I found planes online for fms, but how do i add them to fly them? thanks

Unzip the zip file (mine is right click on the zip, click extract) I keep my planes in folder of their own in "my documents", but you can add them to the FMS models files, it is in program files on my computer. When in the game, load model, double click folder w/ planes, double click plane you want you should see a file that ends in .par (FMSplane.par)double click the par file (mine doesn't work if I push open I have double click for some reason) hope this helps BTW I have 250 planes at least , I lost count when I tried to count them last When playing go to simulate and push options, click the box that says auto-initialization after crash and the planes will bounce in stead of just stopping, It is great! FMS is the best(I mean for money dollar for dollar) Do you have a interface so you can use your tx?

No i dont, im having to use my keyboard on my laptop right now. kind of sucks, but im getting the feel for it

I bought a futaba/hitech trainer cord and cut the end and soldered on a plug to go to my micophone jack. IT works if I remove my crystyl from the tx. And only cost $12. Cheaper yet if you track down the male plug for tx and use a recycled wire(shielded is better ,imo) Plans and interface are free on the FMS site, look in the links section to find all you need! You can move the keys around to act more like a tx, this will still help if you set up the keyboard, I found out you can change the keys to late and it messed with me when I got the cable for my tx. If you are not a do it yourselfer let me know. Below is my faverite plane. It is a PQHOR spad.

nice! When i click on saved planes to use them, the sound works, but there is no plane there at all, i cant figure it out. any clue?

What plane is it? I have a few that don't work. That is what mine do if I push open instead of double clicking, I would try both ways ,but you may have a bad file.

a t-hawk, and a aerobird x-treme wont work

My t-hawk works I am downloading the aerobird now. Gary makes cool model's. Aerobirdx works fine, it is a little easier to fly, no ron's though. There are people that are 100 times better at this I am. Try the FMS forums. BTW new faverate plane. a SPA3D.

Forgot the pic of the SPA3D.

Ive been looking for that SPA3DT.Is there a link to the download.Does it fly 3D well.

Warren, I e-mailed you the zip for the SPA3DT. For some reason the spa3dt is hard to find , I dug it up at spad world in a old tread.

The rpoblem with some models is:
You may have beta 7 or what ever and have a model that has a alpha 8 par file. If that is the case then you cant use that model on beta 7 because alpha 8 par files don't work with beta 7 fms...
Or you may have a corrupt file.

Didnt get the email of the SPA3DT yet.When did you send it.

Warren. I sent the zip again with a 100% pitts bipe, let me know if you get it.

Thanks got those planes.Did you fly the CAP 222 yet.

Hey clink, Do you have an lt40 in that 250 planes can't find one anywhere THX
