    Old Man of Hoy - Orkney - Image 1

    Description

    As suggested by  wanchaibanzai  this is a 3d model of the Old Man of Hoy sea stack in Orkney plonked down in what I hope is the right place and position. 

    I of course did not make this. You may thank Dr Hugo Anderson-Whymark of Sketchfab fame for making it. I presume this was a drone scan. 

    I've removed the trees from the vicinity and added some rock models to surround the stack. Since this coastline twitches I didn't do too many of them as that'll make it dance from a distance. 

    Visibility should be fine for all the distance you need. It's not collidable but you jolly well shouldn't be flying into it. There is a platform at the top with a landable surface but it's at an angle and once again you should NOT be doing this. I'll have your licence for that.

    Makes this collidable. No more flying through it to impress the laydeez.

    Was so disappointed to see the regular sim representation (or lack of) on an Orkney circuit last year. Cool to see this one. You even gave me a sort of helipad. Cheers!


    Landed my helo fine, but soon found myself sliding backwards off it. So cool.
