Apparently they have spent a lot of time on them (bearing in mind this hasn't been developed by the DSB team, but by another developer, Sigma), and it can be stably flown down to 10 kts

I'll let you know when I purchase it (when Broadbands back on again!) Grin

Well after reading this, i had to buy it, as i love harriers...im not disapionted thats for sure...lovely 3d model, very nice VC, 2d panel excellent...and after about 10 mins of tweaking my controls, i actually got it to hover steady at 0kts. flight dynamics are great, really feels good and stable to fly....although ive got a problem with RAF Wittering not showing correctly, only get the runway none of the taxi ways just white lines where they should be Sad

, but all in all a very well made Harrier.

It is real nice, got it the other day.

Is anybody having the following visual problem?
When slowing down to hover and land, the ailerons go berserk. The aircraft flight dynamics are not effected, but visually they are flapping like a bird Roll Eyes

Don't waste your money on something that you can get as SHAREWARE.

How do you mean - the DSB/Sigma Harrier is payware and available via DSB and Simmarket only as far as I'm aware...

Which is suposidly robbed from the EXACT same file on avsim, same coding style as the guy who created the freeware file..

Careful Andy - we don't want to get involved in what seems quite a complex situation which may not directly be the fault of DSB, but the developer who "developed" the XML file in question for them.

See Avsim forums for the full (amicable) discussion.
