Air Tractor Fire Boss

[Boof69]

It was suggested to make the retract time duration match the full size aircraft. The duration is roughly 40 seconds. I increased the retract duration to around 13 seconds. It seems painfully long to me. Any opinions on making the wheel retract take 13 seconds on this model? My thoughts are that people flying this in a scale style probably won't mind, but others may hate it at 13 seconds.

Make it whatever length of time you feel is right. It's your model. It can always be changed by the end user.

 

[Boof69]

Now that's not really an opinion is it Jeff. It's more stating the obvious. How would you feel about a plane that has a 13 second retract?

 

[jeffpn]

That's better than 40, but that may be another obvious statement.

 

[Boof69]

26 seconds is the maximum amount of time it could be increased to.

7 or 8 will be more than slow enough

 

[abaser]

7 or 8 will be more than slow enough

Agreed.

 

[Boof69]

7 or 8 will be more than slow enough

That's what I was thinking or something close to that.

 

[Boof69]

Getting closer....

 

[flexible]

That is vert cool how you put the heat colors on the exhaust.

Did the Maj. photoshop that for you?

 

[Boof69]

Nope. I did it.

 

[jeffpn]

Looks pretty good. I thought the Maj. must've done it!

 

[Boof69]

I'll take that as a compliment.

 

[Boof69]

Laboring to take off.
