Hi again.....

since your working on this beutifull scout plane, would it be possible for you to try and work on the following improvements for the 'Fiesler Storch'?


This is a 'humble' Request and I fully understand that you are all extremly busy with more 'important' mods but this little aircraft has so much offline potential!

1. Swap p39 cockpit for early stuka (remove sights if possible & side window 'dive bombing' angles, if possible)

2. use of gunner (if possible), stuka will do

3. Improve wheels, (if possible) for more 'realistic' look.

Again, thanks for all your hard work, everyone.

Thanks for your effort Fly-zo, good luck on removing that front glass & keep up the exellent work & don't worry, eventually someone will redo the fiesler storch...

Thanks everyone.

Fly_zo, i tried same,problem is that all I-16s share same cokpit hier.him file with u-2, we need new hier.him file for u-2,new U-2 class file is needed with new i.e: pilothier.him so we can move pilot pit forward (u2 glass show pilot position,wich is now wrong).About gungsight,im afraid gunsight is part of body mesh so we cant remove it.

thanks for info m8

...i can live with present state ... couldn't see the damn rudder indicator from those triggers ... well i can see it now :wink:


@SHVAK: thank you very much


all the best

I'm wondering whether a different cockpit might make it easier to get a good result for the U2VS. Basically, we need a 'pit that can be modded to have a plain windshield and no gunsight. What about using the I 153 M62 cockpit?:



It seems from this picture that the gunsight might be removable. The windshield frame would ideally be thinned, but that's not a major issue.

Another possibility might be the Fiat G50;



It's another very simple cockpit and I assume it would be possible to remove the gunsight. Maybe the optically flat section and its two support frames could be deleted to leave just a plain windshield shape?

It's possibility in I-153, but cockpit from I-16 looking better. :roll:

Thanks for trying this. I think with some more work the I-153 'pit could be made acceptable for the U2VS. Would removing the gunsight by this method remove it permanently from the I-153 M62 and I-153P? If so, that's not good.

Unfortunately, the I-16 front canopy screen is inappropriate for the U2VS (any biplane really) and the reflector-sight glass will always be irritating if it can't be removed.

Do you know how to place the I-153 cockpit in the U2VS? I'm curious to see what it would look like, especially from a normal viewpoint, centred on the gunsight axis (your screenshot has a very raised viewpoint).

[fly_zo]

great efforts guys

i'm not sure if I153 cockpit is wide enough but if you make separate .him file it should leave default I153 cockpits untouched . Just need Mr.Jolly to include it in mod ....

my personal I153 doesn't have metal reticle anymore ...
