Helicopter pad

 

The old helicopters were taken to the scrapheap ...

There’s nothing new but they have been re-saved one last time in v1141.

Yes, more or less flyable in xp12, but at your own risk (crashing in x-plane won’t kill you anyway)

As usual these are freeware and commercial use or redistribution is NOT allowed.

Feel free to use them for your own fun and entertainment.

If you are a gifted 3D modeler or can get your hands on a decent -freeware- 3D-model, please, by all means contact me for permission to use my simple PlaneMaker models ‘under the hood’

-yes, I’d love to know if you are planning to do so.

Latest re-saves for v1141

Beware!  these are very simple models, most of then ‘PlaneMaker-only’ with 2D panels. Some come with 360º photobased views.

No further adjustments and updates done since v970...

Helicopter scrapheap

Life after the scrapheap?

some keep coming back... -see below

Bell UH-1H Huey

Still very much the old 3D-test version but now in v1141.

3D object by Emmanuel Baranger, PM model by me with (older) revision by Brett, extra liveries by FlightGear authors and NEW liveries by Henkfix -check the ReadMe.

Yes, does have a simple 3D panel now.

Files have been delivered to our local Helicopter Flying Curmudgeon hoping for a further check & update of the flightmodel.

Update  v1.0    (v1.01corrected windshield bug)

Flightmodel revised by Brett Sumpter (17-10-2021) Now available in 3 versions: the earlier Bell B205 / UH-1H Huey, the Bell B212 Twin-Two-Twelve and the Bell 412 / CH-146 Griffon.

Beware! this is still WIP - Read Brett’s notes (and other ReadMes). No liveries (yet) for the B212 & B412, though the Huey’s fit more or less.

Hughes H269

A re-save of Pip’s old v9 model -with permission, of course
