A2As FS2004 Wings of Power WWII fighter pack has a zero it works in fsx fine

[RyanJames170]

ill have to have a look at both of them... i wonder if A2A is going to put out a nice accusim one

[Leopold]

Hello,
A2A's one is an fs2004 model, so I think no accusim.
There is a free model, by restauravia, for fs2004, and compatible with FSX. I'm interrested by this plane too. If there aren't any other model, I know that it isn't a zéro but you have Piglet's great J2M3 raiden.

the hard thing i can see is a realy big lack of technical data on the Zero i was looking for line drawing for another prodject of mine and i had a hell of a time finding good ones.

there is almost no technical data on performance and the engine. if one were to do a good one id see it being costly

I have the JF Zero , it is very well done it the cockpit , and it is light with handling and the model detail is superb :cool:<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input jscode="leoInternalChangeDone()" onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setT imeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">

Hi,

Zero and some other nice planes are for sale now at JustFlight.

$15USD is a great price. Thanks for the Heads Up on the sale. :applause:

[RyanJames170]

$15.0 is not to bad im just a little gun shy becuse the screen shots are iffy they alomost look like the textures are alot better but its so hard to tell.

anyhow know how long this one will be on sale?

[TARPSBird]

Until 9:00am (UK time) Tuesday, July 10. From what I've seen in the video and screenshots $15 US is a good deal for the Zero, especially the A6M2 Model 21 that served through the entire war and can be dressed in a bunch of different paint jobs.

[Roger]

It really is a very good model and I recommend buying it.

[P38man]

How about stalling and spinning ?

Here's a thread about the release of the Jf Zero... http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?64532-(Payware)-A6M2-Zero

[roger-wilco-66]

Well, I bought it now, thanks for the tip!
I liked it immediatly. Here's my subjective first impression.
The FM was about as I expected it to be. As far as stalls go, I would need the numbers first, but my first impressions are that it behaves quite gentle and recovers quickly. I was not able to put it into a spin with the rudder. I also could not produce a high speed stall on lower altitude. [edit: don't know if that is realistic]. I have read that Zeros didn't like to dive or overspeed, because the control forces got too high to recover. As far as I can tell this is not simulated.
But the engine cuts out inverted, and gear gets damaged when you are too fast when it's extended.
The texturing is good, also the bump mapping of the fuselage. Sound is good.

I'd recommend it! A steal for that price.

Well done JF!
