Looking at the software market for flight simulation products, including freeware, and having a real-life pilot's choice come to Second Life is controversial.<br /><br />"Flying Tigers": mentioned brand is known for being banned from this group's regions in the past.<br /><br />"are not penny-turners when flown at the proper speeds": therefore they are penny-turners when NOT being flown at the proper speeds. Further they can be flown at NON proper speeds.<br /><br />"Our sim rules mandate a minimum throttle setting of 70%": workaround instead of getting a solution for the problem. It also gives an unfair disadvantage to all other products being scripted for proper flight behavior.<br /><br />"they are wicked fast": faster than modern jets and we are talking about a world war 2 fighter plane.<br /><br />"Sonic Aviation": linked primitives with freebie scripts. You can easily find comparable products in every puplic sandbox or freebie market.<br /><br />"purchased over 100 Planes": some people buy anything without having any preferences. Their opinion is nonrepresentational.<br /><br />"if I make a balloon": if you get your team back doing it for you, like this plane you are calling your work. You can take over the script from your plane and rotate the linear motor vector, the hover behavior is already in. But don't forget to decrease the thrust or you go offworld few seconds after takeoff.<br /><br />"love to see fine examples of your products": it's hard to miss them regardless where you go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840817664616826203.post-88967801446101029302010-12-02T00:20:03.605-05:002010-12-02T00:20:03.605-05:00Just think happy thoughts Anonymous,and one day yo...Just think happy thoughts Anonymous,and one day you will learn how to fly to.<br />:PJG2 Membernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840817664616826203.post-7992589176556283872010-12-01T21:32:24.330-05:002010-12-01T21:32:24.330-05:00One of the team, Sky Phydeau, is a real-life pilot...One of the team, Sky Phydeau, is a real-life pilot, so I believe that qualifies him as a "serious areonaut."<br /><br />Also, there were these comments by Vickster Khun, of Jg-2 and the Flying Tigers:<br /><br /><br /><br />There has been some bashing of aircraft on our group chat, particularly about Shana Aircraft's Fighters.<br /><br />Some people are calling them penny-turners, uber fighters, or whatever.<br /><br />Shana Aircraft are not penny-turners when flown at the proper speeds. Shana Aircraft, like many in SL, have a reduced turn radius at low speed.<br />Our sim rules mandate a minimum throttle setting of 70%. Flown at that speed Shana Aircraft are no longer penny-turners, but they are wicked fast and fun to fly!<br /><br />Quit whining and fly!Bixyl Shuftanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409792769906782556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840817664616826203.post-76025351362229823952010-12-01T06:17:47.370-05:002010-12-01T06:17:47.370-05:00This plane is what serious aeronauts call "ho...This plane is what serious aeronauts call "hovercraft" or "pennyturner" due to the lack of realism on the scripting part. It still stays in air at almost no speed refusing any kind of stall behavior, the turnrate makes it spin on a radius smaller than it's own size. Generally said it's made for fast, cheap ownage rather than delivering any flying experience.<br />The model is obviously based on perfabrica's FW 190 using photosourced textures, which btw is frowned upon by every serious modding community, not to mention any potentially copyright or eula violations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
