Hi guys,
i am new in this forum and a new modeler (i supose for that)
i am a fan of sailboats especially those of the past.
But from child i was excited for the aircrafts (like every child i wanted to become a pilot)
Probably someone knows me from VS and VSF forum
Here is my first aircraft in progress. Hope to finish it

Hi Kostas,

welcome here. Very nice start on the Blackbird. I really like the Blackbird, the SR-71 is an amazing aircraft.

Your model looks great so far, looking forward.

[Deutschmark]

Super nice!

[kostas]

a correction of previous post .... Flaps: OK ..... no not OK. i forgot the elevators So i replaced the flaps with elevators

first flight testing the wheels



but i was not able to make their wheels rotating and steering
I noticed that all the airplanes which i have download with retractive wheels have the same problem.
DM, what do you thing, is that a game issue or something which i have made wrong?

[Deutschmark]

Its a game issue, gear X will not let wheels roll or turn, I been the only one so far that has been able to do wheels rolling and turning in gear up and down, but its not a easy thing to do in VSF and it takes many try's to get it right even for someone like me that knows how its to be done as each gear is different and has to be planed way far ahead wile making the model, so to make it easy on your self just use gear X and live with the way it is in the sim, its nothing you are doing wrong.

The model looks real good there kostas
