Movies


The following two movies show the AVRS instructor station and the new helictoper flight model and rope simulation. It should be noted that the new cargo system will work for any load (including a vehicle with four ropes, for example). These improvements are only available as part of the AVRS and will not be implemented in the standard VBS1 distribution. The improvements won't be implemented in Real Virtuality 2 until the AVRS is updated for VBS2.
