Just a quick video to keep you guys updated on project Airwolf. In this video: - Updates to rotor animations (collective, sag, coning and blur effects). - Updates to Weapon deployment/retraction animations. - Flight Model improvements.
When you have this available, you got your first customer… Looks like the flight physics need a little tuning but she looks AMAZING! Thank you for all the hard work!
Airwolf is still one of the best looking helicopters to ever be built. I know it was mostly tacked on stuff for the show, but they did such a great job making the beast beautiful.
Amazing I can't wait to fly this on Xbox. I was 11 when Airwolf first aired. I remember watching it growing up. I still watch it all the time on BluRay. I was a Apache mechanic in the Army. Because growing up watching Airwolf I knew I had to do something in Avation.
Honestly can't wait for this, Ive been waiting for someone to do a good model of Airwolf for ages. And thank you dude, and to all of those that have helped, its gona be amazing, honestly can't wait.
I just stumbled onto this channel after reliving my childhood watching Airwolf episodes. I was looking for updates on whether or not the show was getting rebooted and here I am. This is amazing! If you're developing a game I hope to see how it turns out.
Rewatching the show, big kudos to the actual pilots that flew Airwolf in the show. They made is seem like Airwolf was a living creature and flying as smooth as a fish in water.
I can't wait until I can fly this on Xbox. I won't play anything else I will just fly for hours and hours. Airwolf, I am pretty sure is why I love helicopters to this day. Thanks :)
This looks really too good to be true.👍 With a Bell 222 cockpit, it must be much fun to cruise around with this chopper in MSFS. Can't wait for the 1st release, but good things need time.🙂
Looks fantastic!! One thing i notice is the red stripe on the tail rotor needs to be adjusted. It is a lot thinner than what your model currently has. It looks way to thick.
‘She flies, um, quite nice at the moment, there are a few glitches here and there’. Hearing this I was struck by a thought: you’re not Cpt.AirWolf, you’re Dr.Moffet! 😮
Looks great! I will definitely check this out once you release it. Greetings from the author of the original Airwolf Mod for the Operation Flashpoint! Also any plans for porting it to DCS? From what I gathered - it's pretty easy when it comes to geometry.
what color did you use to model this? Phantom gray Metallic is the true color, but the only sample I can find is the Caddillac version. Thanks. Nice Work!!
All helicopter rotor blades have a bit of sag to them, and the Bell 222 is no exception. They have to be able to flex in flight or they would snap under the strain.
likely not as I have several plans for additional airwolf content which I'd like to provide (free) to those who support the project. i.e. missions, scenery addons and improvements to the aircraft itself. Never say say never though.
All is well, I just took a break during the holidays to spend time with family. Project Airwolf is still alive and well. I'll hopefully have an update video I the coming weeks.
I'm actively looking for a dev who'd be able to assist in creating the lair so I'm hoping that and other additions such as missions would follow soon after release. For now my focus remains on the heli itself though.
@@cptairwolf your work looks brilliant so far and I was thinking of making a airwolf game if won 100 plus million on lottery are you guna try and add it some of airwolfs special abilities like stealth and the computer picking up targets and been able to fly really high
You can, they just can't be sold on the MSFS Marketplace. There a plenty of military aircraft with weapons from their respective developers with weapons but they have to be "neutered" if they are on the market place.
I don't have much experience with DCS and their SDK but if someone out there was interested in converted it after its release I'd be happy to collaborate with them. Would certainly be nice to see the weapons systems work!
Just that the project is still alive and kicking. I likely won't share any news until I'm able to announce something that will be available within days/weeks as I don't want to build up anticipation for something too far out of reach. Hope you guys understand.
Dude. After this please do it for Xplane 12. Xplane 12 does rotary wing dynamics way better than msfs. If you do it for Xplane Blade element theory will do most of your flight dynamics for you.
Certainly not vaporware but finding it hard to find time to work on the project as I'm employed full time and have other responsibilities. I'm likely going to try and make it a MSFS2024 release since that version of the sim is going to offer lots of new features that will be vital to making Airwolf a worthwhile addition to the sim.
As of yet, not in this newer version as Asobo doesn't allow "jet" like behavior when using the heli flight model. I'm trying to find a way around that before release though.
