In Switzerland, the Vampire DH-100 was the first military aircraft to be equipped with a blind flight system (IFR). It consisted of a “NAFU” (automatic omnidirectional speaking beacon) and a GCA (approach radar). The latter required the presence of a ground operator to advise the pilot of the course to be followed and its altitude. These systems are part of our Vampire and are being tested. As two versions of the Vampire flew in Switzerland Read more
A multiplayer connection does not pose too many problems in a local area network (LAN), but our simulators are more difficult to connect through a remote network (WAN). For all those who have encountered connection problems with P3Dv4, FSX or FSX:SE, on a WAN type network, Hamachi is THE solution! This small free program (up to five connections) allows you to simply create a VPN (Virtual Private Network) which makes the connection easier. The proof: Read more
We test our Vampire in all weather situations, even in storms…! And its performance must match that of the original aircraft manual. An exciting, but complicated job for both developer and test pilots!
What has worried us the most in recent weeks is the flight performance generated by the famous Goblin 35 engine: a big job, very technical, which requires great precision and excellent knowledge of the thrust calculations used by FSX and Prepar3D. Our simulators perfectly reproduce the results of these complex thrust calculations at different altitudes and reactor speeds.
A wonderful video was prepared for us by Béni, one of our test pilots (former military pilot)! The video was made on FSX using FSRecorder for the second aircraft (both flights were made by the same pilot). We notice that he knows Axalp’s turns very well and the lead during the flight is also great. With his smooth flight on the first recorded flight, he was able to “dance” with his plane, creating a magnificent Read more
As stated in the project’s description, the Vampire will be armed. The rockets are being deployed and will be launched using VRS TacPack.
