  • Description

    Tilt Rotor is poised to revolutionize the way we fly. By combining the speed, altitude, and comfort of a turboprop with the vertical takeoff and landing capabilities of a helicopter, we can enjoy the best of both worlds.

    No longer will airstrips and airports be necessary for high flying executive travel.

    Full-size, fixed-wing aircraft capacity means more space for special functions like short-haul airline work, medical evacutations, military payloads and much more, with the convenience of VTOL helicopter operation or VSTOL in tight corners!

    With an operational ceiling of 25,000 ft., this versatile aircraft will fly in icing conditions and extreme climates, from the Arctic to the desert with a range of 750 nautical miles and cruising speeds of 275 knots.
    Transition from vertical to conventional flight is a breeze in this aeroplane and the on-board systems all combine to make life easier for the pilot under extreme conditions.

    The Wilco Publishing Tilt Rotor is a simulation of the Bell Agusta 609, developed by Bell Agusta Aerospace Company, a joint venture of Bell Helicopter Textron, Inc. and Agusta Westland. With prototypes already flying, its official certification is scheduled for 2010.

    This simulation breaks new ground in Flight Simulator! No other VTOL/VSTOL simulation comes close to replicating smooth transitional flight the way this Tilt Rotor does. Simply, it goes where Microsoft hadn’t intended and does it comfortably and successfully.

    Nothing out there delivers the same levels of exhilaration and sheer fun of flying the Tilt Rotor!

    FSX MISSIONS FEATURES

    Tilt Rotor comes with 4 advanced missions specifically designed for Flight Simulator X :

    • Hurricane Evacuation - Location : Gulf of Mexico – Level : Advanced
    • High Roller Shuttle - Location : French Riviera - Level : Intermediate
    • Carrier Resupply - Location : Gibraltar – Level : Advanced
    • Everest Rescue - Location : Mount Everest – Level : Expert

    Tilt Rotor features a total of 12 missions (4 missions under day, night and IFR conditions).With a simple change to the mission setup menu in FSX, the Tilt Rotor can be used to complete all the helicopter missions available as standard.

    As the real aircraft is, as of today’s date, still in prototype testing, some features of the real aircraft may not be fully or correctly simulated. Tilt Rotor has been developed within the limits of confidentiality and available information.

    Requirements

    • Microsoft Flight Simulator X (Windows XP/Vista) / Flight Simulator 2004 (Windows XP) or Prepar3D 4

    Grafisch nutzt Wilco hier nicht das volle Potenzial, aber schön siehts trotzdem aus. Leider frißt das Glascockpit verdammt viel Rechenleistung. Ich empfehle hochdetailierte Cockpits in den Einstellungen zu deaktivieren. Die Avionik ist hier und da doppelt, aber sie ist vollständig, funktioniert und man findet schnell was man sucht :-) Die Zweiteilung der Steuerung ist hier Programm. Und genauso fallen auch die Gefühle beim Fliegen aus. Im Turboprop-betrieb könnte ich Freudensprünge machen. Keine Piste ist zu kurz. Reisehöhe und -geschwindigkeit sind im nu erreicht. Glaubwürdig erscheint die nervöse Rollachse vor allem in Turbolenzen. Denn die Flügel sind kurz und mächtigen Propeller ganz außen. Ich bin mir sicher in der Realität gibt es kein direktes Umschalten zwischen den beiden Modi, aber im FSX läßt es sich wohl nicht vermeiden. Es ist extrem abrupt und es sollte immer genügend Höhe vorgehalten werden. Als großer Heli-fan möchten ich im Heli-modus am liebsten schreiend weglaufen. Der fühlt sich einfach nur steif an und so als ob es keine Physikengine gibt. Ich nenne diesen Modus lieber Taximodus, denn das klappt hier wirklich unvergleichbar. Mein Fazit: Für Buschpiloten und mich als Airhawler-spieler ideal. Kurze Pisten, große Lasten managet kein Flugzeug besser wie dieses und bei schlechter Sich kann man sich im Heli-modus sicher dem Landbereich nähern. Auch für Sightseeing wundervoll, da man mal eben in der Luft verweilen kann. Aber eben nix für Realismuspuristen.
