Gyrocopting Fun!

One of my collection of Gyroplanes/Gyrocopters in my FS 2004/FSX Hangars.

Delightful little machines, and LOADS of fun and frolics!

I am having lots of fun, hopping from one farm strip to another in the California Central Valley farmlands and orchards, where this shot was taken.

Wonderful set Paul...

I guess one could call that really bugsmashing about the cabbage patch...

There are a few of those at several bugsmasher fields we frequent and there is one at a home on the river which is pulled by a boat. we see that one quite often during the summer and it is flown/owned by a minister.

Guess the minister has all the help and guidance he needs from above when flying that contraption of 500 parts all flying in unison looking for a place to have an accident...

Looking good, Paul
You got some nice grass textures, but only close up!
What is your Mesh and Texture resolution settings? Your system should handle max.

Ta Lads...!

Default setting:
Mesh = 3m
Texture = 1m

Land details ticked.
Ground scenery shadows ticked.
Water Effects = Low 2x...(to look sensible!)

All other Scenery settings are maxed.

Apparently care is required when selecting the most suitable/optimum; "Mesh" and "Texture" settings!

I have a number of free "Grass" texture programs which I try. The one above is the free REX grass textures....("detail1" in the FSX Texture Folder).

Looks like a good way to get up close, and have a good look at things while buzzin around the country side, thanks for sharing the pic's.
