Nice aircraft - great sounds.

One small problem for me - I can't get the gear to raise/lower. Maybe because I am using only SP1??

Although the aircraft was designed around SP2/Acceleration, that shouldn't make any difference to the gear, as that uses standard code.
The only thing that would keep the gear down is if you've activated the gear emergency switch.
 
Hi Dave

Thanks for that advice - but I believe the "problem" is my own fault. I had only just downloaded and installed the a/c - and barely had time to do a CTRL-E start , take off and a quick look at the a/c. My problem was that I was delaying the retraction of gear and it wouldn't retract -- due to excessive speed?? It retracts fine if I retract it immediately upon takeoff. I am going to have to allocate some time to this wonderful a/c of yours.

Regards

Barry
 
Hmmm - definitely must be doing something wrong here. Just can't get the gear to come up with this bird. Got it to work once in a number of attempts.

Startup procedure has been either to use CTRL-E or manual start (turn battery on , start engine, turn alternator on, fly) Have oil pressure OK.

Any ideas please??

Am using G key - will try VC controls.

EDIT - just tried VC controls . Gear up/down switches work - but gear remains down and 3 green lights remain

Further EDIT - sometimes I can get the gear to work and sometimes not. Have been trying it using a. different models and b. loadup after preloading default flight or not. It's got me a bit confused now.

Thanks Dave

Excellent - that has fixed my problem. I wasn't raising the gear fast enough, and the Hunter gathers speed quickly after takeoff.

Barry
 
Nope - That didn't fix my problem - but I have finally found out what my problem was. I was so fixated on trying to figure out why my gear up/down would only work every so often, that I failed to see that half my instruments weren't working either. ( noticed the radios first) -- then realised that the operation of the gear appears to be mapped to the Master Avionics switch function. ( can't actually find a switch for that - but using the generic mapped key for Master Avionics switch turns on all instruments and allows the gear to work)

Now to see if I can fly her :ernae:

Dave,

Are there some psds available for the trainer model ? I have started some extra detailing of the textures (more rivets and fasteners, mostly represented as bump maps) and would have liked at least some wireframe layers for the T. I want to redo the fuselage specular maps as well as the panel detail of the fwd fuselage of the trainers is different.

Thanks
