It don't work for me with HSFX or UP3. :\'(

Sorry but I don't use thise packs so I cannot help you.

Those tundra tires are awesome, are those doable?

Bushwheels. Just for fun I tried this...:

I just resized the normal wheels from 1 to 2 in hier him. Now need to find a way to push them upward with the last number .
Of course new mesh/tga would be welcome. Well it's feasible, but I'm not an expert...

Older/previous type of hub would be better; and need be smaller then overall tire... ( like inner wheel hub seen here+ smaller ).
OK . Pushing upward the tires to their right place (-0.27) did not bring them out of the ground however.
Pushing up the entire airplane would result the tail being off the ground ? ; if this is so, a new longitudinal attitude angle would be needed...
Note: done on PA-18 hier.him; saw no effect when changing the PA-18(US)'s hier.him,  even with US country selected. ( map used? ) .
1.99 figure adjust/controls the width of tires; as seen below, it is 2 . Many variants made: http://www.aviationinsurors.com/bushwheel.html

LOL

Ok Better vertical fit -027 applied. Well, I hope this will inspire someone to do a better version of "BushWheels"... 
struts, ventral packs and all..

[Edlor]

Every time I see these tires on a plane I can't help but think of " The Mission " scene in the movie " Steven Spielbergs Amazing Stories" 




By the way thanks for the big wheels Hubberranz

[Hubberranz]

Thanks 4 the big tires Hubberanz

I tried your skin with older tires meshes, it works, but sadly not as round; don't know why hub do not appear the same on Monty's.> see next Post.

I have seen that 'movie': the wheels were drawn by one desperate crew !
I wonder why he stands UNDER the plane, given the "enchantment" may end at any moment. 

[Hubberranz]

Super; well done !    = RealDarko's Pa-18 +Monty's wheels+ my hier settings + Fly's textures in the Textures File.
Also thanks to Fly for the new skin   in post 17  ! ( as per picture of post 8 ).

[SAS~Monty27]

What a great community spirit, you guys are the best!  I made a JSGME Switch for this aircraft so I can have either type of wheels depending on location.  I would like to include this beautiful plane in a new compilation, currently under development, along with the Tyre-Choice switch.

This plane reminds me of the one in the movie Cherry 2000



I don't know why this youtube video is in French?

[Hubberranz]

I don't think VHS (?) offered alternate sound tracks ( like DVD ); so that's probably the version he had.
Even though my native tong is French, I hate translations. I like to feel the actor's gut performance, not some ill inspired reader in a studio. 
still Nice Video !    PM sent to Monty.

D struts, ventral packs and all..

  the slot for this version fashion is ready. Communicate with the Bison M

[Hubberranz]

Thanks fly ! 

Will do for Law Enforcement !

Hooks: somebody (?) suggested sinking in ground had to do with hooks; so here it is: I adjusted hooks for the Bush Tires.

Values set at -1.90 puts the tires on exact "touch down". No tail wheel problem.

Since these are soft tires, I experimented and found - 1.780 to be the best look ( from set originally at -1.636 ).
