The Tiger Moth Collection

FS2002 Version

The original version for FS2002 can be found at AVSIM and Flightsim.com.

FS2004 Version

The release of FS2004 saw a few changes in dynamics which caused problems with the original FS2002 Tiger Moth. The aircraft would still fly in FS2004 but trim and handling were no longer correct. On the plus side an advantage of FS2004 is that flight instruments are XML coded and it became possible to make a complete panel from scratch.

In converting the aircraft to FS2004 I have addressed both issues. The flight dynamics problems are cured and I have now rebuilt the aircraft panel with a full set of XML gauges.

FSX Version

For FSX the most substantial change is the reworking of the textures to DXT5 standard. New FSX sections have been added to the aircraft.cfg file and thumbnails for each aircraft will appear in the FSX Aircraft Menu.
 

Tiger Panel Development

Original FS2002 Panel

The original Tiger Moth panel shown below used gauges already present in FS2002. Only the Turn and Slip and Oil Pressure gauges were true to the real aircraft's panel.

New DH82 panel with photo realistic gauges.

For the XML panel I have used photographs of the original instruments. An added bonus is that several gauges have alternative displays as real world Tiger Moths sport a wide variety of cockpit instrumentation.

Clicking on ASI, Tachometer and Altimeter will change each dial to alternative displays shown below

Note: The zips below do not include the Floatplane version as yet - I am still working on it's flight dynamics. I will release this as a separate file shortly.
