• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FS2004 EC155B

Nate, thank you. What are those tools which are you using to tweak the helicopter parameters? They look very interesting! :scratchch
 
one almost ready to be sent to Sergio's paint booth...

Ok...so the front part of the doghouse has been bugging the crap out of me....finally decided to do something about it!

Basil-two totally different aircraft there...The one you depict is a AS365 Dauphin. This is the EC155, a larger faster version of the Dauphin.

However... doesn't matter... eventhough you could create a SAR Helicopter with yours development.
And then put on a USCG repaint... :) - just if you like to do so...
 
Once the model is released, and you feel like doing a fictive repaint, by all means....I will only be modeling real world aircraft....
In the mean time, during the painting of this, Sergio noticed the lines didn't match where the fenestron meets the tail boom....So after fighting with it (looked fine in 3ds, but then was messed up in Gmax, then looking fine in Gmax and being messed up in FS) it has now been fixed...

Updated the screens again, and started getting some of the antennas done on the Toho Air Service News Bee.....

Looms great! I've once seen an ec155b of the Bundespolizei which was in a more military green spec, dispite the lm normally wearing the blue one has displayed here (which looks amazing!). Well done!
 
Some new shots....Camera has been installed and so has the wiring for it. Also added the cables going to the rear antenna (hard to see in the shots) Camera is movable just like on the Bell 412

Nice work so far...

Will there be two Models, one with the Camera and one without? Just to be sure, they are removable...
for using the Helicopter with other Company liveries, which do not fly with cameras mounted on...
 
Basil-this is the absolute last time I will tell you....I am making real world A/C. Please look at the pictures, and you will see which direction I am going in.
 
Still needs pilot models. If you don't want to do your own, Antaris did some heli pilots a while back.
