About this model

Some custom animation have set in this model.

1.Drug chute has assigned to thrust reverser switch.
Drug chute animation we had ever,when flare on landing,drag chute had barged into the ground.
But this time,we confirmed this problem and you can see this animation more naturally than ever!!

2.Auto flaps have controlled on aircraft pitch and speed vectors.

3.You can control weapon's variations on MFD by Mr.Daisuke's great work.

4.You can't open canopy by pressing Shift+E.if you want to open canopy,you need to operate some switch in VC.
For more information,please watch manual.

About Sound

The engine sound which becomes Maine is sampling and is using the actual tone of F-2 by kindness of Katsumata Shingo.
It's set so that it'll be a big roar, so it may be better to turn down the volume for a short while more than usual.

Mr.Katumata Shingo,thank you very much for your helping!!

And the other sound effect is using dad_xml_sound3.gau  by Mr.Douglass Dawson.

About FDE

Actual cord origin was input faithfully,and the feeling performance by seeing in FS and air shows had reproduced at high territory....
I think it was done. ... probably...
I adjust it at the time of beta 1 distribution and had a good press. Please be relieved.

By the way,the flaps are completly full auto.So players needn't operate it.

1.Take off mode

It's has operated by doing gear down.

2.Landing mode

Gear down as well and plus airbrakes by pressing lush or proper key.

3.Auto mode by AOA
When flying on low speed or high mobility, XML guage(animation)and aircraft.cfg(use) will help it to doing it easily.

All mode don't end just a animation,and the effect of the flap can be expected actually.
