Thread: WWII Trainers?

  1. #26
    As the graphic abilities of the computer flight sim have improved, what is possible has increased. However the perfect is the enemy of the good, to achieve cutting edge quality work has increased the work load to the edge of what is financially possible even for very dedicated developers.

    FSX incresaed the standard, but there are fewer offerings due to the present level of expectations.

    Regards to all: T

    Nothing wrong with the slightly elderly 1:48 Monogram offering, and the T6/Harvard series was done to death in smaller scales.
    If you are hoping for something ridiculous like 1:32 or 1:24 it will be a long time coming ..........

    I don't know if it was intentional but that's an excellent analogy to the flightsm aftermarket as well!

    I built the Monogram 1/48 kit shortly after it was introduced. It is a really nice kit.
    My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.

    1:48 is just too small. I would LOVE a 1:32 scale T-6 to put on my desk at work.

    As you said, they've overdone it in other scales. It is definitely time for someone to release a larger scale version. My dad said there is a vacuform and resin large scale T-6 out there but I'm not quite ambitious enough to try building a kit like that yet. :mixedsmi:

    Have a go at it, you won't see anything from anyone like Tamiya or Trumpeter.

    I'm talking about a highly detailed model that can be built. I've never really liked those pre-built scale models.
