Q&A VEAO Grumman F8F Bearcat

Welcome to the Questions and Answers thread for the VEAO Grumman F8F Bearcat.

 

In this thread feel free to ask any questions you have regarding this module and myself and the rest of the VEAO team will do our best to answer them as best we can. 

 

To cover a few commonly asked questions from the warbirds thread : 

 

• No ETA yet

• The Bearcat will be complete to EFM to PFM standards

• Full ASM

• We will be doing the F8F-2

 

 

If you guys have any questions for us then this is the place for you!

 

I can’t promise that we will answer all of them (usual NDA stuff applies etc etc) but we will certainly try!

 

Keep an eye out for the Eye Candy thread and the Dev Diary not only for this aircraft but for the other warbirds as well!

 

All the best

VEAO F-8F Update

Right, 

 

Time for some new eye candy I think...

 

As you can see the Bearcat is coming along nicely and great work is being done to have this model ready by the end of the year so that we can look to bring it to you in the early part of 2015  

 

I will update Dev Diary in due course

Thought I'd give you abit of an update on the dev of the Bearcat...

 

Flight modelling is in its infancy and is being programmed by the same AFM programmer as the P-40F so I would expect this to be completed slightly after the P-40F

 

The external model is going really well and should be completed in the next couple of weeks, work on the cockpit has already begun and is progressing well, I will post some more screenies during the week for this  

 

We have managed to get the last of the references we needed for some of the more obscure areas of the aircraft so that has finally come to an end for now at least!

 

Thanks to Nick and Stephen Grey we managed to pickup a couple of small errors in the shape of the main body of our model, these have now been corrected and signed off. 

 

Will bring you guys more news as it develops

Indeed its not dead in the slightest

 

Couple of renders were posted in one of the other threads but I will post a couple here 

 

Its progressing along nicely, albeit a little behind schedule but is in no danger of being sidelined or cancelled
