Aerosoft Hughes H-1 updated to 1.10

From their forum:

Hello Folks,

There is now an update available for the Hughes H1 to bring it upto V1.10.
This is available from the FAQs/Updates Section at www.aerosoft.com

What the update contains..

1.10 Update (and final build)

- Prop tables changed to more realistic values, so engine rpm behaves
more realistic in all flight situations, especially when running at low
pitch/high rpm, windmilling effect has been reduzed and the engine does
not run on top RPM all the time. Also takeoff acceleration on the runway
is now more realistic.

- Drag behaviour of propeller, fuselage and flaps updated.

- Pitch Stability changed for all flight situations, three point landings
become more easier, plane is harder to pull at high speeds

- Sounds updated and corrected

- Third paint scheme added which utilizes the RED winged racer.
This had been done to satisfy rumours which consisted of the existence of
that plane instead the blue one with white letters from the release.

- Cooling situation of the engine has been updated to allow longer high
speed flight, now also cools faster down when Manifold Pressure is reduced.

- REF/DOC htmls updated for correct new flight data values

- Shading of the front panel has been a bit reduced.

- Paintkit will be released afterwards, but needs some time to provide
accurate documentation.

- Video with correct approach and landing setup will also be released
afterwards. THe H-1 cannot be landed like a Cessna. Is has much more
wingload, which result in much less lift especially at low speeds.
So you have to come in steeply, a reference could be to see the touchdown
point just over the engine nacelle upper edge. This will give some 6-8 deg
descend angle. Thats very steep, but you will need that rest energy when
flaps are out. On the end a energic but controlled flare will settle you
down almost perfectly at 70-75 MPH. The Racer is at the top end so 75 MPH,
the longwing with some less wingload at around 70 MPH for touchdown.

I like the improved engine sounds, the cockpit looks a bit sharper now and the plane feels better in the air and on the ground.

However I don't hear sounds anymore when using the wobble pump, parking brake, fuel selectors and switchs in the cockpit, just when I open or close the canopy. Does anyone else have this problem too?
 
I posted a link to this thread on the Aerosoft forum and quoted Antoninus's description of the problem.
 
i hate how simmarket handles updates, now i have to download the whole thing again and uninstall my previous version

It's actually a completely new install from Aerosoft too....so you don't have anymore pain than the rest of us :mixedsmi:

Solved in a new build, sorry, problem in the installer. Just download the same file and install it again.

Yes if more then 50% of the files are changed in some way we normally do a full new build as it is easier on customers. With any kind of update there is a great increase in customer support that we do not get when it is a full new build.
 
:jump: !! UPDATE !! :jump:

The new version released yesterday had a wrong link in the installer for the sounds.

A new "fixed" installer is now available.

On the Aerosoft site - log into Your account and download the Hughes H-1 installer again.

It still says 1.10, but it has been fixed.
