The June competition was (once again) kindly sponsored by Alabeo.


Well ... I've been after this one for a fair while now. My word, it was worth the wait!!! It's an absolute gem of an add-on. Great external modelling and the VC looks "just right"! Handles sensibly (not that I would know) and the spray effect is beautifully done. Though not the newest in their product line (which means it's cheaper, folks!!) - it's right up there with all of them in terms of quality.

This is Ricardo's ZK-DPA livery - doing a bit of N.Island painted apple moth eradication!

Incredibly, this is a real livery (by Rafal Stankiewicz) ... somewhere in N. California:

Thanks again to the kind folks at Alabeo for putting up such an amazing prize - I really do love it! Thanks also to everyone here that voted for my entry and allowed me to add it to my virtual hangar!!

P.S. I can activate spray OK - but does anyone know how to use the hopper spreader?

Adam.

That's always been one of my favourites, kind of like an Airtruk, only better...
Adam, your sim always looks great, but wow, these are stunning. The nose-on shot is the best of the best! I know how you achieve most of this (FTX+PTA) but a quick reminder of your hardware specs would be interesting.

Hmmm ... Alabeo Airtruk ... sounds like a winner!! :lol:

Rob - I get asked this a lot, so ended up creating an archive with info + screenshots: http://www.nzfsim.org/index.php?dsp=dlo ... e_2018.zip

I've not updated it fro P3Dv4.3, but nothing has changed. My system's a bit of a slide-show, but it's stable as a rock - and I love slide-shows anyway!
