Some shots of the recently released MV-22 Osprey in "what-if" RN colours. :worried:

MV-22 by Maryadi, repaint by me.

A rather good model, still in beta but fully usable. :thumbsup:

I did wonder if that was a bit of your art work :lol:

I've been following the thread over at SoH. The model looks great I have to say.. much better than the old Virtavia model. Not sure if I feel like being 'systems intensive' though. RobB's comment that on his system, his FR's 'only' dropped from 30 to 25 on loading the model turned me off a bit too. His system specs are precariously close to mine :worried:

I find it works great on W7 :) but runs out of memory on XP :(

Thanks George. I only keep my XP machine as a fall-back for years of stuff downloaded. I'll give it a try though it's not 'strictly speaking' my thing.

I've not looked at the frame rates but it seems smooth enough to me.
It's not a ctrl-E and go fly job though. RTFM is definitely required. :lol:

Too right Dave, took me a while to work out how to tilt the rotors.

I think this is an impressive acheivement for someone that hasn't built anything in FS-X before (actually, it's pretty impressive either way).

Indeed John. He's put a huge amount of work into this, learning how to do many things from scratch along the way.
