Airbrake improvement #100

Closed viktorradnai closed 7 years ago

viktorradnai commented 7 years ago

@D-ECHO please make the airbrakes come out as far as it's shown on page 6 in the manual: https://www.capmembers.com/media/cms/ASK21__Schleicher__Flight_Manual_0F12AEE54A4A2.pdf

The front of the airbrake is painted orange: http://rs231.pbsrc.com/albums/ee247/jetpack_photos/Revell%20Gliders/airbreak_zps1bacd991.jpg~c200

Not sure about the back, I'll try to check next time. Could well be the same colour.

Wow, this looks great! But it seems that the left airbrake is missing a support rod, it's only held by one.

Model part done in PR #107 @gilbertohasnofb you wanna do the texture part (orange) or shall I?

gilbertohasnofb commented 7 years ago

I can do it if you would like. What about if I add an appropriate orange texture to the top right corner of Models/blank-wings.png? Also, do you have a reference how that should look like or should I just create a metallic orange texture?

viktorradnai commented 7 years ago

It's not shiny IIRC. It might be made of fibreglass as well.

@gilbertohasnofb in the texture repo I added the speedbrake uvmap to D-3981-wings.xcf, at this position you can paint it :D it should be the same for front and back

gilbertohasnofb commented 7 years ago

@D-ECHO that's great, thanks a lot! I am waiting for @viktorradnai 's pictures to see exactly how this should be done. Also, I am very busy_ until Monday evening (job + PhD application), but I will get to this texture (as well as the bottom panel) very very soon.

No problem @gilbertohasnofb take your time, RL is always the most important! :D

viktorradnai commented 7 years ago

Hi, i've uploaded some pics to Google Drive. They were taken with a phone in poor light so some are blurry but I hope they'll help. I was going to take better ones today but the weather was so bad we didn't even fly. I'll take more tomorrow if I can.

@D-ECHO Great. I should be able to work on these on Monday or Tuesday @viktorradnai excellent pictures, thanks a lot!

viktorradnai commented 7 years ago

@gilbertohasnofb @D-ECHO I have uploaded a few more pictures to Google Drive. They show some more detail such as the cable attachment points for the rudder (inside their fairing at the end of the tail), the trim adjusters, air vents, the area behind the instructor's head (above the wing main spar), the pitot tube inside the hole in the nose, etc. I have also taken pictures of complete gliders with an emphasis on trying to assess how shiny (or not) the surface looks when light shines on it from different angles.

Warning: the last four cockpit images are an ASK23, not an ASK21. It looks quite similar.

viktorradnai commented 7 years ago

The photo needs to be manipulated to bring out detail in the shadow. I'll try to do that later.

Guys, tomorrow I will have some free time so I will take care of the bottom panel and airbrakes textures.

gilbertohasnofb commented 7 years ago

@D-ECHO In which branch did you make the modifications to the spoiler? I have seen that in the ASK21-textures repo you added the UV-map layer to the file D-3981-wings.xcf, but once I have the texture ready where should I push it to?

Branch newspoiler :D
