Default Jr. Falcon for FMS

Hi all. I know this prolly belongs in the Sim forum, but thought I'd post it here since it's a virtual 1/2A. It's a 3-D model I just finished for use in the free FMS flight simulator based on the Jr. Falcon that my dad and I built a while back. I can email a zip folder of the files to anyone that wants it. But you have to "cheat" by not using throttle while flying it.

Very nice! Unfortunately, my FMS interface hasn't worked since switching to XP.

Nice work! What sort of program are you using to generate that model? My email is [email protected]. Thanks

Rog, the newest version of FMS (2.0 Alpha 8.5) works flawlessly in Windows XP. It is definitely worth trying again: http://n.ethz.ch/student/mmoeller/fms/index_e.html
And GWS makes a $10 cable: http://211.22.81.195/english/product...ircuit/fsm.htm
I didn't make it to the swap meet. My mother was hospitalized earlier that week and is still in rehab getting physical therapy, so I'm taking care of my dad and their household for a while.


Derek, I'm using the free version of Metasequoia. Here's a page with a tutorial and a link to the free software: http://rcp.web.infoseek.co.jp/Rc_hp2...asequoia_e.htm
