Sar71 110 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 ...it's animations plus the rather special systems are the most attractive aspects of this new Aerosoft product created by Stefan Hoffmann. This Hughes Racer definitely looks like the work of Alex Petrochenko... 8) :wink: Greetings Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kofi 0 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 ...leads you to this viewpoint? It's how the cockpit looks. Take a good look at the cockpits of the Aerosoft Beaver, Aerosoft Beech, and the Sib Wings Saab Safir Now take another look at the Hughe's cockpit.... Looks like Petrochenko's work to me... 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Hoffmann 4160 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 No. I simply dont sit on the computer the whole evening. We misunderstood. Thats all. You did that A-10? Are you interested in doing something with helicopters? (Im away now, til next morning) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kofi 0 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 You did that A-10? Never in any of these forums have I stated this. If I'm not mistaken, Tim is the primary designer of the A-10 And for now, there's nothing more I can add to this conversation unless it comes from Aerosoft...

YoYo 49 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Hi! I know, after FSX Acc SP2 many project was stopped. Devellopers think about how to setup models for SP2/Dx10. Its good b-se we, users, recived native version of models dedicated for FSX only (not just update of FS2004 version) but I Cant still wait for this BEAST :wink: Any news about this project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Hoffmann 4160 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 ...the project is in a very healthy status. But the H-1 Special is really a special thing . Almost everything of the cockpit has to be made in a custom version here for FSX, no stock parts in there. So its a lot of work but there is a silver streak at the horizon and how does those old chinese words say: Doing choices of wisdom and bringing up enough patience are guides for success and enlightment. Or for the hardcore westeners: He guys, keep calm, she will rock you! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick - Seria17hri11er 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 How are things coming along? Dont know if you guys got a chance to check out the website I posted with all the information about the H-1 Replica AKA "Serial Number 2". Here are some direct links from the page to some videos; High Speed Flyby- http://www.wrightools.com/hughes/video/HR1%20Fly_by2.wmv Engine Start- http://www.wrightools.com/hughes/video/pict0001.mov Takeoff- http://www.wrightools.com/hughes/video/pict0004.mov You might have found this site before I even posted, but in case you hadn't, or have not checked it out yet, there is a plethora of information and resources available from the site. I bet if there was something you were looking for regarding the H-1, but you couldn't find it, the webmaster would more than likely help you out. http://www.wrightools.com/hughes/ "I wanted to see New York ... so I tried to see how fast I could do it in." - Howard Hughes, Aviator, circa 1937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Hoffmann 4160 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Yeah, the site is well known to me. Its was one of the first information was found about the interior of the plane. Contact was tried with the site owner, but almost all outside traffic was damped after Wrights death. So all in all it was a tough researchers work, NASM at Washington DC helped a lot with the cockpit. Hughes himself was very afraid of getting stolen his ideas by competitors, so only Palmer, Odekirk and sometimes their direct assistants had knowledge. The project itself left the modeling and texturing stage completely now. Fresh Screenshots will come next days. Just tested the movable seat that lifts the pilots head just above the canopy rim.....aahh! This is the taste of 130 MPH flowing airstream! I tried this once in reallife on my motorbike at 140 MPH, surely with helmet, and it was so loud I couldnt here the engine and it needed muscles in the neck to move the head in the airstream. So remember and respect the H-1 pilots, and the rest of the Golden Age of Aviation, when you use the seat raiser handle LOL...!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB 11 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 The replica of the racer flies/flew at Reno - I spotted some images over there the other day. Sory - forgotten the link, but if you google Reno air race, you'll find... Maybe you can contact the organisers or the photographer (see the copyrights sections) Hope that helps a bit more.

johnpmiles 0 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Hello all - this is my first post here. I'm a regular on the horizon vfr-genx forums and have been drawn here by the great quality of the products Aerosoft have released so far. Anyway, back OT: wow, this looks like a fantastic aircraft. I'd certainly be interested in buying it when it's released. Just out of interest, I take it the model is based on the later refresh of the H1 when Hughes added the longer wings (painted blue). Will there be a shorter-winged version, too (these shorter wings were attached when the H1 first flew and were painted red)? Might be an excuse for another skin, at least. On another note, can I also offer my beta-testing services?! I have some beta testing experience. Thanks! EDIT: Just seen from the start of the thread that both versions will be included.

Stefan Hoffmann 4160 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Hi! You are welcome. The Aerosoft H-1 Special product features both versions, short and long winged, with their specific flight model. The following shots are completely from the short winged version.

johnpmiles 0 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Thanks for the reply. That looks great! As with the real thing, the short-winged version might not look as beautifully proportional as the long-winged one, but it certainly looks fast!
