Rypley's Hangar
-
it’s coming along… -
Sounds… interesting…

Nice and interesting that, Rypley. I agree.
Is it for real? And you are that guy developing it?
I’m asking this only because a very good friend of mine (and a member of this Community also) is currently on the way to finish his own project, and this last is looking stunning just the way the one you posted here.Well, all the best to you!
With best regards.

yep, i’m the guy developing it, the one and only!
-
Panels done, next will be be the MCP and the RWR, maybe the MISC panel too but i don’t think so. -

‘The two’, I guess mate :lol:
Keep on this way, it seems, and is, good since now.
I’m almost envying you guys, because you have that room at your places I never will at mine instead.
Such is life. Bah.With best wishes and regards.

Next it’ll be the misc panel, maybe somethin’ more. -
Looks nice. Is there any information available on how this SMS panel actually works? I couldn’t find anything specific about it. There are some F-16A manuals available, but they cover everything except weapons and radar (and to top it off, the rest didn’t really change that much from C/D models…).
-
Yep SCP (Stores Control Panel) info is really hard to come by. Function of some buttons seems to be quite obvious (AA AG weapons selection) but hard info would be great.
Few things about radar (modes / symbology) can be found in old Raythenon brochure https://www.scribd.com/document/86601500/APG-66 -

someone pm about sending me one of those elusive manuals, but it wouldn’t useful at all, since idk if new avionics could be coded anytime soon.
PD:Misc panel is next, but anyone got any good glare shield photos? i’m having a hard time trying to model it.
-
Grab anything you can, as long as it won’t put you or the other party at legal risk. Withoud docs nothing gonna happen for sure, with docs at least there’s a chance.

I have a set of real old block glareshields lying around.
Tell me, what you need. -

New avionics are possible to code if there’s a coder who’s both willing and able to do it. Not a trivial thing to ask for, but not impossible, either. However, nobody can code something that there’s no information on (which is why the ECM panel is still nonfunctional). Block A is different, but it’s not that different, and it’d certainly be easier to implement that than, say, attempting to give the F/A-18 a fully modeled avionics suite.
-
… personally, if I find an available avionic coder in the team, I would ask him if he could be kind enough to fix the flaws we have on our current blocks and try to implement what we are still lacking (several things actually).
-
Ofcourse current Viper blocks are priority, but there’s nothing wrong with collecting the docs, they might be handy someday. You can never know what future brings/

Tell me, what you need.Do you have the F-16A block 15 glareshield?
-
Do you have the F-16A block 15 glareshield?
I’m 95% sure, that its a B15. But I have no history of it, so I can not confirm.

the MISC Panel is almost ready, but you wont see any updates until Wednesday since i’ll be taking a day trip tomorrow, so we’ll see this Wednesday! -

nice! thanks for the images! but, if possible could you do a right and top view photo? i’d like to use it as reference image to ease a bit the modelling.
