsome video Kilo Delta , these planes are still amazing to me. I hear that they do
eat the gas while in that lift/hover mode.

Hi Mattt,

I'm not aware of any problems with my VTOL stuff on Accel and/or Windows7, although I çan't test it myself. The last problem I heard of, was solved when that user installed the latest version of FSUIPC.

Yes, of course you can use the stuff you already have for the old Harriers.
Problem may be with the new VTOL version, is that it relies on independant nozzle control in the model.
I guess your new model still has nozzles and flaps both still tied to FS-Flaps.
So I have to make adaptations (it will work, just not that good); anyway that has to wait untill after summer.

Rob, i am building it, so I can make it work how I want to, but yes, to use the old versions, I will have to model them to flaps, but when you release the update in sept, i can re-make it to suit
 
Hi Rob

installed latest version of FSUIP and all gauges seems ok now... odd but must have just been something that the previous version I had installed didnt like about my setup. Anyway all good now so hopefully no problems with the Harrier.

Hi, im really curious with the below points i have listed (also Posted in the other Harrier Tread);

  1. LGB, Clean and AIM-9 only loadouts? What about CBU, 500/1000lb, CBLS, SNEB/Rocket packs, just Tanks, just inner pylons (Unremovable due to no wiring joints for the WE177!)???
  2. Centre Pylon not used? IIRC this was used by GR3 alot?
  3. Aden Pods perminant? Harriers flew without them some times, both SHAR and GR3!
  4. VIF'ing possible? Id guess this could be but with some FSX limitations?
 
jep but I think that dev team doing the mcdonnell douglas built Harrier Navy variant

best regards
Thomas

Thomas, if you check the RAZBAM forum you'll see the intention of RAZBAM is to build the WHOLE Harrier family!!

Cheers
