Aerosoft-Bronco X (FSX+Prepar3D)
By: Slavi_70 Date: March 14, 2012, 5:01 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco is turboprop light
attack, observation and counter-insurgency (COIN) aircraft. The
simple and rugged aircraft is able to take off from very short
runways (or roads) and can loiter for a long time over an area.
Expected Box-Release: 08.03.2012
The Bronco has its roots deep in the 1960s when most military
aircraft were getting bigger, more complex and above all faster.
These aircraft did not work well in harsh conditions found in
jungles and even on carrier decks. The OV-10 Bronco was the
opposite. It was simple and rugged and could land on grass
fields and even carriers. These days their fighting role is
over but they are popular aircraft at airshows where their
unusual layout and smooth aerobatics make them welcome guests.
The Aerosoft OV-10 Bronco X was created with the help from
people who still fly them, the OV-10 Bronco Association, German
Wing. We created the aircraft very much as they feel it should
be done, as an aircraft that is incredibly fun to fly. We also
decided it was a great way to do an aircraft that has simple
systems done to a high degree of fidelity. If you master the
engines of the Bronco at the high realism setting you really
understand them. It?s the same with the electrical and fuel
system. It?s an ideal aircraft to take up for a half an hour
flight as it is easy. But to fully master the systems and
calling yourself a "Bronco driver" will take some time.
Features:
8 models (US Air Force, US marines, NASA, German Wing of the
OV-10 Bronco Association)
Some of the best 3D modelling ever done for FSX, using the
latest tools and insights
Highly realistic modelled Garret T-76 (Honeywell TPE331)
engines (we think this is the best representation of turboprops
in FS so far
Realistic start-up sequence with propeller start-latches and
engine instrument readouts
Realistic in-air restarts possible (normally not possible in
FSX)
Realistic engine wear
Custom propeller animations
Hot and hung starts (clearing engine after a hung start
possible)
Engine failures due to over torque or overheat
Engine flameouts due to icing when not using continuous
ignition
Working fire extinguishers
Electrical system fully custom coded with electrical load
calculated for every consumer
All aircraft lights are dependent on correct electrical
setup
Gauge needles vibrate due to uneven ground and aircraft
vibrations
Airspeed gauge needle vibrates close to stall speed
Lots of animations like oil cooler doors, Ram door, canopy,
windscreen wiper etc.
Smoke effects for engine fire, hung engine and smoke
generator on left engine
Fully working TACAN radio and additional modern COM2 radio
Fully functional Becker BXP 6401 transponder
Custom developed GPS with, map mode, direct to mode, cursor
mode, nearest station mode, hsi mode
Unique Checklist Gauge with the option to let the checklist
do the required actions
Engineer station gauge to visualise the electrical system
state
Hundreds of nonstandard sounds, you will even hear the
airframe groan when it is under G-load
Created with the great support of the OV-10 Bronco
Association, German Wing
Highly realistic flight mechanics (several test flights were
done in the real aircraft to verify the simulated model). Even
includes realistic stalls, spins and the dreaded Dutch roll
behaviour
Highly optimized for the best possible framerate. Most
gauges are in the modeldef.xml and there is only one VC section
defined
High detail Paint Kits
Aerosoft Launcher optional, no online registration necessary
Compatible with Lockheed Martin - Prepar3D
