Hi Calclassic friends
I'm a real commercial pilot and a avid flightsimmer new in the group and saw some other users created threads regarding the Libardo Guzman's Electra and some of my repaints I've made for it.
In close colaboration with LB. himself I've been developing so far for my own use an electra based on his model. So far I've made this:
- Improved flight dynamics matching the real Electra, (original model was based upon the default B350)
- Custom electra sounds based on real Electra recordings
- Real startup and shutdown propeller animations.
- Based on Fraser McKay's panel. I've created a more realistic photoreal panel, most of the original functions are kept intact but added some others like a modern GPS. modified sounds it so the reverse sound is heard only when you apply (F2) reverse and not upon touchdown.
Also F. McKay's panel was adapted for the old JR Lucariny's model therefore some fuel functions were corrected
- Repaints developed using my own created paintkit.
- Custom sideviews and wing views for the enojoyment of watching those mighty Allisons
Of course due respect for F. McKay I've not uploaded any modification or work done for the panel
I've tried to contact Mr. McKay but haven't received any reply for permissions. maybe some people here in CalClassic can put me in contact with him
I think Libardo Guzman's model is the best electra developed so far for any Flight Simulation, specially the accurate modeling that is better than FSX's KBT model
I'd like to share my work of 6 months for this model.
Here is a video I've created so you can appreciate some of the features and functions I've created for this awesome model that is keeping my old FS2004 very much alive.
BTW: About the accuracy of my repaints debated in previous posts: all of them were done using real photographs for each aircraft.
