  1. Yup, DC4s.... But it looks externally 'close' enough for some on fs I suppose. And Its a darn sight better than current dc4 options.
  2. Its not a scalar function in fs sadly... brakes are all or nothing, and locking up is an unfortunate quirk unless 'anti lock' is set.The brake wackyness is one of the things I fixed when working fixing the 182rg fde's.
  3. On a lot of aircraft, landing lights are in the model. Simplest way with a lot of payware and some excelent freeware, is look in the shockwave directory for the coordinates. They have a lot of aircraft listed and updated as people add them. Though I've done my share of guess positioning in the past!
  4. Nice work... wondered how you'd gotten around the gauge mask till I realised it was the 2d... still, awesome work, rocking a gns430, kn140, and 330 in my 206, though thats the vc as I can't stand 2d
  5. could be a vc animation then, I did ask, but have you service pack one and two in?
  6. Do you have service packs one and two installed for fsx? Is advanced animations checked?Have you patted your head whilst rubbing your tummy?Is the control surface 'functioning' when in flight, or simpky locked completely?have you made any modifications to the aircraft since install?
  7. looking good, working on an Electra for a VA at the moment myself, bit of a pig creating flat white textures to start with, but for a model like that its worth it. Love the repaint :)
  8. Might release the 'revised' white base textures too, and the black interior I'm working on. Seems nomatter what I do though, I can't remove the blurring of the textures around the window frame inside. Will see!(Btw, this version includes 2048x2048 BUMP Maps... suddenly it becomes one heck of a lot crisper.
  9. Yes, it should work in 9, but wont be HD in 9 as it max loads 1024, where fsx can handle higher.And Altstiff: I hope I'm misinterpreting that last comment of yours, because the way I'm reading it, its extremely offensive.
  10. Well Just finished my latest project, redid the carenado base textures for the 206, then painted up quite possibly my favorite livery on this ship. Hageland Aviation Services (now part of Era Alaska) This is based on N9575G, the only 206 in the fleet (along side 19 of her bigger sisters the 207) I'm quite proud of this one, and hopefully will upload it to Avsim later if I can work out how the heck to do it :DHope you like it :)Rachael
  11. 60 degrees flap would be more drag than useful... in that aircraft, it would be a waste.
  12. Got to say, a 207 would be one I'd buy without second thought... I really want one :D Plus It would be good economic sense considering the popularity of a certain Alaskan TV show...*goes back to finishing Hageland 206 paintjob*

    Actually, as a company producing a product, they ARE asking us to buy it... if they don't make something the customer wants, they don't sell it.In this case, there doesn't seem to be A, market for this product, or B, interest. thus, oops... get my drift?The whole 'access' argument is pretty flimsy really, any airfield that has a T182 with a g1000, caravans, c90s, malibus, mooneys, cessna singles, pipers , c340s, is going to have most of the planes people requestest, as they are in far higher circulation. Especially down in south america where they're work horses.I'm a huge fan of Carenado, always will be, I buy most of thier products, but I will not blindly support them, or buy the product simply because... I support them because they produce good products that I want, I haven't stopped supporting them, I just question the logic in this move...That and glass cockpits just annoy me. *whistle* (see this is the personal opinion bit, not the above)

    I'd like to echo the above sentiments... When I heard there was a new product... i was excited, seeing it was a 182... mildly let down, but still excited to see a new one up to carenado's current standards, seeing it was glass, and not that original, other than the fact it was utterly plush and leather coated, I suddenly felt a little let down.Like the others I don't see much call for it, curiosity perhaps, but it seems like a wasted product, surely they'd be better off doing the more interesting aircraft that nobody makes? then they have the market share?My votes were with the 207 (Never done in fs, and sorely needed) or Aztec, if Carenado want to update thier older aircraft, how about the 206?they have the model to work with and build on, dynamics, a bit of work, gravel guards, tundra tyres, or straight floats... massive market potential.
  15. I hope that means you like it :)One or two of the gauges looked off a tad, did you add the entries from the readme file for placement adjustments?
