RealFlight G3.5 includes amazing night flying capabilities! Modelers can fly in the bright light of the day or in the darkest of night at All of G3.5's 3D flying sites. G3.5's Carnival night flying site even includes all of the sideshows and attractions that you'd expect to see at a carnival -- even rides that move and the sequential lights of the Ferris Wheel. Additionally, G3.5 includes a nighttime version of the Grass Flatlands PhotoField Site! RealFlight's amazingly accurate RealPhysics technology has been enhanced to capture the jaw-dropping 4-D physics of variable pitch propeller systems. Aircraft on G3.5 behave just as they would in the real-world. Streamers can be attached to planes. They react accordingly to prop wash and blowing winds, modelers can change the number of streamers as well as their length, color and location. Unmatched collision detection- G3.5 'blankets' the entire aircraft with sensors that ensure every every point on the aircraft registers a collision. The aircraft will react authentically to all collisions- no matter how minor. In the event of a wing shear or collision, the aircraft may break apart, but will continue its flight reflecting the damage as the pieces flutter to the ground. Reactive 3D Objects- Just as they would in the real-world, 3D objects react when impacted. For example, hitting a limbo bar knocks it off, while running into a barrel may cause it to roll along the ground. Ambient Sounds- Adding to the realism, G3.5 now includes many ambient sound effects. Pilots may hear corresponding sounds such as the mooing of a cow or the hum of a tractor's diesel engine. Virtual Flight Instruction- G3.5 includes flying lessons from the Pros! Complete with voiceover commands and video display of the proper stick movements. Hover Training Aids- G3.5 includes a hovering training aid for both airplane and helicopter pilots. Designed to put modelers on the 'fast track' to hovering, this tool allows the end-user to determine what channel- or channels- to control and the PC does the rest. As more skills are acquired, modelers can add more channels and increase the challenge until they're ready for total control. Heli Orientation Training- Users play follow-the-leader with the on-screen "ghost" heli. Sucessfully, matching the "ghost" heli advances them to the next level- increasing their skills along the way! G3.5's AccuModel aircraft editor allows users to alter virtually anything on their aircraft. Selections include, but are not limited to: airfoils, propellers, wingspan, rotor blades...and a whole lot more! Any desired aircraft modifications are graphically represented on a wire-frame model and reflected instantly on screen. With 'drag and drop' simplicity, G3.5's FlexiField flying site editor allows modelers to modify existing airports or create entirely new airports using the mouse and a few keyboard stokes. ReadySelect preview boxes reflect trim scheme changes instantly and allows a 360 walk around preview of the selected aircraft and/or trim scheme. TruFlo Wind Dynamics capture the true nature of wind as it affects flight. Five wind fields offer subtle variations. As winds collide their strength varies accordingly and aircraft will feel the "bump" of a thermal as they approach the top of a mountain or hill. Interlink Plus Controller can be used as a stand-alone controller AND an interface. The built-in interface works with most 4-12 channel FM or PPM-selectable radios that have a trainer jack. Also features a push button reset, adjustable stick lengths and knurled stick ends for sure grip. MultiMode allows two pilots to fly on the same PC simultaneously. Split screen imaging allows free flight "tag" or one on one tutoring. Easy one-click installation..simple enough for novice PC users! Streamlined menus reorganized to bring the most often used functions to the front to cut search time. Previous RealFlight favorites are included such as: Heads-up NavGuide Multi-Cam picture-in-picture Playback and Record modes Skill Events for single-player practice, or multi-player, on-line competition Adjustable pilot perspective
