Hi All,
I just released a video covering what I think about the new SP2. I believe some interesting points were made, hopefully it will be helpful to JF and potential buyers of the aircraft! Max

Hi Max,
Regarding the ground friction - age old FS problem as referenced by many many threads elsewhere (e.g. http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?257242-Great-news-Unrealistic-ground-friction-in-FSX-now-cured-!! https://fsdispatch.wordpress.com/2013/01/12/ground-friction-solution-for-fsx/ ) Basically, there are external workarounds but if you don't use them then there will always be a disparity between handling in the take-off / landing runs and the low-speed taxying. For example, if I were to increase the rolling friction within the airfile to a level which gave the appropriate power settings for taxying then there would be no need for brakes because the aircraft would stop itself in a ridiculously short space. The fixes suggested in those threads (the FSUIPC LUA edit) certainly make a difference on the sideways movement straight out of the box, though not as effective on the straight line with addition of power. That's about all I can say on it for now, if I can find a way around it that can be entirely contained within the Arrow's fde then it will see the light of day at some point, probably after the Turbo Arrow release (I'll be bearing this in mind whilst working on those files). Cheers, Paul. |

Hi Max,
Thanks for posting the video. I'm glad that you are enjoying it aside from a couple of the niggles that you've mentioned.
The sound/prop RPM issue is being looked into with TSS, the producers of the sound-set. Here is my post on the existing thread in this forum regarding the sounds:
I'll be posting updates regarding that work here on the forum. Thanks Martyn |

Martyn,
Thanks for replying. It has been lovely flying this aircraft so far and I'm looking forward to seeing it completely fixed up. Max
