Hey Larry, great news on both of you quitting, ex-smoker myself for many years now and once you get through the hard stuff, the habit is the main thing to break. You then find out just how stinky cigarette's are :) Anyway, great job, keep it up. :encouragement:

If you have any friends with electronics skills they can rewire that throttle for you. If you were in Aus, I'd say post it to me and I'll do it for you. I'm also looking at the Alpha and Bravo and according to the Facebook page they've been having some manufacturing issue and had to slightly rework some of the controls on the Yoke. Hopefully it's work the wait as I can't wait to get rid of my SaiTek Quadrants.

I have dabbled in electronics for decades (I am a fully qualified Ham Radio operator licensed since the mid 80's) and I have repaired the wiring but it must have taken out some on-board chips or PCB switches when they shorted because certain functions either do not work or act really strangely. It has crashed the computer when connected so it will go to the electronics scrap yard the next time we have enough junk to make a trip (we can't just toss dead electronic items into the garbage here in Canada and have to recycle them through Gov't recycling centres).

Maybe you're too young to have heard many Aussies? ...;)

How about "on the slops"?
There's almost as many ways to say 'pissed as a fart' as there are Aussies to say them...;)

Well I am 20 years behind you Jafo, so you may have something.
 
Well Jafo is a youngster of 63.I am an 80 year old ex para and have been on the p*** many times.It is just a lot of youngsters have never heard of the old servicemens language.
Anyhow the most important point is that this project is nearing release.Thanks Larry and I wish you luck giving up smoking.I did it 15 years ago and found it remarkably easy.It is just determination.
Heres to the upcoming release that we have all been waiting for.

Cheers Chris

I would refer you back to post #219 which was Larry's last post explaining the current state. . .and to any future posts who ask the same basic question, that's Larry's final word on the subject. . .nothing will change until you see a post from Larry. . .so asking every month or so won't net you any news beyond his post unless it comes directly from Larry.
 
It is very sad to see that the boxcar is not going to be released as well as others by Larry especially as he made a plea for people to help which they did especially tankerguy.

As falcon says it is up to Larry.
Larry if you cannot do it give it to someone who can please.

Cheers Chris

Really hoping to get the 123 finished. Just too busy getting everything ready for our new arrival in Oct. Maybe ill get on there and post some updated shots of the VC. I have textured a lot in there.
 
Hi Tankerguy and all the best with your new arrival.I was,however ,not chasing up your venture,I was chasing the Taco Kichi venture where you helped Larry as did many others but it seems he is reluctant to release the finished product inspite of help from others.
Cheers Chris

Given what has been posted earlier, this is a pretty offensive comment.

I was aware just giving an update since that subject was brought up :encouragement:
 
Sorry tankerguy, my comment was in no way aimed at you.
Best wishes for your new arrival . . . and the C123! :very_drunk:

Speedy, read my previous comments and those of the developer regarding the release of the C-119. Problem seems to be that people don't read a thread, but rather the last few posts, think they have all the info they need and then spout an opinion. . .when the reasons for Larry's hold on the C-119 were explained in detail by him on previous pages. Try reading and be better informed.

i think its just a patience thing.... i mean "MONTHS" pass before an update is offered..... just saying.

Yes, and it will continue to be so, unless Larry is able to get back on the computer and finish out whatever is left. . .until that time you won't hear anything else.
