Project Source Files

 

Please note these are design files - the files used in the design of aircraft in FS Design Studio or GMax. (see Design Page for details) - they are NOT useable in FS as they are.

Have you come up against a brick wall with a design project & think someone else may be able to pick up where you left off? If so - this is the place where prospective designers may be able to deliver your conception out of the hanger & into the virtual air!

Picking up these files can also be a great way to learn how to design aircraft & other 3d designs!

When donating please include as much info as you can including any 3 views you have been using, scale details & other vital info. Pass on your hard work!

Important Note: Use of these files requires the user to adhere to international copyright law.

Orphan FSC TXT Template: Ideal & easy template providing essential info for any designer taking these files. By Felix Rodriguez. (text file - 'save as') 1K
FSDS Canadair CT-114 Tutor: CT114_Tutor.fsc
Does not include backdrops or any SDL Macros. Overall shape done to the point where backdrops are no longer needed. I have been designing this with great care (And affection too!) and I hope this will suit your needs. I have done this aircraft to closely match the true aircraft specs and hope you find it to be a pleasure to model. -Public Domain- By Bonzonie. 203K
FSDS Vans Rv-7a - Aerodynamika Study Project #1. FSDS source file (fsc) with basic textures, extra parts and basic three-views used. by Felix Rodriguez of Freeflight Design Shop/Pegasus Aviation Design. File Adyn_Rv7a.zip, 448K
FSDS RW-1A Stiletto. I made this plane just to see how different features in FS Design Studio worked. Nothing real about it, just a fictional design. Made to be an advancedtrainer for future F-22 & JSF pilots, it has the same engine the F-22 and JSF have. 297K
FSDS Cessna 340A by 'BE58D'. Views included. 346K
FSDS C-3605 Swiss Federal Aircraft Factory: This was my 1st project with FSDS - inspired by the regular sighting of one of these wonderful machines over my house with the beautiful powerful swiss engineered engine droning peacefully through the sky. Do with it what you like - it would be great to see someone finish it. Much of the work is already done. Info - views & photo's included. Pete Daly. 1MB
FSDS Dassault - Breguet / Dornier Alpha Jet. This was another project I had the typical FSDS experience with (for impatient gubers like me) - I ran up against a brick wall in regard to the animations - a twisting & retracting main gear requires SDLEdit - a thing I just haven't come to terms with yet. Much (most) of the work is done) ............ Views, pics & info enclosed. Pete Daly. 829K
FSDS Fictional CFS2 Bomber: this was intended to be a large unrealistic bomber for use in cfs2. i know it isn't great, but its a start. you can use it for whatever you want i really don't care. all I ask is you give me some credit for it. by dennis mahan(denn454). 84K
FSDS Boeing F/A-18C Hornet FSC File. This is an FSC file for the Boeing F/A-18C Hornet Naval Strike Fighter. This one does not have any backdrops included so I recommend downloading one from Boeing.com to finish it off. The basic shape is still far from finished. Most notable are the absence of intakes. The Fuselage, Wings and Nose are almost done, But you will have to do snap-to-scale to remove any bad shading and duplicate points. There are no landing gears yet. The Canopy is done, But you will still have to cut out the cockpit and build it. Have fun! Kotaro Akikawa (Bonzonie). 98K
FSDS B-2A Spirit FSC File Primary Mission The B-2's primary mission is to enable any theater commander to hold at risk and, if necessary, attack an enemy's war-making potential, especially those time-critical targets which, if not destroyed in the first hours or days of a conflict, would allow unacceptable damage to be inflicted on the friendly side. (Boeing.com) Here are the remains of my failed attempt to model the B-2!! Actually, It's just that I lost interest and moved onto the B-52. The Wings are almost done, But everything else needs lots of work. I'm not sure if this was worth releasing, But I thought it was better than letting this file rot on my CD The cockpit needs extra attention to blending into the wing, and the engine naccels are absent. ALthough this is still missing lots of pieces, I hope you'll benefit from it one way or the other!Good luck building! Kotaro Akikawa (Bonzonie). 40K
FSDS FSC: UK F4M Phantom of the 1980's, I had started it as part of an RAF 60's-80's series. No doubt I will get back to it in time. In the meantime please have a go yourselves. In FSDS I scaled the backdrops at 1 to 14. Views included. Brian Franklin 424K
FSDS Piper PA-28 Cherokee FSC : This was to be my first project, but I found that I wanted to design a fast jet. So this one was left on the back burner. It was going to be the a copy of the plane I learned to fly in G-CWFZ of Cardiff Wales Flying Club based at Cardiff Airport in Wales (EGFF). Please could you credit me if you choose to use this FSC.

GMax Sky Racer M400***** This is a Gmax file containing a fictional design of the M400. In reality, the M400 is short, wide, and carries up to four passengers. This is a racer that is long, narrow, and is a single-seater. It is entirely complete except for the cockpit. The reason why I am sending this out like this, is that my computer says that it has failed to convert it to a *.mdl file. Hopefully someone will find the solution to this nightmare and e-mail it to me. You people can do whatever you want with it, but keep in mind that I deserve credit for the design. .By Jessy Corrales. 24K

Abandoned Tie Fighter (.3ds) Project. Didn't run into anytrouble, just don't know how to make anything else. Tie Fighter Model, made in CADKEY and exported as a .3ds (3D Studio) file. I know G-Max can inport this file, but I'm not sure about FSDS2. Just exterior model only, no cocpit, panel, VC, or anything else. Would be glad if someone can finish this and would even be nicer if someone can make a DVC for this. If you do decide to finish this, then please make it FREEWARE, and make it either FS9 or CFS3, so I can enjoy it :). Model by Jeff "Stormtropper" Guo. 20MB
