FSX Native Viscount

Post by DarrenL »

FSX and also a FS9 version on Simviation too. Both come with a virtual cockpit.

Tks for the HU Darren. While a VC for me is about as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike, I'm sure the FSXers among us will love it ;)

I've downloaded and given it a quick twirl. Only criticism so far is that it sounds like a Cessna!

Actually, it sounds like a King Air...

Get some better Dart sounds for it, if you can. The only ones I have are from Rick Pipers HS Argosy.

Best regards

I copied in the sounds from Rick's Viscount (same thing I expect) :)

No.. I've never ridden anything as slow as a Harley but I'd have thought the vibration would have shaken any ash out of an ashtray fitted to one :lol:

Since getting a widescreen monitor -- and only ever knowing FSX -- a virtual cockpit is now a virtual must-have for me. I've been wondering what classic British prop plane I could take on next, so I'm off to take a look. Thanks for providing, Jens! (And, Darren, for the heads-up!)

No problem. I also use a trackIR now as well which makes it amazingly realistic, once you use it you don't go back :)

Yes.. and TrackIR would remove (to a large degree) the problem you're having with the yoke intrusion on the 780 as you'd simply look over/around the yoke. Another 'hidden' cost of running FSX ;)
