NEW Carenado C-185 FDE update soon!

[bstolle]

Hi Folks,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
<o></o>
Just wanted to let you know that I’ve made a completely new set of FDEs for the Carenado Cessna 185 (based on their excellent 206). Quite a few people, including real 185 pilots, have tested these and seem to be very happy with them.
Thanx to Sky~6 and Glenn Davy (who has done all constant speed prop mods) for their encouraging input and work!
Not only e.g. the take-off performance is now according to the book (you can use it on really short runways at MTOM) but at a forward C.G. (e.g. the default loadout) it’s possible to do ‘real’ brakestand take-offs. That means you can balance the plane with the elevator and the tail stays up during the take off run.
I’ve sent the files to Carenado and most probably they are going to upload this patch soon on their website. If not it will be available here shortly

Best regards

I had a chance to fly your FDE changes last night, Bernt. Fantastic! The 185 is one of Carenado's best efforts in the looks department, and now it has flight dynamics to match. Anyone who's hooked on taildragger Cessnas needs this update.

Yeah I just wish they would nail this down on release... lol... it seems like end users are always fixing their FDE's

No doubt they make beautiful models, but they should be working on getting the fm's down argh

Thanx for your kind words

Bill, I didn't have a choice! You make absolutely fantastic airfields so we need planes that deserve to be flown in that kind of scenery (and which can actually use short runwaays )

I'll bump this so I can suscribe myself as I'm very keen to get the updated FDE too!

Any news on when it may appear?

I hope you don't have to do the same for the other models when they are released :isadizzy:
