G'day folks!
Today we have released update 1.2.1 for the Spitfire, which includes numerous systems improvements, greatly enhanced start-up audio and a fix for the dreaded cockpit light leaking!
Systems:
- Reverted fuel pump to OFF during cold start
- Set default pilot to WWII
- Improved fuel valve logic. The fuel valve can now be toggled with the Toggle Engine 1 Fuel Valve keybind.
- GNS430 can now be powered on/off with the COM1 volume button
- Improved the rudder trim wheel interaction speed
- Fixed radiator flap not responding to manual override
- Fixed clock animation
- Halved the speed of icing
- Improved the baro knob
- Wobble pump logic improved
- Added aileron trim control to tablets settings. Be sure to TURN OFF 'Auto Rudder' in the assistance settings as this is causing major right roll.
- Base oil temperature slightly decreased
- Optimized primer animation and interaction code
- Canopy slide auto-shuts under a steeper angle now, making it easier to open on approach.
- Transponder digit rolls corrected
- Fixed checklists by removing incorrect idle/cutoff reference
- Fixed CTD when saving custom camera views
Flight Model:
- Slightly tweaked performance to compensate for SU9 changes (slightly lowered thrust at take-off)
- Reduced wheel brake power
Sound:
- Engine starter whine sound re-added
- New engine booster sound added
- Added startup pops and backfires
- Added prop sound when engine is turned off
- Engine shutdown timing with sound improved
- Improved groundroll and propwash transitions
- General rebalancing
Art:
- Greatly improved the cockpit shadows and eliminated almost all light leaking
- Modified clock arms to more accurately reflect the real gauge
Thanks all,
Alex, Dan & Rai
Love this bird, is there a key bind for the wobble pump?
how do I obtain my latest update version 1.2.1 for my spitfire
Flying irons planes top them all. Extremely well done and amazing to fly.
I am very impressed by the Flying Irons Spitfire Mk.IX. It has improved with every update and is a thing of beauty. Great to fly in MSFS with a Buttkicker set up to add the haptic feedback. Sounds are fantastic and it looks gorgeous.
Any updates on progress for the up and coming Hellcat or German fighters? Been checking Facebook avidly waiting for a sign.
