Yes, I am lookin' forward to this OV-10 after watching this teaser! I was a young USAF F-4E Phantom II crew chief during the late Vietnam War. In April 1972, elements of our SJAFB 4th Tactical Fighter Wing were sent under emergency war orders (Linebacker I aerial campaign) to Ubon RTAFB temporary duty (TDY). Ubon RTAFB hosted the 8th Tactical Fighter Wing's F-4C and F-4D squadrons, made famous by Col. Robin Olds. There was also the famous AC-130 Spectre gunship squadron. Another small squadron had USAF OV-10 FAC birds. IIRC they were painted kind of a yellowish cream color, and typically loaded for bear. I really wanted to fly in one but never got the chance. Oh well, soon I'll be able to do it virtually.😁

Thanks Chris, I was fortunate to have experienced a pax flight in a Harrier T4 in Germany in the late 70s. It was an FAC sortie provided by an OV10 against a convoy with a simulated attack. We were bounced on the run in to the target by a pair of German F4s< the FAC was able to keep providing a talk onto the target throughout, quite incredible. We saw the German and US OV10s at RAFG Gutersloh all the time. Incredible when they were in a close pattern< so maneuverable. I might just have to get this one, I am tempted by the Tornado you teased us with as well. It is getting expensive. Happy Easter enjoy the Bank Holiday.

I noticed one small detail. When starting these Garrett TPE-331 engines, there is no delay between hitting the starter button and seeing the prop start to move. It is all geared together. In the animation you hear the compressor whine before prop rotation begins. If you walk up to the actual airplane and hand turn the prop, you will see the compressor wheel turn as well. Otherwise, well done.

Fantastic rendition of this fabulous aircraft! Everything manual, the essence of flying. The start sequence is very much like the Fairchild Metro and Cessna Conquest, which were also Garrett powered. Generally, the prop locks didn’t come off until both engines were running and you were ready to taxi. They’re a feature on this single spool design to lock the prop pitch into the fine position and prevent the possibility of a catastrophic engine overload should the power levers inadvertently be moved towards feather (an unlikely event once the levers were forward of the ground idle gate at the commencement of taxi).

Nope, no weapons allows on marketplace

Great video, she's a very accomplished piece of payware and feels almost like a DCS module, except finished! How do you get the tablet to appear on the seat? Mine appears on the left or right hand side but is not clickable on the right hand side as the buttons behind 'get in the way' of the cursor

Another great video, thanks so much. A question: I understand autorotation in rotary aircraft but what does it mean for fixed wing? (You mention it at 21:14 when talking about the stall/spin.)
@cgaviator4 ай бұрын
Autorotate in a fixed wing is when the aircraft rolls when you haven’t put roll input in. Unless I’ve remembered that wrong! 😅

Haven't been playing MSFS much lately due to ridiculous loading times, but this AC will bring me back in for sure! However, I will delete most of my addons in the Community Folder as the loooooong load times are 56k obnoxious. Sure hope MSFS2024 fixes the addon load time issue bigtime!

I've never heard of this aircraft before. Is it like a propeller version of the A-10? It sure reminds me of that aircraft though lol.

I bought this but I’m having trouble with the throttles. I’m on the V1 flight stick and I can’t get the throttles to go all the way forward. I tried the EFB but it’s tricky and reversed. Any help would be appreciated.
@cgaviator4 ай бұрын
Sadly there are quite a few variables. Have you calibrated your throttle? Checked sensitivity? Double checked throttle setup vs their manual? Does it work properly on other models?

The is like the Vietnam bird dog planes but newer. Is that the role its for? Those guys in Vietnam had some massive stones to fly in the role they played back then.
@cgaviator4 ай бұрын
I believe so, airborne FAC type thing. Very large stones indeed!
@jakeb70874 ай бұрын
Yes, the OV-10 was a FAC/CAS aircraft. The O-2 replaced the O-1 Birddog and the Bronco replaced the Skymaster.

I buy anything Azurpoly creates and the cockpit looks wonderful. However I'm not to sure about those very ... 'clear and present' ... panel-lines on the external. They do not look very realistic to me at all. It's as if they all have a black line drawn around them! Is that shadow? Are they too thick? Is it your graphics settings? Contrast maybe?
@cgaviator4 ай бұрын
I have contrast slightly increased, but it’s a fair point, panels lines are sometimes too obvious on models
