Socata TB-10 and TB-20

[Martyn]

Thanks Tim and Dimus. The project has undergone a fair bit of transformation with the inclusion of the TB-10 variant and various improvements including new avionics and features.


We are aiming to start posting regular development updates for this and future projects which will hopefully prove to be interesting to at least some of you! They should also demonstrate why some of these projects take so long

Work has been progressing well on our upcoming TB-10 and TB-20 for FSX and P3D.


This week we have been coding the KR 87 ADF system which was added after several requests from our testers. The ADF will complete an already impressive set of avionics which includes a GNS 430 (or optionally the Flight1 GTN 650 if you own it), GNC 255, KN 62A, GTX 330 and Stormscope - a lot of gadgets for a GA aircraft and perfect for those IFR flights!


The KR 87 will be fully functional, with ADF and ANT modes, BFO (audio ID), flight and elapsed timers. The unit is located on the right side of the cockpit, just above the TKS ice protection unit.


We have also been busy adding the ground equipment. A control lock (fitted into the control wheel tube) and aileron locks (fitted to the ailerons) prevent any movement of the ailerons or stabilator. The control lock also prevents the ignition key from being inserted.


On the exterior of the aircraft we have added tie-downs and chocks, engine intake covers and a pitot cover. Don't forget to remove the pitot cover before flight or your airspeed indicator won't work!

Thanks Martyn!

I've recently been offered a ride in SX-ATK by Kyprianos and was amazed by its performance. Your rendition will certainly do it justice. Looking forward to it.

Here are a couple of screenshots showing the recently completed TB-10 variant. Differences compared to the TB-20 include a less powerful engine, fixed gear and wheel covers.

Looking Great Martyn

[Tim-HH]

That looks very good! Is the release still scheduled for this month?

Yes, that's still the intention

Do You have in plan any integration with other gauges/gps? Like for example with F1 GNT750?

We'll certainly consider any suggestions. We opted not to integrate the GTN 750 as its size would have meant removing several of the existing radio units (GNC 255, KN 62 etc). The GTN 650 was a straight swap for the existing GNS 430 and both serve similar purposes (COM1/NAV1/GPS).

Our first promo video for the TB10/TB20. Not long to wait now

[Dimus]

Looks great Martyn! Looking forward to it.

btw. Do You know which team worked on this model? It isn't look like model of AH or Hawk/Tornado/Canberra team but I might be wrong.

Not AH, but I worked with the same team as I did on the Hawk/Tornado/Canberra. Don't know who did the actual modeling though.

Credits for modelling on the Canberra are to Mark Griffiths and Marc Siegal. A quick check in the JF Tristar manual shows Marc Siegal is credited for modelling. Don't have the Hawk and don't have the Tornado installed at the mo.

Per manuals, modelling on both Hawk and Tornado done by Mark Griffiths.

Thanks - Rob

[Martyn]

The very talented Mr Griffiths was indeed responsible for the Canberra, Tornado and Hawk modelling/texturing. The TB10/TB20 models were created for us by IDS (https://www.facebook.com/InnovativeDevelopmentStudios/) as Mark was busy working on other projects (although he has contributed numerous modifications and additions to the models). All of the coding and other work has been carried out by our in-house development team (i.e. me and Rich).

Great model, if it had the gtn 750 install I would buy it. As it is can't really afford another 60 bucks just for the gtn 650.

[Anneke]

Released and downloading!

We'll look into incorporating it.

Mmm just installed in P3Dv3 but the airplane is not visible in the game. ....

If someone will make a released thread, we'll stickie it.
