A plea for the Hs-129B tuning - Zoltann - 11.12.2007

Dear modders,

I know you have christmas coming up but maybe sometime thereafter you could polish up that little gem Hs-129B, big friend of the landsers.

1. The later series Hs-129B2 were equipped with rear view mirror.
2. The MK 101/w.30 rounds was upgraded to the MK103/w.100 rounds. :twisted:

Any chance for that pretty please? :roll: (or changing the ammo to 100 rds for the MK101)

Ah well,
thanks Zol.

I wonder if it would be possible to place the gunsight outside the cockpit just in front of the armour glass? Might be difficult I suppose...

IMO also the cockpit from, say, the 109G6/AS (with Erla Haube) would be a better choice for this aircraft. The 110 'pit never seems right to me due to the lack of a rear bulkhead Confused

hock:

or... possibly the Beaufighter... perhaps?

But yes the 109G6/AS would be a nice choice. Pity bout lack of dual engine gauges... Sad

Ah - never thought of that :oops:

- Brophmeister - 11.12.2007

Yes, I neer thought the 110 was quite right. Beaufighter would be good, or really any cockpit with minimal rear view from four o'clock through eight o'clock.

- ojcar - 11.12.2007

I would prefere the Beaufighter too...

Re engine gauges - weren't they positioned on the inside of the engine nacelles due to the cockpit being so small? I'm not sure that the Hs129 had duplicate engine gauges in the cockpit...

- Zoltann - 12.12.2007

Yes Username,

The ENG intruments were on the nacelles.
I prefer the dual ENG and german style cockpit of the ME110 as is now.
Granted, the rear vision is a compromise that doesnt sit well.

With my skills I really need more trigger time, so 100 rds MK101 (or historically correct MK103)
would make my day.

Bye, Zol.

Hey Guys,

So you just know I'm working on a mini-campaign for the Hs-129B. It will have 4 to 6 missions, perhaps a track or two and might be ready for distribution by the weekend.

I've been flying this bird and it is fun and challengiing too!

- VT-51_Razor - 12.12.2007

At least from the outside, that cockpit sure looks allot like an IL-2!! Maybe, with the expertise gained from the efforts of the cockpit skinners, you could exchange German gauges for the Russian ones in the IL-2. :?:

- Brophmeister - 12.12.2007

Hmmm yeah, mabey an IL2 with a massively chunky armour plate behind the seat would fit all right.

i will try my best but the upgrading the gun rounds/ammo is a no no im afraid
