C130 remodel for Orbiter

[TheTom]

maybe like this?

Doesn't seem too wrong

Btw. the wheels are far too small. The main tires should be about 56"x20" and the nose wheels about 39"x13"...

[GATTISPILOT]

Thanks
I increase the size some of it didn't have to increase the wheel hold area.

On the hold area I basically followed the sides.

[GATTISPILOT]

thanks. On the flaps trying to follow the sequence/code. for the outside left flap it is

<!-- Volets

- <animation>
<type>translate</type>
<object-name>voletG1</object-name>
<property>surface-positions/flap-pos-norm</property>
<factor>0.70</factor>

<x>1</x>
<y>0</y>

<x-m>2.153</x-m>
<y-m>-9.882</y-m>
<z-m>3,720</z-m>
</center>
- <axis>
<x>-0.105</x>
<y>-0.700</y>
<z>0.060</z>
</axis>
</animation>


so it translates.70 in the x direction (Is the x direction left/right from the rear of the plane? ) and .45 in the z (z is front to back?) and then rotates down. right?

Hi GATTISPILOT

And yes it's right. But the three actions are simultaneously starting with the last.

Rotation about a specific axis, displacement along Z and displacement along X.

But I repeat the 3 occur simultaneously

[GATTISPILOT]

Thanks so they all 3 go at the same time. But not sure why the x left/right movement

[Gijs]

For the correct directions of the axis, see http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:3D_Aircraft_Models

Hi Gijs,

Unrelated to the C130, but I went on IRC there is little to show you something, but you were not present. The magazine French Micro-Sim have a whole page on FG 2.8 in number 225 of October.

[Gijs]

Ah nice! I like MicroSim
I remember they wrote about us before -> http://wiki.flightgear.org/FlightGear_N ... n_the_news

[helijah]

Yes. It was me who had already scanned All scan are here http://helijah.free.fr/Micro-Sim/

[GATTISPILOT]

Thanks. that helped out

[helijah]

Wow GATTISPILOT

It's Orbiter picture ? Very nice:)

Regards Emmanuel

[GATTISPILOT]

Thanks, yes it is. and now it has cargo in the hold

[helijah]

Very nice GATTISPILOT

At this rate of, you'll have us a little video for that we see better results

Regards Emmanuel

[GATTISPILOT]

Well I am working on trying to get her in the air.

I tried searching on where to set thrust,... But with no luck.

Hi GATTISPILOT

I know the wait was long, but here! Full C130 is available here:
