• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

And accidentally figured out how to do it a bit different than I originally envisioned.

Man! That's pretty dang cool! I bet you could apply that to a Corsair skin and it would just pop! I say that just because of the smooth curve from the fuse to the wing. Not the same as a Mustang, or even the Grumman birds.
 
I put on the back burner while working on another one, but it's back in front now. Just have to upload the other one.

They can be a handful, especially during takeoffs and landings. But go for a touchdown speed of around 90 (short wings with no flaps), let it bounce all it wants to (be one with the bounce) and if you don't hit anything (can't see for nothng out of the cockpit), you're good to go. Take offs, I'll use the rudder a lot, the elevators some, but trying to use the aerilons below 90 can get you hurt. As with landings, just try to keep from hitting things as there's really not much control on the ground except for taxiing.

Once up to flying speed though, it's a joy to fly. Although quite maddening to figure out how to take off and land in it. The freeware Warwick Carter one handles a bit different from the Alebao one. The Alabeo is my preference between the two.

As for the Virtavia Gee Bees, I've got them but never really figured them out. Having too much fun with the others.



I think this one is pretty much where I want it. I'll kick it around a day or so, then upload it.

Trying to decide which way to go with that one at the moment. I know I'll need to do a bare metal one, but after that?? I think I've got all the updates installed.
