After I land somewhere, I always wanted to drive around to explore local scenery. Perfect examples are of course Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Rome, and other places you didn't know they were even there, but are too good to miss. So I made myself a little GMAX car. Well, actually it is a Mercedes SL55 AMG so it is al lot of car.
And of course cars, like aircraft, have their own characteristics:
- First of all a reminder that you are using this car in a flightsimulator, a program to simulate the beauty of flight.
So don't expect your new car to behave exactly like the real one. So in other words this is some sort of "funpackage".
- The car does have a panel with gauges displaying your speed in miles per hour, RPM, fuel quantity, and oil temperature.
- The car starts of by pressing CTRL+E or another button combination assigned to "Engine autostart".
- An overspeed warning will be given when you go too fast to control the car in a descent way. If you have a track or road with small turns or no turns you can ignore it.
It does no harm to the cars structure.
- The car drives pretty stable, but if you want to take your turn at such a high speed, it can cause the car to roll over.
- When you want to "park", don't forget your parking brakes (CTRL+.) You will need them.
- FS2002 works with mesh sceneries, in our benefit, we can drive up mountains. Some mountains can be too steep and causes the car to behave irrational.
This is no bug but just a characteristic of Flight Simulator. (remember point 1)
- For all repainters out there, the car can not be "repainted". There are only textures included for headlights, rearlights, a MB logo, and your license plate.
- You can find the car under aircraft manufacturer: other
- When the car is displayed in the aircraft menu, the zoom is too high, but will be corrected when you choose the car to drive it.
