Suchacz Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 Did your GF manage to flight, fight and land with zero experience? :shocking: That's what I would call "Veni, vidi, vici" :D Per aspera ad astra!

Witchking Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 I must say, It is getting a little disappointing waiting week after week. But its still hard to not come here atleast 4 or 5 times a day to check for an announcement..."1.2.4 and UH-1 released".

Corvus Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 Well she did great for a rookie! On easy or sim mode? It was full sim mode:) Did your GF manage to flight, fight and land with zero experience? :shocking: That's what I would call "Veni, vidi, vici" :D It was her third or forth flight and first sucessful landing (around 40 min of total flight time). Landing was almost good- I've just forgot what was the key command for drag chute, so she stopped on grass. You should hear me yelling "press left control P! Nothing! Ok, ok so right control P! Nothing..." I was so busy giving her directions that I've almost forgot to drop down my landing gear:P My YT channel https://www.youtube.com/user/corvuscorp81

A wheel castor is pretty inexpensive. I think I'd wait until we saw more about what the software is going to give us to work with. But, it sounds like a cool project. :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] There's no place like 127.0.0.1

KLR Rico Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I've been checking in every now and again, waiting for the 1.2.4 release, but with the nice weather comin' around I spend less time indoors on the sim and more time outside flying R/C planes and going on motorcycle rides. Normally I'd throw in an hour or two in the evening for sim time, but I've been building a 1/5th scale piper cub, so that's been the main after-hours entertainment. i5-4670K@4.5GHz / 16 GB RAM / SSD / GTX1080 Rift CV1 / G-seat / modded FFB HOTAS

WildBillKelsoe Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 Marry her quick! BTW which one was her? I'd assume she's the T-toad. Quick learner that one. I can imagine after 5 years of marriage, she comes and say: "Honey, how about some air to air refueling?" And that would mean getting off a really nice sess.
