JAS-39 Gripen
-
They are not independent in movement…
-
And on reverse than a horizontal stabilizer does… Meaning going up they rotate upwards not downwards…
True for take-off and landing configuration. For “gear up” and “non-low speed” situations the movement of canards a lot more resembles what LEFs do on F-16.

I was thinking to rig them with reversed dof of stabilizer… but you think would be more realistic if they where in LEF dof? In Nordic i think is the way im thinking… i will research a bit more…
-
Take a look at the Viggen. I haven’t worked on her in a long while, but it may give you some clues on how to handle the canards.

Added more details. Around 13k and something tris right now the whole model. I might re-do some things more “light” cause still i havent added Pilot/Wheels/Pylons and lights (and probably optimize some a bit) and this i know will add up in tri count. So what i added was the wingtip pylons, the gun pod, the Cockpit tub, the HUD, the exaust sytem (inner and outer) and the “seperator” in the canopy glass (i dont know how its called. As i said RL work is hard this period and its hard for me to dtay focused and have the mental strength to work as i want but whenever i do work i try to be good or ok… Enjoy…
PS. 3 days now and i allready have more than 10 overhours in work… and this is exasuting me…Again ill thank Repvez for giving me his Grippen… It helped me a lot

Maybe you mean too long? I fixed it allready. Comparing it with photos and profiles around the web…
EDIT… mind that in the model is in fully open positition

I never thought that a day would come to use Instagram as a source for Falcon…
Ohh the decay…
But a man has to do what needs to be done… :lol:

You would not believe the gold I’ve traced lately hosted to this service…

I do. I follow the Portugal airforce and they have stanning pictures.
The thing is I don’t know how to download them. I only use Instagram on my phone. [emoji38]Στάλθηκε από το MI 5 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

Nice one… And i did spot a mistake i have… though ill try to compare it with other photos as well… Maybe its country depended, im speaking for the small fins on the vertical fin… On my end this is some work i done today (nothing much and completely basic) just some basic stuff for the 3d models office… The hud holds to many tris/polys… i have to reduce it A LOT!

https://image.ibb.co/iQ6Txw/Grip_Cockpit.jpgNot really a mistake. In general, JAS-39A/Bs do not have these fins at all. Most of JAS-39C/Ds left the factory with fins on the top rear part of the vertical stabilizer - just the way you have it and same as can be seen in the picture below. It is only C/D airframes from the late production runs which were fitted with the fins on the front lower part (in the picture from Raptor) from the very beginning - this is mainly the case for Thai, South African and some of Swedish C/Ds. A majority of Swedish and all Czech and Hungarian C/Ds entered service with the fins on the rear part of the vertical stab, but the fins were later moved to the front position as a result of modernisation and upgrades to individual airframes.

Thanks for the info! That is what i thought also cause i ve seen many photos like Raptor shared and other like yours! But to get a “modern” and latest version i have to move them witch isn’t difficult at all! There’s other things more difficult to make in this model than that!
