Shrike Simulations (Milviz/Blackbird) Aircraft

The visual and audio model justifies someone going through it with real data and rebuilding the whole flight model.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but having recently bought this plane and flown it twice I am now rebuilding the whole flight model.
I've started with the contact points, moved on to the weight and balance, updated the engines and props, added PMS GTN750 (menu bar app) autopilot compatibility, and I'm currently fine tuning the handling.
I've discovered that the prop spinners have two textures - one for engines off and another one for engines running - unfortunately the engines running textures seem to be built-in to the model and can't be edited by me at least; I can't find them anywhere!
So I'm stuck with the chrome spinners for now, but I'd like to change them if anyone knows how. The chrome reflects sunlight into the cockpit and causes a flickering effect on the panel when the sun is in the right place.
