3 Helos We Need For FSX

[Flyboy208]

As a real-world helicopter pilot & FS rotary wing enthusiast, I would love to see these three modeled for FSX.

First off, the highly maneuverable Westland Lynx, Second, the heavy-lift Kaman K-MAX, and lastly the exotic and new Bell 427.

Just a thought.

Cheers! Mike :wiggle:

I think *think* there is a K-max in the works, I think a Mi-8, and Mi-24 would be nice...

[Flyboy208]

I forgot to add 2 of my fave Russian/Soviet heavy helos, The MI-12 and MI-26 ...

Mike :wiggle:

[MCDesigns]

yep, there is a Kmax in the works. I would love to see a Bell 407 and a Nemeth S-76 for FSX.

The 407 I have flown a bit, love to see the FADEC systems modeled correctly in FSX.

HH-3 Jolly Green!!!

[CG_1976]

USCG Pelican

[Flyboy208]

S-58



AH-56
Mi-24

[ColoKent]

...I was just thinking about this today:

- Updated, FSX-compatible SH-3 Sea King
- S-61L with a good paintkit
- Boeing Vertol 107: Civilian (New York Airways!!!!)

Absolutely fantastic. Can't wait! :applause::applause::applause:

[Mr.Mugel]

Those look good, both the 427 and the Lynx! Didn´t really know he have Lynx, too, explains why there are some flying around the place here sometimes... :d

I´d love to see Tim´s Mil-Mi 24 in FSX native, still hope he´ll do it some time... Very interesting beasts they are....

[Kavehpd]

Sea King and Chinook. Native models with proper rotors. No wonky wobbly disc with a faint texture paste on top!

[noddy]

I thought Alphasim were doing the Chinook and the Lynx or maybe not!

[michael davies]

Dano was doing the Chinook but events over took that project, Lynx I think was being redone by the original FS9 author, who's deployed a lot of the time and thats trail seems to have gone cold.

Mine wasn't offered to Alphasim, or anyone else for that matter, when it get's a little more progressed I might begin to think about where or how to release.

I do have an HH-3 lurking somewhere on my HD, I'll wheel it out into the sun and make a couple of renders and update later.

[Kavehpd]

Does it really matter?

The top three helicopter addon developers have a Huey on their list. One already released and two are coming along. Monopoly is yesterday's news.

[noddy]

I was just saying.

[Matt Wynn]

Mi-24, yeah want piglet to native his Hind, that'd get the blood pumping again! and Mi-26 Oh god yes please ! :icon_lol:

[kilo delta]

...an Aérospatiale Alouette III :)


EDIT...Oh, and an Augusta/Westland AW139

[CBris]

Gazelle and Bell 47 G3, G4 Brit Army.

The Lynx definitely, but preferably a skids version.

[Matt Wynn]

Chris, yes! the AH-7! fantastic bit of kit!

[Bone]

In the realm of sim-flying, I think everyone should be able to get what they want. My vote is for all of them.

[MudMarine]

I want a good "super snake" and a "frog"!

[michael davies]

As promised

[Henry]

The 3 i need are easy to fly, easier to fly and bleedin simple :kilroy:
i love the look but hate flying them
i always go backards:isadizzy:
H

[michael davies]

Grab the now freeware Alphasim S-55 and try that, if you cannot fly that after 30mins practice then you are clearly designated as one who will never fly helos LOL.

Michael

Addendum, ohh and if you cant, the FDE can be adjusted to make it very stable for learning basics.

Stunning renders Michael!!! :ernae:

[michael davies]

Thanks, but renders dont fly in the sim LOL, most models get to the same stage and I run out of puff these days, sad thing is most of the external modeling is done and doesnt take much time at all, 3 weeks for the Lynx in its current form and 2 weeks for the HH-3 above, its the last 20% that takes the rest of the 80% of time.

Still...one day...LOL

Michael


Stunning renders Michael!!! :ernae:

[deimos256]

my three choices would be......

Lynx (i miss the alpha one)
Sea King (miss this too)
Anything that's Soviet and huge!!!!!!!

[euroastar350]

I want to see a good Eurocopter AS355 Ecureuil/TwinStar...AS355F(Allison 250-C20F version preferred). This will make Michael Carr (MCDesigns) day :D

[Bjoern]

Freeware Bell 407 WIP:

[krazycolin]

What about a BK117?

You got that right George!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ernae::ernae::ernae:


What about a BK117?

Works for me, especially since there hasn't beeen a detailed model done for FS. I was at a hospital in Tulsa, OK a few weeks back (Dad was there) and they had a real nice EMS BK there, the pilots were pretty cool and let me tour it, wish I had a camera them.

[Flyboy208]

What about a BK117?

I hear that! Mike :wiggle:

[Techy111]

An FSX Gazelle would be fantastic.....and what about a native FSX Westland Wessex....yummmm..:kilroy:

Tony

[euroastar350]

As a personal wish......

Eurocopter EC130B4
Eurocopter EC145
Bell 230
Bell 429

[Piglet]

HOPEFULLY... AH-56 later this year. Or at least started!

Like your thinking.

[Seaking055]

Wasp Wasp my kingdom for a Westland Wasp lol

And of course a Seaking for FSX would be a dream come true.

[empeck]

Personal wishes:
Mi-8/-14/-17

Quoted for agreement :D

I'd like to see FSX version of Nemeth's Mi-2 and Mi-24 too...

[peter12213]

HOPEFULLY... AH-56 later this year. Or at least started!

If you made one of these Tim I would be a happy man, its just so unusual or peculiar just your style that then ehh!

[Quixoticish]

Like your thinking.

Wasn't there an FSX Gazelle in the works from a French developer?

[Bjoern]

Quoted for agreement :D

I'd like to see FSX version of Nemeth's Mi-2 and Mi-24 too...

...because they served in the polish army?

Well, at least that's the reason why I wanted the "Hip/Haze"...to recreate some east german helo operations. :d

[BASys]

Choppers we really need -


Any AI helicopter models.
H-92 Superhawk / Sikorsky S-92 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_S-92)
Uglybird - Bell 214ST (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cc/Bell_214-ST.png)

Absolutely brilliant work

The last of the few are on the final line now

[empeck]

...because they served in the polish army?

Because they serve about 10 kilometers from my home, and I see them over my head quite often :)

We have few Hazes in Poland too. Beautiful helicopters.

[jetstreamsky]

A nice new Bell 429 would be good too

[UKMIL]

Ha, yet more slagging of the UKMIL models, cool, no wonder i gave all this up thanks to people like you! at least they are free, not $50, and the best free ones you can get

you wont like my new native FSX Whirlwind then either, never mind

again, we already have them, but not to your liking

[Bjoern]

Because they serve about 10 kilometers from my home, and I see them over my head quite often :)

Reminds me of the days back in Baden-Württemberg where you could watch Blackhawks roaring out of/into Heidelberg and Mannheim at least every couple of days.

Close tie to the Hips.

[michael davies]

I think he ment Alphasim with their disc animation they did to represent cyclic inputs.
