Hi everyone,
Here's where I'm at on the Edgley Optica, Not to much to complete just a few bits to texture here and there.
P.s.
The Heinkel He-51 is still being worked on......

Awesome preview shots! I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Always liked this plane and the concept behind. Too bad it was scarred by a sad accident.
Thank you for doing this. It would be great for observation of nice scenery.

That thing is pretty cool. Can't wait to see the view from the cockpit!
Cool, I remember Hampshire Police air support using one Serial G-BMPF many moons ago, out of HMS Deadalus at Lee-on-Solent before getting their Islander.
Beautiful work as always Craig. This is one of those birds, that you stand back and wonder. . . .what were they thinking? lol

How frustrating must that be... to seat in a copter that cannot even takeoff vertically...
Fantastic exterior model, as always.
This ambiant occlusion effect integrated in these textures is really neat. :ernae:
No VTOL, but presumably much easier to fly than a real helicopter.
Great job Craig!

So, this morning i woke up from something in my dreams. The house was cold and i was wet from sweat from head to toe.. I blame it on the pizza last night.. So anyway, i get up and get on the computer and open soh up and theres a message waiting for me.. Dear Pam, would you please take a look at the flight model? Craig.. hey,do cows give milk?? Oh hell yeah.. Si I downloaded it and started my usual testing.. a tweak here,a tweak there, all small stuff really and mostly me being nit picky.. That was 5AM.. I just stopped flying it for a moment not six minutes ago. This thing is incredible fun.. Cruising speed 70 knots, max speed 126 knots, stall speed somewhere around 35 knots. It turns on a dime in the air and on the ground, and as long as you watch your speed,its one of the easiest birds to fly ive ever seen. Its a true delight and I'm really honored to be a part of it..
Is it just me or did he almost land in the undershoot?
Oddly enough I do fly out of the airfield in the video, Thruxton fact fans, and I've seen that Optica knocking around from time to time. My weapon of choice is the R-44 briefly seen towards the end of the film though.
Craig,
Creating a peculiar twin tail plane for Christmas will at least make you a kind of "honorary Piglet":ernae:

Nice! looking forward to this lone.
Neat!!
Brian
I can see why there were very few made... Forget you've left the engine running, exit left and get sucked into the fan
Found an interesting article from archived Flight International May 1979 HERE
Superb modeling work! I'll be watching for the release :salute:
Dave.
