Doesn't look like any of the default paints have the chin scoop interior painted either. I don't think it's possible to do it without coloring the belly radiator inside as well.
Be nice to get some definitive word on this from the Shockwave Powers That Be, though. And I'm still waiting to know whether this update features the new fuel mixture system.

Re: Wings of POWER P51 "Mustang" UPDATE v.1.2 RELE
I've got a new system on order so does this mean that after I install the original P-51, all I have to do is install v1.2Scott - Shockwave wrote:
NOTE:
This version will update all previous versions (original release and v.1.1) to v.1.2.
Also, are you able to install to another directory (Golden Wings III)

You can see the difference in the gap of the starboard flap verses the port flap in the recent 1.2 update VID/movie.... just watch closely as the camera rotates from behind the aircraft port to starboard... I don't think an adjustment in the .cgf file will work... it looks like the problems in the model file itself.Meso wrote:you can see it better when you watch the plane from the front side. the rightwing flap is if i recall correctly lower then the left one. (looks like they dont extand the same way)

Much as I like the update, I have a few remarks:
1: No matter how far I pull back the stick, I cannot get the tailwheel steering to engage.
2: Even when holding the stick back during take-off only slightly, the plane lifts into the air from a tail down attitude. I would expect that first the nose would come down after which you have to give more back pressure to take off.
3: Does she not glide a bit too much during landings? From the pilot of a ‘real’ P-51 I heard that the prop gives so much drag that she loses speed quite easily in the landing configuration. I seem to need more runway than with the Thunderbolt.
She bounces quite easily, only when I pull the nose up so much that I get a stall warning just before touchdown am I consistently able to avoid a bounce.
All in all, the difference between the p-51 and P-47 in take-off and landing characteristics seems to have diminished with this upgrade. Is that correct?

P-51 Update
Does anyone know if I need the P-51 1.2 upgrade?
I purchased and downloaded the P-51 in July 2006. I noticed the upgrade 1.2 was released in June 2006. Did my download automatically come with the update or do I need to download the update and install it anyway?
Keep the shinny side up and the dirty side down!
