Autopilot and Flight Model Reworks for Boeing 747-8i v0.7
This Boeing 747-8i mod contains
– Autopilot control function model rework
– Flight Characteristic adjustment
– Fuel Consumption adjustment
– Ground Handling (about taxing) fix
– Landing/Taxing Light fix and (Slightly) improvement
– Start condition changes (about autopilot setting for mid-air depature)
*fuel consumption is less than real-life plane because engine thrust changed after 1.10.7.0 update. (I already have a new parameters but still hesitated by some reasons.)
The autopilot control function model was reworked to fix some annoying issues (e.g. zig-zag swaying and poor tracking performance and autopilot induced osciliation behavior) of Asobo’s default model and improve its performance (flight route rendezvous/tracking, attitude change and recovery). Also, flight characteristics and stability was adjusted to improvement its handling, and fix inconsistency between modern and legacy flight model setting.
Update/Changes in V0.70 hotfix 3 (Nov 15, 2020)
a. ILS auto approach and auto landing performance improved.
b. Fligh route tracking performance improved.
c. Flight route rendezvous performance improved.
d. Some flight characteristics adjusted.
Important 1 : Use with MODERN FLIGHT MODEL for AUTOPILOT reworks. My autopilot rework is suitalbe for moden flight model setting.But, also I tweaked flight characteristics for manual flight. (for both modern / legacy flight models)
Important 2 : Do not use with another 747 mods same time, it could be cause unstable or strange behavior.My mod NOT support another 747 mod compatibility in present version. (because my mod is under develop progress now)
Important 3 : You can’t use 747 related landing challenge with this rework mod because landing challenge compares scores between players. Also, my reworks provide different flight characteristics and stability (Maybe this is more easier and comfortable than default 747). I think this is unfair for landing challenge competition, and can causes controversy about cheating or something. So, I change my mod settings. (Only for my mod, not a permanent change. You can use 747 landing challenge with default 747.)
– Installation : Just unzip and copy&paste into community folder.
