Hornet Pit - Released
-
Pit is looking better all the time given the restraints you have to operate within.
My only major concern (not your fault Sting) is that it is still using the BMS F16 avionics and switches.
Do all the aircraft in BMS use the Falcon avionics?

More or less. The Hornet has a pseudo-MPCD (the display between your knees) but AFAIK it’s still based on the F-16’s navigation avionics. Not sure about the other flyable stuff like the F-15’s, Tornado’s, etc but I believe they are as well.
-
Actually, it’s not based on anything nearly “Hornet-like”…maybe the ACLS Link. Maybe…
The only thing that’s even close to close is the radar display. No telling if it’s actually modeled any different.

Are we even talking about the same Hornet? There is no ACLS in BMS, much less the ability to couple the AP to it. And the radar display isn’t even close to close to close TBH. It’s the F-16 FCR display stuffed into a different cockpit LOD. The Hornet RDR/ATTK and AZ/EL DDI pages have a totally different layout, different symbology, different mnemonics, different sub-modes and capabilities, etc.

Guys its all Viper avionics (HUD does have some hornet specific layout). The 3rd MFD is just the HSI. BMS is a Viper Sim.
Having said that, hornet avionics in F4 has been achieved over 10 years ago ( see for 0.55secs).

Sting, thanks for sharing this video, very interesting stuff! I hope one day BMS become more modular and we will see other ACs more developed not only by coredevs, but also by 3rd parties.
Having said that I really appreciate your work on Hornet and other ACs. I still fly Hornet and Hog exclusively since 4.33 was released.
I asked about remodelling cockpit model because throttle looks like totally new thing! Magic!
Would you release that as separate mod or patch to the current Hornet pit or would be incorporated into 4.33.2?
-
i will just share the files when they are ready.
-
Cool!:-)
Would it also fix compass bug? (in 4.33.1 compass on the right is not visible when console lights are off, while on your screens is working).
-
that fix will be in u2

Think I have hit my maximum skill level on this one. Anything i do at the moment seems to make it look worse… hehe
All and all I am vary happy with my first PS experiment. Huge thanks to Bonedust for sharing is PSD files.

Amazing Work Mr. Sting. Forever Added to my Falcon install. Absolutely wonderful cockpit.
As a Comparison… F/A-18C

As an added Bonus, All the Fault lights lit. Anyone know what “Go” and “No Go” Stand for? Not too familiar with the Hornet.
-
Go means don’t not go.
No Go means don’t go.

Cheers, Sting, my brother.
