MSFS Freeware Aircraft - Boeing C-17 Globemaster - First Look!
Рет қаралды 42,102
Күн бұрынWe're taking another look at some freeware from across the Microsoft Flight Simulator community today - and one which is always great to see fly in real life too! The Boeing C-17 Globemaster.
It's being created by Delta Simulations and this release I'm checking out in this video is their latest version of the aircraft addon to make it on to flightsim.to
We'll depart Coningsby in this work-in-progress freeware aircraft for a quick flight around East England completing it with a landing.

The external model is superb, but I think I'll wait until more of the systems are available before taking this puppy for a spin. Great work this far though, so I hope Delta Simulations persevere with it.

Absolutely - good potential but like you say, they need to stick with it and develop it further

Default key bind for barometric pressure(QNH) is the 'B' key. I know this isn't a knob in the cockpit, but gives you a way to set it to the current altimeter setting automaically.

I think it's great that people are taking the reigns and making popular military aircraft for MSFS 2020. I haven't been on one of these planes in over 20 years, and to see a version that has a cockpit that isn't the 747 cockpit is great. For whatever reason after I downloaded it I'm having engine issues and it constantly wants to steer right. I can't get the engines to work with my X-56 throttle the number 4 engine is always reversed.
@BritishAvgeek 2 жыл бұрын
I'd have to take another look - not sure if the recent sim update caused any problems (though it shouldn't have). Could be a control setting issue perhaps?
@derpyourhooves6168 2 жыл бұрын
@@BritishAvgeek It happened before sim update 8. I also spent about 45 minutes editing the throttle bindings to my HOTAS and checking for conflicts. Because the x-56 has a split throttle you can assign 2 engines say port and the other 2 starboard. So I have no idea what caused it. I just deleted it from my community folder after that.
