[RELEASED] Rara-Avis Sims Bulldog Autogyro

Hahaha I feel your pain!! Need to force yourself to just fly 1 day a week at least mate :wink:

There’s integration in the free JPL/WB Cessna 152, and in the Payware Vans RV10 (SWS), Wilga and Mini 500 helicopter (Got Friends). That’s it so far I think. Oh I think the TBM has the option and one other Asobo/MS one I forget now, but I don’t use that. Either way you’ll be in a quite exclusive club if you pull it off but I’d love you for it even more!!

Look on FS.to for the plugins (search Sky4Sim). Got Friends moved theirs to their own website (in the Navigation Mods section).

EDIT: just looked — the other one is the Savage Cub/Grravel/Carbon

I would love a modern gyroplane, any model to tour the world in a realistic way, following roads and refueling at random small regional airports.

I just noticed there is no rotor RPM instrument in the Bulldog, which I think is quite an ommision for an autogyro.
Hope it will get added in an update!

Well i finally got mine, it’s really enjoyable i must say. It’s wonderful to have so much vision to the sides of the craft, as usually my view is partially obstructed by either the overhead or under-carriage wings in most other planes. My only worry is when i sit up a bit too high, i keep thinking my head is going to get chopped off hehe.

Compliments to the chef, another great creation :slight_smile:

This is awesome! The pre-rotor is really a fundamental and fantastic thing.
Did you have the time to fix the sound problem? Where if you turn off the main prop even with the rotor rotating the sound would extinguish? In other words do we have rotor sound now or just the prop?

I’m going to fly this a lot after the update, love autogyros!

The only way for the rotor to have sound at the moment is through FSRealistic profile. I still haven’t had chance to play with the wwise sound system.

If it works with FSRealistic I might have to undust it :slight_smile:

It works surprisingly well, I was impressed. If anyone hasn’t got FSRealistic I highly recommend it !

By me the aircraft will not move forward(brakes released)

Set your flight model to modern in the settings menu

There an ETA for this?

The update has been out for me on Just Flight since announced. Looks and flies great, really big improvement.
