With this plane I had the direct help of the creator of the plane in real life. Was amaizing the ammount of data given to me, and the help I received to make an accurate flight model.
The project was born in the halt period of the CRJ200. I was unemploy and the only product I was selling was the
Javelin32.
I alwasy are looking for "sexy" planes, and surely the Seamax is sexy. Not only a float plane but amphibian, with a nice wheel system, and nothing stick with the floats.
The testings where good, but there has been a big problem always in XPlane with float planes. The wave amplitude are not reflected in 3D, so you never know the waves where are comming. And that is of a huge important when landing or taking off. So the movement of the plane was great on watter when waves were produced, but you never know to which direction the plane was going to turn. That is the reason I alwasy recomend users of the Seamax to put almost flat water.
XPlane11 and the plane needs improvements in it, but once I did something to it (people has to ask that file in the forum) then it loads and it can be used inside.
Product description
Seamax is the ultimate light sport aircraft (LSA) amphibian. Designed for both pleasure or mission-specific operations, it redefines typical concepts of beauty, speed, range, endurance, comfort and versatility. The optical-quality one-piece canopy offers breathtaking visibility while ensuring superior instrument panel ergonomics.
This aircraft comes packed with manipulator technology, allowing you a better in-sim experience of the aircraft and its instruments.
It provides nice, slow flight, and the ability to challenge yourself on your water landings.
Be careful! You may have too much weight on board! Releasing excess weight from water is doable by utilizing the bilge pump.
The Seamax also comes with a retractable water rudder. All it takes is one click and you will have the water rudder up or down.
We've also included beautiful lighting effects, allowing you to see the glow of the instruments and the flashing of the strobe lights by night!
Want to play around with eye candy some? We've included some of that too!
You can open the cockpit door, open the air window for some fresh air, and mirrors on the wings allow you to tell whether your landing gear are fully retracted or not.
We're also including a Photoshop template set (PSD format) to make your own livery, but we're also giving you two liveries ready to fly with your purchase.
Created in conjuntion with the designer of the real aircraft.
Have fun!
