How are you going to make the cockpit? Are you trying to make a design like the drawings of the condorgliders. I mean, not the same instrumentboard, the same drawings. The legs and the hand of the pilot...?

The pilot (and therefor his arms and legs) will be put in the plane by Uros and GG.

At the moment the work is progressing very slowly since i have a lot of other work.
However i was at least able to get some photos of our Ka8 of parts that i still need to model, so that work "could" progress now if i had time :)

Greetings

Apart from LOD1 (mid poly model). You can place in a basic 'square' pilot

I've never flown a wood ship. It will be nice to at least try a "virtual" woodie.

Haven't you heard the song by Ed Kilbourne that goes:

".... There's no stick upon the floor, no rudders anymore, just two wires that you plug into your brain
A computer reads your mind through a fiber-optic line and with this information flies the plane."

pilots don't need a body to fly :lol: .. it's a great song btw if you haven't heard it. I can give a link to the MP3 (legally available for free public D/L)

Yes many people have all the songs last year I found a German site that had them for public download.. It's all GR's fault :D, at the end of one of JH's video he had the song and GR commented it ownz so I went digging through my links as I knew I had the link around. Anyway this has gotten off topic... sorry people :P
