Goblin Blades on Pheonix

[Gixxer]

I've nothing against the Edge blades on the Goblin in Phoenix but it would be nice if they gave us the option to edit them. Instead, they've placed them in an encrypted bitmap file that nothing can open. It can't even be opened in their own editor!

Anyway... it took a while to figure it out but I managed to repair their 'broken' bitmap files in a hex editor, so we can now have different blades on the Goblin.

I've done the original green blades for now. I couldn't find any decent pictures online so they're not 100% right but they're OK... I'll do some more later.

Browse to your program files directory... /PhoenixRC/resources/objects/aircraft/helicopters/Electric/goblin700

Make a backup of your 'goblin700_blades' .bmp file and replace with the one above

You're the MAN.

While you are at it, get the pitch going the right way...

I've done another 10 or 12 colours... Just remove the colour name from the front of the file and install as before but don't forget to back up your other versions before doing so.

I've just been informed that if named correctly, these can al be associated with a different colour heli and can all reside in the same folder.

Quote:

there is also the method of adding different colored blades
to match different color schemes, by placing the blades .bmp file in the
PhoenixRC\Schemes sub-folder of the "Documents" directory,
(usually found e.g. in C:\Users\

your_username

\Documents\PhoenixRC\Schemes)

As an example, if someone has named the Green model scheme bitmap image

goblin700#Green.bmp

and has placed this file in the user scheme directory,
then he can rename your blades scheme

goblin700_blades#Green.bmp

and place this file in this same directory.

I'll give it a try but it looks like it should work.

I don't mind... it gave me something to do


I can confirm that the method suggested above to assign blades to each heli does work!
