Challanger 601 series...is there a better VC panel?

Featured Replies

I downloaded the Challanger 601 series Business Jet from the front page of AVSIM. I like the way it flies and handles. Too bad the VC is so primitive. I'd love to see a developer produce a panel that could be used by this plane. Is there a more sophisticated payware model of this Bombardier aircraft available for FSX somewhere?Stan

Stan, the "VC panel" is part of the model. It is not something easily replaceable. Since GMax and the SDK is included with FSX Deluxe, invest some time and give it a try yourself. You'll quickly find out just how difficult it is... :(

I certainly can appreciate how very difficult that project would be. I can also appreciate that there are so many more talented individuals on this forum who could utilize the GMax and SDK to do this project. I would gladly pay for such a panel or a totally new plane that has it all so that a revision of this one wouldn't be necessary. I love this plane because it reminds me of a Gulfstream, and I've never had a good one since I've been in simulation. Some day....maybe?Stan

Just to be clear on this point, this was Richie's first aircraft model. Aside from some help from me with texture mapping, custom animations, some custom effect files, and putting together the release package, Richie created the entire project over a period of about two years. :)
