    Heinkel He177 A5 for Fs9 uploaded

    Hi Folks,
    Model finished and uploaded as we speak.

    A new model and tex by Chris Lampard. Papi has done an excellent 2D panel to use. The rest is me.

    Two versions, one with internal bomb load and one with Fritz X load-out.

    Moses, this is the new and improved He177 A-5/R4. The tight cowling problem has been addressed! LOL!!

    Outstanding work as always, Thanks Shessi and Team

    Now that looks brilliant!

    Here's to hoping that someone will convert it to FSX/P3Dv4 standards!!

    Heinkel He177 A5 for Fs9 uploaded

    Hallo friends,

    there are still some development potential in this bird,
    For example a bombsight which will have a lense close to the german bombsights and
    bomb effects with sound.
    And of course a real manual in the way as the german pilots learned to use this bomber.
    Now the question is: would be an interest for that?
    Because some people fly the war birds like surviving warbirds on an airshow display. Others try even with
    the limitations of fs9 to fly more like in war time.
    Now I wait for your reactions.
    Yours
    Papi

    Well done Papi.
    If I may, Would it be possible, in the documentation, to number the gauges & number the description, instead of to a guage number in the panel.cfg.
    It will be easier for us to see what the actual guage is.

    Otherwise, the more information, the better.

    Regards,
    Robin

    I think a real manual would be very interesting!
    Thanks a lot for your work

    He 177 Bomber manual

    Hallo Friends,
    The panel and FD' s have been updated, the bombsight works.
    The effects work also
    Now comes the hardest work for me: to make the concording panel docs with the gauges numbered and explained
    Than the Exerzier-Karte, which will be kind of checklist.

    Yours
    Papi

    Now Taffy-boy,
    Get yer finger out and do some of your beautiful screenies of this bird, not the flippin' tube-liners, as we seem to be turning into Ohlooktheresanotherprettyairliner.com...ha ha! (only kidding..)

    Glad you like it, Chris makes a mean model and tex.

    Cheers

    Very impressive, nice if we could have a Ju-86 like that !!!

    Hi Shessi,

    I'll try my best but can't promise though - particularly as I've just rediscovered the MelJet Boeings, specifically the 777 and the plethora of repaints available for it. As it comes with a paint-kit I think it needs a "Air Wales" livery ;-)

    Seriously though, the Heinkel He177 is stunning and very much appreciated. The generosity of all those who contributed to its production and then made it freely available to the community is to be applauded

    We are not (most of the time) worthy.

    Curous...

    I have flown the He 177A-5 and it seems to fly very well.
    Have you thought of making a He 177B-0 prototype?

    Hi BvA,
    Yes, a 277...when I get the chance, but it's not high up the list, but will be done...sometime.....

    I does work rather brilliantly in FSX as is. No texture glitches on the props (which look great) and minimal on the glazing when a cloud gets behind it. (This seems to affect the blisters mostly, with the second one after the cockpit seeming to be the worst offender.) The only instrument that doesn't work in FSX is the homing indicator and I doubt I'll miss that at all!

    I see, when it is starting to be made... let me know.

    Great model guys, thanks again

    Glad you like it Huub.

    And good that you're back into Fs9. FSX and P3D is ok for the glitteratti, but the real people are here with Fs9 and the CFS's................................kidding of course!

    I'm doing a couple of other versions of the 177. Just finished the Hs293 version, and there is a 'geheim!' version as well.

    Cheers

    Hi Robin,

    As haven't seen this error (yet) I wonder do you see it immediate after loading or after a while or after a particular action? As I haven't seen the error, my first thought was that it might be a corrupt file.

    Cheers,
    Huub

    It might be worth adding it to the 'Old Modules' permission in the FS9 .cfg.
    Seems to work with most cranky gauges and modules, although I've yet to see this one.

    hey Robin --

    When did you download the model? Did this occur the first time you selected the He177 for flight? I haven't seen this error either and I helped with the initial beta testing. Huub's assessment may be the ticket as there might have been some file corruption during the download process. I would try deleting everything and then download and install a fresh copy. Hope this helps.

    I'll download it again & see what happens.

    Bit frustrating, & I'm sure it'll come right.

    Regards,
    Robin
