Bugatti P-110

AWESOME!!

Finally a freeware one.

I saw pictures of an electric R/C version and have been looking for a fs one ever since. I tried the old fs98 one in FS2k4 and it worked (sort of). Didn't look good though.

looking awesome Locke!

Looks better than the payware one IMO

Thanks, folks!  I'll get some more images up when I get home tonight.  Should be ready for texturing in a week or so!

Hey Locke,

Looking very nice!  I like the bolt work on the transmission casing in the nose area.  Nice attention to detail.  Good luck on it.

I had done mine (my version that is) long ago.  Not that gifted yet in details.

An absolutely incredible aircraft.  For its time, it was just to much to imagine.  It would have surely knocked out all the world records for aviation at the time if the loose nut 'adolf hitler' hadnt began his campaign to take over the world, which is what ended the P-100 project.

Good luck and keep up the excellent work.

I finished the exterior model, to a certain degree.  There are probably two or three more parts that need to be added or fixed.  But this is basicly what you're gonna see in the sim (minus the atrocious coloring! ).  I did take a few liberties with the cockpit, since good images of it are hard to find.  Plus I didn't think the setup (as I saw it) was ergonomic to a pilot (who will be added soon).

THE COCKPIT:







OPEN GEAR, ETC.



A GOOD PERSPECTIVE:



Is there anything anyone can see that might be wrong or need adjusting (withing reason)?  I want to get the parts correct before I start texturing.  It's maddening to get everything textured and then find out that a certain part doesn't fit!

Flight dynamics will begin in a couple of days!  Are you ready, Greg?

Looking awesome!!

I do think the tailfin cooling ducts were more rounded.

Yep let me know when and what you want me to do. That is looking great Itll be a pleasure to give you a hand on her. 8-)

As soon as I finish texture-mapping, I'll convert it and give you the basic parameters.  I'll also send over the Gmax file with the finished model, so you can check the reference datum, contact points, etc while you're doing the airfiling.

Looks wonderful!!!!! Great! I can't await flying it....

[Stubbedtoe18]

Yah, will there be guages in the VC?  (Sorry if that's a stupid Q, but there are some out there...)  And if so will they be custom?

It's looking really good now.  Thinking of releasing a model without the pilot too?

Looking real good Locke, keep it up!!

Well, as for the gauges, I was thinking about doing custom ones, but that is a science beyond me at the moment.  Perhaps if I get bored enough I might do that.  But for the time-being, the VC will have stock FS gauges or ones I find with other aircraft.

As for a model without the pilot, I guess I could do that . . . :-?

[Travis]

Well, she's finally textured!





I'll be finishing up with the modelling tomorrow, and then the airfiling work begins . . .

Still a long way from finished, but this is something of a halfway point.

The cockpit looks AWESOME!  :D Be proud! If you aren't, I'll kill you 8-)! No of course not, but it's really great!  :D
Will the exterior be textured a bit more, or does it keep blue?

PS: Can you add The texture template bmp's to the final package?
I and I think many others would like to repaint it...  ;)
