Awesome! Is this a complete new model, or a rebuild of the older FSX package?

Yep, it was HDR. Turned it off and it's much better now. Unfortunately, there are no sliders for HDR in 2.5, so it's just all the way off now. But I like it better, and I think this is the way I...

I just fired up my P3D 2.5 install for the first time in a while. I went through and uninstalled a bunch of 3rd party scenery I never really use (including FTX Global and Vector) to speed up loading...

I'll just leave this here as a subtle hint to Tankerguy72....

Cool video!

The drop is at 3:00, right? Is the switch to drop retardant actually on the yoke, then?

It was cool to see how much he had to push the yoke forward to counter weight loss of the...

A lot of folks (myself included) use Firefighter X now. So the drop gage and effect may actually not be used by as many this time around.

Just sayin'...

Awesome! I've been looking forward to this for a while!

Awesome! Will you be able to correct the wake effect issue that appeared with p3d 2.5?

Are the FSX native conversions of the Tracker fire bombers (turbo and radial) still WIP, or did I maybe miss their release at some point?

Thanks!

Was this ever released? I've been watching for it, but didn't know if I missed it.

I had similar issues for a while and I think it was related to Accufeel and overspeeding the aircraft. After overspeeding, even after slowing down, the aircraft would jump all over the place.

I don't think you'll know if AM will help you until you try it, and the number that you use is unique for each system.

I recently followed this guide and got a small fps and smoothness...

So according to the FFX manual, it sends information about the tank fill level to the sim using a value for tail hook position. FFX has an option to disable tail hook entries to account for...

Thanks! Can't wait to fly the tanker with that new VC!

Looks amazing!

So I did reinstall of the plane and put "0" in for the weight values for the retardant stations in the aircraft cfg file. That at least allowed the plane to load just fine, and when I opened the...

I use FireFighter X now for fire fighting in FSX and P3D, and the built in retardant drop gage in the F7F conflicts with what FireFighter X does. ie - both the gage and FFX add weight for retardant,...

Thanks everyone. I created a basic take off and landing aid by pulling some tables out of the flight manual that show weights, flap settings, and take off and landing speeds. It displays a little odd...

Thanks. I'll see if I can extract some simple checklists from there!

I'm trying to find some simple checklists with basic info for flying the P-3. ie - take off, cruise, and landing power, flaps, and speed settings, v-speeds, etc...

Couldn't find anything via...
