I see you made the drop tanks enable able by fuel weight, I didn't know that was possible with a conversion, I may have to look into that.
I don't see the Lysander on the Alphasim freeware site, is it still payware? if so be careful about releasing it but by all means do it for your own use.
I'm only going to release ones that specifically say that there freeware in the readme, some of them although they released them as freeware still say that there payware in the readme so I wont be releasing any of those just in case.

Hi Mark,
Curious that the Lysander is no longer on the Virtavia/Alphasim freeware site.
It is available at Simviation and the readme states "These files are freeware. Please amend/distribute as you see fit."
However it may be a moot point as the model has automatic flap / slat control that I can't seem to get to work (not even the original model in FS9)
As for the drop tanks - I was able to isolate those model parts and assign them visibility conditions
This is the xml I use
Code:
<PartInfo> <Name>custom_vis_External_tank1</Name>
<Visibility >
<Parameter>
<Code>
(A:FUEL TANK EXTERNAL1 QUANTITY, Gallons) 0 ==
if{ 0 }
els{ 100 }
</Code>
</Parameter>
</Visibility>
</PartInfo>
<PartInfo>
<Name>custom_vis_External_tank2</Name>
<Visibility >
<Parameter>
<Code>
(A:FUEL TANK EXTERNAL2 QUANTITY, Gallons) 0 ==
if{ 0 }
els{ 100 }
</Code>
</Parameter>
This is the code that triggers the visibility of the racks if the weight on the payload station is greater than 10 lb.
Code:
<PartInfo> <Name>custom_vis_Payload_3</Name>
<Visibility >
<Parameter>
<Code>
(A:Payload Station Weight:3, pounds) 10 >
if{ 1 }
els{ 0 }
</Code>
</Parameter>
</Visibility>
</PartInfo>
Hope this helps
Gavin
