The plane, the plane is tiny like a car!

Hey guys

 

I'm not sure if its a model problem but it looks to me in the plane viewer and in free flight like the Captain Sim 757 model is bigger than the QualityWings 757?

 

I'm not sure if its a scaling problem but someone please tell me they are the same size, the QW757 looks tiny on the plane selection screen :(

There are a number of things that can affect the size of the model in the preview screen. I would go by what you actually see in the sim.

You can zoom that preview screen (and rotate the model) freely, so size is completely relative. Some models have a different radius stored in the MDL right away, which influences the zoom in the preview window. I encouter this too from time to time. Has nothing to do with the "physical" dimensions of the model in the sim.

 

IIRC there was a tool around where you could adjust the radius in the MDL file. At least for some models.

OK, where's the plane driving like a car? You can't make a comparison with just one piece of data. ;)

Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

BTW: Should you want a tiny Hot Rod of a plane, try the Honda Jet.;) The download is free!! And the Hostess/Co-Pilot is part of the package!:cool:

However, you'll probably have to cope with a passenger in the small cabin as well!:rolleyes:
