Wilches Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Folks, did anyone here ´heard´ about Simon? I would like to contact him for he (or someone else) makes an upgrade on Firefly V´s 3D (one of my favs). I have an screenshot with a correct side-view pasted over a game´s profile to see exactly what´s wrong with the shape. Basically, the wing planform is OK, but the wingtank/radar pod should be a little shorter. The real problem is the fuselage. The whole tail needs to be lifted up, so doing this almost all the profiles issues are solved. To finish , a bit more pointed spinner and the upper canopy frames (left behind for unknown reasons). The wing bomb pylons must be placed more closer to the fuselage - they´re too close from the rockets rails. All in all it´s a Beta model. I´m plenty of illustrations, photos and side views if anyone want it. If I had a 3D Tool I could make it by myself, but it´s not the case. Looking for Simom!!!!! Quote
MigBuster Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 You could PM the guy - it should send an email to him also. He'll be glad to hear from you no doubt Quote
Wilches Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 By the way, the ´Fairey-Youngman´ flaps doesn´t work in that plane . Would be nice to have it as it was... :yes: Quote
Wilches Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 This video shows how this flaps works!! Quote
Wrench Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Simon left the community some time ago. Hence, you'll note the Firefly is listed as a "Beta". I wish he'd pop back...that Avrocar could use some tweeks too Wrench kevin stein Quote
