Hi,

I have had success creating panoramic airfields for Realflight 9. I would like to create simulator models for my RMRC Recruit and Strix Nano Goblin. If there is a guide to get me going that would be great.

If you go to RF8 "Designers Corner", there`s a thread there titled "Resource Library", click on that,...check out post #`...7 & 11, there are tutorials in those posts that will show you all you need to know to get started and/or complete a model for RF. The modeling program being used is "Max 3D", which you can download free as/in a "student version". You will also need a paint program, which you`ll need to apply a color scheme to your completed model, "GIMP" is a free program for that.. ;) :)

Were you ever able to design and use one? I’d love to try them out
 
Are there any custom add on planes out there to find? I haven’t been able to find any. I’ve been looking to see if there was a reptile s800 sly shadow or any of the recruit nano goblins, z84 designs
 
I don't have Autodesk 3D Max and the free educational download is not available anymore. I have Blender but there are no directions available on how to export to realflight. Bummer. Here I am flying the real r/c airplanes that I want get models in for Realflight. The RMRC Mini Recruit fly well in high winds. BTW I simulate 23mph variable winds when I use realflight because that's what the wind conditions are at my clubs field.
It's raining now.. so I am using the simulator

Here's the video of me flying my RMRC Mini Recruit in 17-20mph winds. Check out the windsock and how stable the Recruit is:

This is to add to new tutorials being made but on the Blender side of things. Blender is a free program and can handle every aspect of the modeling process (even painting if desired). Please feel free to reference THIS THREAD for links and other such information that will be used throughout the...
