Idea - Making my own aircaft compnay for Flight Sims

[Page]

Hello, if you are not aware I'm into flying and everything has to do with aviation. This is an idea regarding setting up my own little business or more than a hobby to make money 🙂

But I have no idea how to start as I would need a team of people who are into making aircraft for flight sims. I'm no software or developer by any means and so it's like getting people who are developers and 3D modelling designers

I will be like the guy who promotes and tests and builds a public relationship and whatnot - I'm a streamer who also does things on websites and a hardware person more so than software hahaha

The hard part is money - there is none ;( other than once the aircraft is released at a price point at whatever the income the team gets ex-amount each..... Or GoFundMe

Unless the team willing to volunteer and have freeware products as a hobby

What kind of money are we talking about?

What are the going rates for selling aircraft on any of the marketplaces for flight sims? If I remember right, Microsoft has a partner program that you join for flight sims. You have to fill out an app and see if you get in.

EDIT: I think it is a good idea. You have a lot of work finding people to make the aircraft. Unless you can pay out of pocket yourself.

I would start with doing freeware, to get the name out there and say to the people what we can offer and who we are then consider going a step level and release payware, it has to be good in terms of what people want for their money.

Price, depends, on the cost to make, whether is it going to be study-level, textures and the details and avionics point of view

Really in all in all, I would have to start myself as a single person and then move up as I go and build. The option is to get a 3Dmodel aircraft that is already been made and import it into the flight sims and do edit in Blender tweaks to get it working and fly it.
