Thanks Patrick for the kind works. Happy to make sure I get you as close as I can for your customers! I do have a request, does anyone in this forum have any good references for the rudder pedal? I can try my best to make one, but can't find not one good reference. Also if anyone is so kind that may have some of the placards for the aircraft. I can't seem to make out the trim handle decal, and the placards by the canopy handle. Any help from the group would be very appreciated.

Sorry for the delay on this, just trying to make the interior proper, then will have 2 models (1 representing the AF model with the little strakes on the bottom rear fuse and the standard A model). From there Chris and Team will take the magic of the flight dynamics to make it aerobatic or not:)

Don't mind the vertical handle for the canopy open handle, it's how I modeled it, it will lay mostly flat front or back for canopy opening.

I'm still projecting the model to be done by next weekend (assuming I can get any reference images for decals and placards) we are closing in now.

Still have to create the low res and make a textured decal cockpit (once everything else is completed that is less then a day of work).

Thanks,
Jason

Also have the modeling finished for the spoiler (still have to make the texture details for it). In the render you see it straight up, but it will articulate outward I believe (any guidance on that would be great). Will also try and make some of the details in texture versus modeling inside the bay when spoilers are deployed.

Why two versions ?
You can make aerobatics and fly Cross county with
The Pilatus.

I don't know if you also want to do the water drain holes (I wouldn't)

The glider I flew had different rudder control then is in the manual (I would stick with the manual):

The air brakes go out to the fuselage. They are rounded on the fuselage side.

So I know it's been a while, but don't fear Condor fans, I'm closing in on getting XO the B4. Just a few more packaging items and the aircraft will be ready for the Condor Team.

We need images of B4 cockpit delcals/placards before this can be brought to condor.

Can anybody assist with those?

Hey Chris, maybe you can ask there http://www.ewms.ch/index.htm. This company took over the after sales service and all spare parts for the B4 from Pilatus in 1994. But I don't know if this is still up to date.
