0.2.0: OpenHornet Takes Flight!

Welcome Aboard the Maiden Flight

The entire OpenHornet team is ecstatic to unveil the first-ever public beta release of OpenHornet - a landmark achievement for the flight simulation community! Embark on an unprecedented journey with us as we release the comprehensive suite of hardware drawings and manufacturing files essential for constructing your very own OpenHornet simulator cockpit. This release, formerly known under the codename "beta1," marks the beginning of an exhilarating chapter in flight simulation history at long last.

Important Notices for Co-Pilots:

Note

🚨 Software Guidance: The current release does not include software. Rest assured, version 0.3.0 will introduce a software baseline, drawing upon the collective wisdom and contributions of our dedicated community.

Note

🚨 UFC Advisory: The UFC (Up Front Controller) blueprints are included strictly for academic curiosity. Its current design is non-functional and should not be built as design modifications are currently underway. A future release will officially clear it for takeoff.

Our Squadron Leaders:

A thunderous round of applause for our Ultimate Supporters, whose unwavering support propels OpenHornet beyond the stratosphere:

• Sandra, Higgins, Chaps, [OCS] CrazyCanuck, Arribe VCAW-1, FL370Pilot, CorgiStyle, Swaney409, DenzilLee, ssgcline, and Tyler | "Soapbox" - F-15E

Your commitment and enthusiasm keep our mission soaring.
