Hi,

the creation of your own models for aerofly pro consists of 3 steps.


1. 3D modelling:

Find the appropriate freeware program metasequoia here:
http://ex.sakura.ne.jp/~mizno/metaseq/mqle21a.zip

An english Workshop for metasequoia is available here:
http://kimagure-hikoki.hp.infoseek.co.jp/index_e.html


2. The 3D data have to be converted into IPACS flightsim format:

Get the free converter by an email to [email protected], include your name and address.

An english workshop for use of the converter is here:
http://www.rodeo.rc-sim.de/Ipacs_converter_e.htm


3. Working out the flight model:
You have to modify both the TMG and TMD files manually.

I suggest to use Microsoft Wordpad, which is included on all windows pcs.

Find an english workshops for easyfly and aerofly pro here:
http://www.rodeo.rc-sim.de/workshops.htm


I suggest to start with an simple trainer model or a glider and do not recommend a complicated scale model with lots of extra functions.


More information (in english) can be found on

www.rodeo.onlinehome.de
www.rc-sim.de

Good success and looking forward to many new models

Ya I got stuck there too, I just keep trying and got it after a while. I am a computer programmer and that software really sucks if you ask me. Way to complicated to make a plane, just my 2 cents. It's free so what ya going ta do........
