X-Plane 11

X-Plane 11 RCAF DeHavilland Canada Chipmunk DHC-1 1.0.4. This is a simple conversion of Jacques Brault's X-Plane 8 and 9 DHC1 Chipmunk to X-Plane 11.

Chipmunk in XP11.This particular aircraft can be seen at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum.

X-Plane 11 is configured by default for 3D cockpit view, so to use this aircraft you must choose to do one of two things: After loading the aircraft, select 'Option-w' on MacOS for 2D or 'Alt-w' on WinOS for the 2D instrument panel.

Sounds provided by Dataroots. Thank you to Jacques Brault for creating this aircraft for X-Plane.

Developer: Sean McLeod (Aerostarsim).

Cockpit.

v1.0.4

Corrected the rotation of the prop, it now spins counter-clockwise as in the real aircraft.

v1.0.3

Fixed the ground handling, tailwheel is now full-castoring as in the real aircraft, you'd better have rudder pedals or a control stick with a twist for yaw control. That said, the ground handling is completely manageable, I just did a test flight and had no difficulties whatsoever. I found an Aircraft Flight Manual for the DHC-1B-2, now included for your information.
