Creating Aircraft for FSX

Lockheed XFV-1 under construction

I'm currently working on a Lockheed XFV-1.
The exterior model of my XFV-1 was almost completed in 2013.
Around this time, I built the next model before one model was completed, and as a result, the number of unfinished models increased.
XFV-1 is one of them.
I wanted to change that situation.
Then, starting with the XF-91, I released my own FS model to the world.
If people pay attention to my model, I have to build a finished product at all costs.
However, as a result, the production period for each one has become long.
This XFV-1 has been unfinished for 9 years.
Had I not thought about releasing my model, it would have been flooded with unfinished aircraft.

I will complete the XFV-1 in a few months.

This was previously resolved by Rob Barendregt's VTOL gauge.
And now I'm facing a new problem.

This is my first turboprop engine.
The FSX turboprop engine is very addictive.
Idling is not stable.
The attitude of the aircraft on the ground is not stable.
It may be due to the combination with Rob Barendregt's VTOL gauge.

However, this cannot be changed.

I have a lot of trouble setting up.
Through trial and error, you will find good results by chance.
This is very tiring.

I have released some strange aircraft so far.
Each was a very hard job.
But it is also an encounter with new discoveries.
I always discover new techniques.

Those techniques will be used for the next model.
I don't want to build a strange aircraft for a while.
I want to build a regular aircraft.
