PBR Update for Manfred Jahn's Douglas C-47!

[NeilC 3]

I posted to the SimOuthouse thread.  Has anyone noticed how the rudder is a lot more effective whilst taxiing?  It used to be quite difficult with the castor tailwheel (or is there an option to disable/enable the castor which I have forgotten about).

EDIT:  Found the problem, the old readme told me to edit the cfg file to alternate steering to allow the castor!

What an amazing piece of work this C-47 is!!! Here's my first repaint for it:

LOL! Well ... at least when I'm working on the livery I can get out there and photograph the real thing! Same deal for the A2A C172 that's just got a PBR upgrade. I managed to take a heap of reference pics, courtesy of the Ardmore Flying School. That said, I did create some US liveries for the 172 (pre-PBR).

Hey I've got the A2A 172 as well!

Looking forward to more of your work :-)

I think there is a museum C-47 at YMMB, an old Ansett or TAA airlines plane.

Thanks for sharing this - payware quality

It's crashing on P3d5, even with the new windshield.dll from A2A, I disabled both windshield dll and .ini.

It's not the PBR C47, I have flown it for hours in P3D v5.

Jan Kees Blom uploaded a bunch of repaints to AVSIM. Just search for PBR.

Has anyone got this bird running in P3Dv5? It works, checklist works, sound work. But however, the mixture is jumping always back to the default setting, no matter if I move it using the assigned button on my T.16000 joystick or via mouse. Can not control the plane like that, what do I have to do? Thanks for any hint.

If by "default setting" you mean full rich, auto rich, auto lean and idle cutoff, that's intentional behavior.  The system adjusts for altitude and other factors to give the best mixture automatically.

No, I mean that it is stuck on the initial setting. I can move it to auto rich or cutoff and the levers instantly go back to the start position. No matter what I do.

Any FSUIPC mixture settings?

[AnkH 2,262]

Nope, no controller configured in FSUIPC.
