E-Flight Ultimate FX 3D for RealFlight G3
This model is based off the Ultimate that comes with the software. I've modified it to as closely represent the E-Flite Ultimate flying on the E-Flite Park 400 920kv Brushless Outrunner with a ThunderPower 1320mAh 11.1v Prolite. The airfoils were even removed from the wings and just like the real one it balances right on the money without having to move anything around. It's fun to fly. About the only thing that might not be realistic would be the rudder authority. I'm not sure why but it's not that effective.
I've also taken a stab at a colorscheme for it. Don't be to harsh on that as this is the first time I've ever tried to do this. It's not perfect but it's close. The bottom of the wings are wrong. I hope to fix that soon.

It requires the latest version of G3 so you can import.

I did one awhile ago. I made the flying model totally flat like the Eflight Ultimate 3D profile. The size is the same as my real 3D ultimate and so is everything else. The handling is close to what mine flys like but still needs a bit more tweeking. Sure would be nce to beable to make the visual model match the flying model as far as fuse design and flat wings. I just use the hanger 9 colors since they closely match the rear Eflight Ultimate 3D profile.

yeah... if you look at mine you'll see that I did the same. The physics model on mine is as accurate a representation of the real model as I could make it down to the weights of each individual component. On the FX 3D obviously the fuse is full so that part is still full fuse in mine. I also recreated the e-flite motor and a thunderpower lipo for it along with the correct sizes for the control surfaces.
Did you share yours? Cause I've not seen it.

No I have not shared mine yet. Been kind of worried about someone from Eflite raising cain for making my flying model exactally as theirs be measuring the real model etc. I am in the process of loading everything into my laptop right now.
I have a Toshiba Satelite with a 1.60 gig celeron and 750 meg of ram with an ati express 200m graphics card in it. I found I get the same performance on the photo fields with the lap top as I do my old desk top. The other fields seem to be very choppy until I fly around in them for awhile and they seem to smooth out.
Sure whish I knew of a way to pull all my edits out of my desktop and put them into my laptop. Only thing I can think of is to email them to myself but that will take awhile to get them all. Trying to get the laptop setup so I can play around in the evenings when I am out in the truck and have to stop due to Hours Of Service regulations. For some reason they will only let us truck drivers drive for 11 hours with not more then 14 hours of total on duty time.
