A quick heads up for all the friendly x737 pilots: We have almost finalized the new 3D wings & engines, looking back to the most complex parts we had to build. The x737 plugin is doing a good job in wingflex and enhanced engine animation, leading and trailing edge device control, exterior light, exceeding X-Plane’s generic capabilities by far. No need to tell so many words – just go to our x737 project website and watch the new preview video. Oops: Broadband access is recommended, it is a 4 minutes mp4 preview weighing 28MB. It’s worth, I believe!
Enjoy the movie and the soundtrack, and let me know if you find visible bugs (I found one : the 3rd LE device right wing has a non-glossy surface, don’t mind! Any comment is of course appreciated.
Best,
Benedikt

Trinity Products Inc. have announced a new addition to their Nitro Program in the Research and Development team, with Ed Bridges from EB Mods. For those of you that may not already know Ed, he is the founder of EB Mods and a very experienced nitro R/C racer and mechanic. Ed had the following to say about the deal:

I made this move to Trinity to build a strong foundation with them and to make Trinity my home. Past business relations have always been month to month agreements with large orders of engines leaving little room for product development and support. Truth be told, I’ve been trying to get in with Trinity for a few years now, but Trinity never had a true nitro engine program in place, like they do with Jim Dieter in the electric division. So when I heard Trinity might start a new Nitro Program I contacted them and expressed my interest and went through the steps to get here. We all know in electric that Trinity is #1, so I hope to help make that true with nitro. Trinity has stepped-up and offered me the opportunity to prove this!
