Yakovlev Ut-1 WIP

OctopusG returns back to MSFS with a new project Yakovlev Ut-1 as start of RESA (Romantic Era of Soviet Aviation) series.
OctopusG, known primarily as a third-party developer for DCS World (e.g., I-16 module, La-7 in development), returning to MSFS development. We previously worked on an Wilga and An-2 projects for FSX and Prepar 3d.

I love the i-16 in DCS. Wish you’d bring the AN-2 there as well!

How about an Ilyushin IL-18 or TU 114 as one of your next Russian projects, please :folded_hands:

Oooh this looks cool! Never heard of this type but it looks fun. Would love to see more Russian types in the sim like this. Any chance an I-16 could be brought to MSFS?

This engine must be noisy as hell. The exhaust is straight out. Love :heart: it

We have Po-2 for next and than we plan to make Il-14, but we will think later. Of course we want to make Il-14, Il-18, Tu-104,Tu-114. Tu-144. Dreams…:slight_smile:

For MSFS we plan to make only unarmed aircraft.

Well I hope my dreams come true :joy:

The polikarpov has an interesting naked radial engine. Trainer or bomber version?

Trainer and ambulance plane.

Oh perfect! I have an Po-2 local to me that was always a treat to see fly. Been a few years since they’ve flown it though. That 5-cyl engine has such a unique sound.

Glad to hear it. So many false starts with the Cold War era Soviet stuff it’s nice to hear that a company with a track record of completion maybe possibly will get to those in the coming years. In the meantime I’m especially looking forward to the Polikarpov.
Something like an Il-14 will be great as well as long as the accuracy and complexity is there.

PO-2!!! I have been waiting!!!

any updates on this project? is there a cockpit rendered yet?

It looks really good - very Golden Age of Aviation styling..

Yes we are working on first short video for WIP youtube channel.

thank you for taking the time to post your reply - the panel and cockpit look very good. I look forward to seeing more on the YT channel and when the project is complete.

Happy New Year!
We have started publishing videos about the progress of work on the UT-1 project on our YouTube channel.

il-14 would be big, i already enjoy your planes in dcs so really looking forward to seeing soviet planes in msfs from your hand :folded_hands:

PO-2 would be awesome. i-16 please!! I know you want only unarmed aircraft… but, just one, please! I promise I won’t pester you for an i-153 or il-2… or…. after that :wink:

I read Over Fields of Fire a few months ago, and she spent much of her career in the PO-2…

Congratulations, octopusG, on your DCS release today!

Your Yak Ut-1 is exceptional, wouldn’t you like to see a wonderful and fascinating Yak11T too? It’s an unarmed trainer aircraft too.
