    Would have been a definite sale if it had a tank or bucket.

    Of course TG probably said the same thing about the 737-200....

    this is is an outstandingly fine flying chopper!

    Does anyone also have the Dodo and can compare? I love the Dodo. Pretty much made me abandon any other helo, but the graphics are getting pretty dated (never were a strong suit), and I don't fly it much anymore. This one tempts me. Does it model VRS? Translational lift?

    Hi,Just a small question here, but has the pilot been modeled to the correct size? He seems a bit small compared to a real shot of the aircraft.

  14. #14
    Hmm... yea, looks like the proportions are a bit off.. or maybe it's the angle? Heard it's coming with 4 paints.. a bit handful, but I guess if the paint-kit is good, more paints will come later.. especially when Jeansy is the one who did them. Speaking of, that blue paint is really nice!

    Not all humans are the same size.......just sayin

    pilot definitely looks undersized. i recall their ch47d also had a tiny pilot.

    kw's pilots here look about right. i've been on a b407 and it's not big side to side.

    Ha! I flew that very same -58D tonight, but with the doors off w/hellfire's because that is what I see most of around the stage fields.

    The MV 407 looks really really nice. I agree that the pilot looks underscale, but, the rest of the bird looks very well modeled. I am going to have to give it a close look to see if I want to pick it up. Keep those screenshots coming please.

    agree, mv407 looks good and if the boss allows, i'd get it. and i know exactly which repaint i'll do.

    just hope mv has a streak of being perfectionist like Dino with his jets, to address the pilot scaling and other issues. just a mdl issue, texture sheets can stay the same.

    I doubt it, because there are no 737 airtankers... There is however, a firefighting 407. And its made a name for itself here in California. Guess we don't get one in the sim world. Some of us prefer mission oriented aircraft to fly, because there are very few times I feel like sitting down for 30 minutes and pretending a flew a corporate executive to a nearby city for a power lunch... Thrilling as that may be...

    Any Pics available, Ive looked at the Paint kit, it seems like it could be complicated to figure out But I would give it a try

    One bird/version at a time. We've stated that if sales are good we'd consider an 'expansion pack' which would include different versions of the helo.

    First impressions after about 30 minutes are good but its putting a real hurting on my computer. One thing that always hurts my system is when the heli kicks up dust.That cloud sometimes halfs my fps and I get the stutters.Old I7,2.6,4 gigs ram,Vista 64, 2 gig Nvidia GTX660 ti.
    FM is good and does not suffer from the dreaded floats when you dump the collective.Heli feels heavier and controls are much thicker than 206. Makes for a good trainer,sight seeing docile model.
    Maybe a reboot and defrag is needed but she looks, flies good and one of the best soundsets Ive heard.I should know because I suffer from 30% loss in both ears from 15 years in 206s.
    With the performance hit it handles like a wet blanket has been thrown over it and I dare not venture into Orbx land.
    Very good effort and now we need a 500.


    PS_ What realism slider settings are you guys using? Mine are all maxed to the right. I found the actual POH but nothing relating to FSX. Its kinda wonky handling.I also turned off A2A accu feel.Saitek X52 hotas,rudder,trackir.

    All your fun rotary related flight dynmamics should come when HTR is incorporated into the FDE.

    Hmmm, haven't tried HTR. Concerned about the way it works as an external program adding another layer of connection and complication to FSX. Do you use it without issue? I'll look into it again.

    but you're saying none of that realism is there without HTR?
