A Privat Project: TU-104 reworked

[walterleo]

Hi friends:

I am working on a reworked Tu-104. There exists a very good Tu-104B by Michael Stepanov made even better by new flight dynamics by SURGER. For the Tu-104A exists a model made by Tu-104 PROJECT. This model with Stepanovs panel was reworked for FSX.
But some things are still missing:

Stepanov´s panel does not present the functions of the real airplane according to its Aeroflot manual from 1976 had, especially the NAS-1 Doppler Radar navigation system, some advanced functions of the RSBN short range navigation system and a working weather radar.

I have included that advanced functions in a reworked panel:





The A-model has a bug of the visual representation of the brake chute (it comes out and disappears).



The B-model does not have this bug.





For the A-model exist various repaints, not so for the B-model.




Sorry that the B-model is 1,2 meters longer than the A-model, so the repaints for the A-model dont fit well for the B-model.


But using the A-model repaints on the B-model the brake chute and everything else work flawless.

For the moment I am testflying and tweaking the flightdynamics (fuel burn and climb) to come still nearer to the book values. But I dont know how to solve the repaint/brake chute problem complex.

An alternative sound is under testing.

Kind regards

I presume it's still FS2004 compatible too .... Walter ?

"IF SO" .... then I'll be into this .... like a rat up a sewer pipe .... as soon as I can find time to justify doing so

Hi Mark:

I tried it out with FS9 it worked more or less, BUT the Brake chute still disappears after deployment. So far seems it is no real FSX addon. It was also strongly critized at AVSIM.SU for that by a very competent person the late Kyrill Konovalov (YAK 40 e.g.). If you look at the time of creation of its files it is the Tu-104 Project Team´s edition of 2003 with Stepanovs panel from 2009 with its bugs left unchanged.

See that:

Kind regards

P.S.: Said that I will concentrate on FS9!
