That looks EXACTLY like the ADF radio we had in the UH-1's I flew in the Army back in the late 70's!

[Rangi]

Thanks for reposting the pics here ebabil. Looks like it is really coming together nicely, I hope he can get some good help for the systems and FM.

I have posted in thread a few times but every time I visit here. I recall how RAAF have used these sweet rides in training missions as they split blue and red F-18 fighters in mock attacks. Where they have fighters in cover escort protecting the DHC-4 Caribou as an enemy red forces tries to find as a target.

 

Its been a vehicle of choice for many purposes down under including transport supply runs and emergencies etc

 

Thats right I posted here:- https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3105560&postcount=149

 

Would be nice to have this as a historical muched loved RAAF bird and use it in sim.

 

I hope soon thanks for pics also. :thumbup:

Is this project still alive?

[Jester986]

Hope this is still alive, it would be a cool aircraft to have.

[Jacks]

Yes the project is still alive since a few days ago they posted a pic of the control column on their FB Page. Search tailored radials. They are a small team modelling a large aircraft and so it will likely take a long time. Best place to check for updates is on FB.

 

BTW, the texturing of the cockpit components they have shown on FB are very impressive..........

I think they are working on another platform, P3D

[WinterH]

They were still continuing with DCS version too, but been quite a while since the last update.

Still going. More work on the internal than external currently as my dev pc has taken a shit. But the developer of the internal is still cracking away!

[Jacks]

Hey guys how is the cockpit modelling going? I regularly check your Facebook page but have seen an update for a while.

Hey there any news here? I would love to see this plane in DCS.

[Jacks]

Thought I would reignite this thread since discus has posted a few new pics on facebook. Looks like this project is still alive.

[Robert31178]

link or post pics please? I don't have FB

[Automan]

A pair of screens seen on their FB page

 

 

 

And a note:

P3D will come first as far as I can see it because here I can code the subsystems for the electrical / hydraulical system, engine management and crew interactions. I'm on my "home turf" with that in P3D. When we have a functional aircraft and the working logic behind it it is easier to take further steps (DCS, or maybe X-Plane 11).

Wow nice

 

They recently posted on their FB, glad to see them still working on it!

Looking forward to it ! We need these old trucks in DCS ;)

[mechatoine]

Beautiful project so far. Excited to see what comes out of it.

[cassidy0998]

Curious if there are any updates on this project? Would absolutely love to see the Caribou in DCS. It's a fantastic aircraft!

Did this project die? After flying the old girl in MSFS, I could not see a more fitting cargo plane for our future Vietnam scene.  Hope to reignite this one! It is a blast to fly in VR on MSFS.  Would probably be my go-to cargo aircraft. Below was me flying out of Creech to give a demo of what it would be like in DCS.  All ion VR.

 

[Devil 505]

Whoever was going to start this for DCS should seriously team up with the people who mad the one for MSFS and look at bringing it to DCS.  I did an entire thread on why this aircraft would be right at home in DCS world. They way they conducted air to air refuel for other aircraft in Vietnam was insane.

[Saguanay]

Love to see this in CAF SAR Yellow.

[Discus177]

Well the MSFS team came out with that pretty quick, I would be interested to see the wireframe for the model itself. I ended up starting a business which has consumed me, prefer flying on MP these days. When time permits I might get back into it.
