October 3, 20178 yr Commercial Member Hi all, Anyone know of a small amphibian for P3Dv4, either freeware or payware? I have the Beaver and Twotter but would like to have something smaller along the lines of the RealAir Scout amphibian. Thanks in advance Robert Abernathy
October 3, 20178 yr This one while not an A2A, isn't too bad. http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=c185fbush Bill Bill N7IBG
October 3, 20178 yr Author Commercial Member Thanks Bert. I have the Scout in P3Dv4 but the gauges don't seem to work, unless there is a work around I'm not aware of yet. Thanks Bill, that looks like a good deal on the C185. I'm hoping I can get the Scout to work too. EDIT Found out I hadn't copied over the gauge files for the Scout and now they all work ok! Will still take a look at the 185 though. Robert Abernathy
October 3, 20178 yr I like the Eaglet from Ant's airplanes. It comes with a Seasky Floatplane. Very small :) http://www.antsairplanes.com/eaglet.html

Not sure If carenado are planning an update or not. It may work as is of course. Haven’t tried myself. If you do install it, make sure to get Bernt Stolle’s excellent “ultimate 185” fde package.

October 3, 20178 yr If you are happy with not so detailed models of older airplanes, the Lionheart Classic Collection might be worth a second look. Two different float planes are included in this collection: the Piper Super Pacer Float and the Fairchild 24R Float.

Perhaps an error at F1? It may work just fine of course, but I haven't tried installing. http://www.carenado.com/CarSite/Portal/index.php?accion=product&correl=50 Glenn Ryzen 3700X, X570 Pro Wifi, 32GB 3600mhz RAM, Nvidia Titan Xp "Galactic Empire", RM750x PSU, H700 case, 2x NVMe M2 SSD, 1x SATA SSD
October 3, 20178 yr They might be hedging their bets with the word "Compatible". Might mean might work. Thanks for the heads up. Bill Bill N7IBG
October 3, 20178 yr Commercial Member What about the Milviz Beaver or the Aerosoft Twin Otter? Both have an option to add floats.
October 3, 20178 yr Thanks, C185... I look on Carenado site on p3d pages and because no entry I think... don't be compatible yet...
October 3, 20178 yr Author Commercial Member Thanks all.. I havve th3e Milviz Beaver and Aerosoft Twin Otter. Both are very good. Was looking for something smaller. I did get the RealAir Scout working after realizing I hadn't moved the gauges over from P3Dv3. Went ahead and got Ant's Eaglet. It's not an amphip but I like it. The one I'd love to see is the Lake Renegade 250. I'm also wondering if the SeeBee will work. I'll go have a look. Robert Abernathy
