This mod enhances the Roland Laborie - Canadair CL-215 v1.0 to make it more realistic for the advanced user, mainly it adds a custom waterdrop effect, RPM control, magneto logic, manual mixture control, starter functionality, and much more.
MODIFICATIONS:
- RPM and CARB HEAT control
- Waterdrop: Uses the more realistic waterdrop effect from TouchingCloud and simulates the weight of water scooped.
- Ignition/magneto, mixture, emergency prop feather, primer, starter, ... implemented.
- Fuel pumps and Crossfeed realistic functionality
- Default cockpit cameras: Cameras.cfg remade from scratch
- Engine fixes: Engine and prop parameters improvements
- Engine smoke: Corrected starting position and vector
- Custom Cockpit textures and lighting, annunciator panels, loading stations ...
- Adds drag when water scooping probes are deployed in water
- Default livery thumbnails: Changed to better fit with other aircraft in MSFS using the default style
work in progress features added regularly
INSTALLATION:
Make sure to back up your original installation! Place the contents of the unpacked archive folder in the aircraft folder (cl215-aircraft or rolandlaborie-aircraft-cl215 ), and overwrite files when asked to do so.
- Do not use addon-linker for this mod, manually overwrite the aircraft folder.
- If you have throttle control issues after the latest sim update change your old throttle axis to both throttle axis 1 and 2
EXPERIMENTAL RADIAL SOUND MOD:
To install the work in progress radial engine sounds download the additional archive and place the contents in the aircraft folder. The sound pack will only work if you installed the mod first.

How's this working in the era of SU12? I've been on an Ice Pilots NWT binge and was thinking of picking up the Laborie CL-215. But definitely would want to have this mod if I'm going to fly it! 😊 Saw some issues reported a few months ago but wasn't sure if those were due to updates or were just specific to the user's setup. Thanks!

I go on one of those binges ever so often myself haha.
The poor duck has been gathering dust in the hangar for a bit too long, as most of my time has been consumed by the DC-3 lately. The latest updates by the original author caused some issues, that would need addressing, it has been a bit of a nightmare trying to make the mod work across multiple updates without sharing too many of the original files since it is a payware plane. I actually need to allot some time to get it shipshape again and bring some of the features I developed for the DC-3 to the duck, like the automatic mixture system.

Hello. Thank you for the work but where to find the good sound? The radial engine sound? Because the sound of DA62 for Canadair is just horrible.

Hey! When you click download, there is an additional file below the main one you can click to download the radial sounds.

Thanks for making this plane better !
Is there any way to assign a key to the open the water probe now ?
2 years ago
Thanks!
It's CABIN SEATBELTS ALERT SWITCH TOGGLE, don't think you can bind that one in MSFS settings, but should be doable with the programs like spad.next or FSUIPC.
I should rewrite that from default to something that is a bit easier to assign with MSFS. Thanks for the suggestion!

Will you be doing a mod for his Cl415? Also is there a way to take the water effects from the Cl215 mod and use them in the 415? Thanks!!
2 years ago
Hey, I didn't even know the 415 was out already, the effects can indeed be added, I'm using TouchingCloud's effects which are free to use for other projects.
EDIT:
Water drop effect for the CL-415 here

love this but wish the textures were better especially the cockpit. Really like the idea of fire suppression missions interactive has a lot of potential.
