Could you add the option to trim the aileron?

[TT]

In the future i will try to make opening canopies, working fire extinguisher instrument etc.

Thanks !

I think for the opening of the canopy and fire extinguishers you may need to modify the Java code and / or FMD/EMD for all IAR have these options:

  CCockpitDoor 0
  Extinguishers 0

Yes i know, i'm currently starting to learn these things. Fokker DXXI has fire extinguisher gauge so maybe it's a starting point?

If i learn how to do so...  . I don't know if this plane in reality had aileron trim, but the lack of it also bothers me... and not just with IAR-80.

And regarding to the fire extinguisher gauge, how it exactly worked? I suppose that the red dial behind the plate rotated when fire extinguisher was fired, but how exactly?

Tell me all your questions about the IAR planes and I will try to search on local forums and museums here, there are some IAR-80/81 vets here mabye I'll succed getting in touch with one. Also I can find you many pictures except pictures with cockpit, those are rare.

i see what I find about the extinguisher gauge.

Hello, TT,

Great work you did here! Congrats and thanks!
I have some blueprints of the IAR-80/81 series, published in the ”Modelism” series in the late 80s. They also present a large part of the cockpit instruments and markings. If they are of any interest, I can e-mail them to you.
Regarding the prop pitch angle indicator: the in-game inscription says ”Elice / Indicator cu pas”. In Romanian, it should read ”Elice / Indicator de pas”. However, in the blueprints I have, the prop pitch indicator had only the ”Luftschraube” inscription on it. Do you think something can be done about it?

Best regards,

Actually it was indicator de pas but then i read some AAS thread where someone said it's indicator cu pas, so i changed it... 

I'm absolutely interested about the blueprints, previously i just had two grainy black-and-white photos and pictures of replicas.
Could you just upload them somewhere and then send the link via pm?

Here's some "development": fire extinguisher gauge working  . Next i have to study the flight model to enable opening canopy and aileron trim.

Good, let's see who finishes first

I'm working on a HD skin for the IAR

Also this could help you alot with the cockpit, there are some cockpit photos in the review I don't think you have to buy it: http://www.radubstore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=118&products_id=373

Hello, TT

The inscription on the fire extinguisher gauge should read ”SISTEM BREVET/EXTINCTOR AUTOMAT/IAR BARBIERI”
The system designer was Eng. Dumitru Barbieri.

I have now implemented opening canopy and aileron trim, just need to copy/paste code and meshes for IAR-81. So i would like to ask question about cockpit color.  Was it grey instead of stock game green?

[Bizu]

I found some photos and drawings and these are the colours used for the cockpit walls: 8a949b, a2aeb2.

The book "I.A.R.80 & I.A.R.81 - Airframe, Systems & Equipment" says this was the colour of the instrument panel: 1f262e (https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/--Mp8FsW3L4Y/TrEn_e5P4JI/AAAAAAAABBw/UnyjAGx5fqE/s799/IAR-061.jpg)

But the best material would be this:



The control panel is original from an IAR from what I've heard on some forums, the colors of the cockpit are ambiguous but this is the best reference used by model makers.
