Wing-Fold

Hi all,
I probably should know this, but does the wing-fold command work in CFS3? I've tried a few carrier a/c models out but none seem to have it so before I waste my time just wanted to know for sure. Or tailhook, come to that?

Thanks.
 
Tailhook never worked. Wings folded on the FM-2 and it was a big deal as the could be folded in flight. I don't remember what the command was for it

Thanks Wayne, I'll take another look. As I have the Gmax, I guess that the tailhook animation could be linked in with the gear.
 
I dont think those commands work in cfs3 but id love to be proven wrong. In the past I have used the bomb-bay door key and the dive flap key if they are available. the results are visual only and far from perfect
 
CFS3 does not support carriers. I have added an animated tailhook and folding wingtips merely for show.
Folding wings animated with ‘bomb-bay doors’ key( shift-B in cfs3 default)
