    Luftwaffe Flettner Fl282

    My next project in progress : The Flettner Fl282 of the German Luftwaffe in WWII.
    Original is the Flettner Fl282 Beta2 by Mark Adams from year 2006.

    Just have one big problem with making functional VC. Perhaps i will upload the Fettner without thees working gauges. Think someone (much better then me) will find it an interesting job to do the working gauges for the VC. Will try a little to do it myself.... but i think someone else will do this much faster (and better) then me.

    First shots in P3D V4.5 (working and flying around)








    And the VC as it is today... (till now)

    Klaus,

    A big thank you for taking on this project. I enjoy your work and look forward to you completing her.

    I have no aircraft conversion/designing skills and thus am grateful for all of the hard work that goes into aircraft conversion/design.

    Thanks again,

    Rob

    Guten Morgen Klaus,

    as I presume that your Kolibri would be only for FSX or later sims
    I' m not shure to be able to help you, but I can try for the gauges,
    I presume that for the primary flight instruments as speedo, altitude and vs
    that would not be a problem for you. I imagine that the engine and pitch
    indicators might be a problem.
    As I have the FS2004 version I can try to make a working 2D panel with
    gauges that will be usable than in a VC.
    Best Regards
    Yours

    Guten Morgen Michael :-)

    that sounds fine. Would be a big help on the way to make this one flyable for all the others here.

    Thanks in advance.

    Moin moin Klaus,

    as you will see she flies with a basic 2D panel.
    The most problematic gauge was the "Blatt Winkel Stellungsanzeige"
    on the upper line at the right.
    In reality it should show the pitch of the rotors.
    Hmmmm I cheated a bit, but with more power on the engine the gauge also shows more angle
    I said I cheated a lot but it works and shows what it should show in reality.
    Ok I will now see if I can integrate the side panels.
    But really I fear that this would not be possible. But you might use the standard german
    engine gauges as used in O. Fischers Ju 52
    Now it is almost tomorrow and a bit sleep will be welcome
    Best regards
    Yours

    Nochmals Guten Morgen,
    here the outcome of my "Fruehsport" this morning
    All the gauges work (on my opinion as they should)
    I hope it might be of some help for you
    All the gauges I used in this panel have been also used on other panels
    I yet published without any problems. Just the "Blatt Winkel Anzeige" gauge is new
    and done by me (a modification of an other existing gauge)
    Best regards
    Yours

    Hi Michael,

    I also was there. Just in the first days in war with special forces "lighting" targets with laser. Just not far away from the hometown of my wife. 😇 Came back many years later to all this places. Today i have a own home there for hollydays and many serbs are friends of mine.

    As live play cards 😁

    Greetings
    Klaus
