andyjohnston Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Well I guess I can't not enjoy that ;) thanks! Spent way too much time using these sims... FS 5.1, FS-98, FS-2000, FS-2002, FS-2004, FSX, Flight, FSW, P3Dv3, P3Dv4, MSFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napamule2 Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Andy, I am honored! I dug this up from 2008 because I was working on VTOL FDEs and, guess what? They fit th e Transformer. They need a little more work but I almost got it 'right'. People just don't appreciate how much work it takes to make something like this. I do because it would take me YEARS to learn - that I know. I am 79 yrs old now - 'old dog..new tricks', and all that. Thank You for this marvelous model. I enjoyed having it in MY stable and working on it. Will make another video when I get it 99.9%. Busy right now but next week will finish the job. Check this: it actually has JET engines and it does 450 kts! Not 'real'? Too bad because MY transformer (in airplane mode) goes FAST, can float, and lands at 5 kts (in transformer mode). Too much fun already. Cheers.

andyjohnston Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I'm the one who should consider myself honoured. That someone dug out that model which is over ten years old! I actually took one of my old FS-2004 models and turned it into the Transformer. Interesting to see how it works, let me know how you progress. Spent way too much time using these sims...

napamule2 Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Like I said, am busy this week, so will get on it Monday or Tuesday. Will let you know. I also downloaded some of your other models you put out 'way back when'. :-) . The FDEs I have now can make jets go Mach 4.1 / 2500 kts yet land 5 kts. I had one go up to 600,000 ft and back down (no gauges). Crossed the Atlantic in 3 hrs (at Mach 3) while only using 80 gals of fuel (hehe). Real? No! Who cares! Cheers.

andyjohnston Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Oh, I've had aircraft that would do that. I've updated my Space Shuttle for use in P3D and it can go twice around the world. The max speed in P3D is much lower than it was in FS-2004/FSX. Spent way too much time using these sims...
