As promised, revised aircraft.cfg and .air files below:

[Edit: Files superseded - see AOP9_mod.zip below]

I hope you feel they are an improvement. Please let me have any comments here or by email.

Ding Dong!!

Quite delightful Brian :wink: I'm still seeing a fair amount of dihedral effect in the turns mind. Is this appropriate for something of this size??

Hi Dave,

I said it was WIP :smile: I think high wing aircraft can have a bit more of the dreaded dihedral effect - lets see what Martin has to say :wink:

Regards,

No mention of WIP there Brian (pulling your leg) :lol:

Agree that Martin's input necessary on the dihedral though I'd be happy with it as is.. such is the improvement over the original :wink:

Ohh Ohh looks like its going to be a late night tonight :)

I will try my best and report back but I know I wont be disappointed. Thanks Brian for taking the time to 'alter' the files - much appreciated.

Speak soon (yawn yawn - just getting into practice for tomorrow)

Brian (and Martin)

Now its a goer - I dont have Daves dihederal problem ( :wink: )
but it wants to climb a little quicker than you advertised Martin
@2000rpm - 75 IAS = almost 1000fpm - seems a little too quick
Now if we could just ask Ito-san to deflate his control surfaces :-#
It really is a delightful little aeroplane - just spent a quick 40 minutes
in the pattern at Old Sarum in the waning light - Now if I could just find that
pub under the turn to base leg :dance: :lol:

Thanks Brian - and Martin thanks for instigating

Hi Leif,

TVM for the comments. I did not start again from scratch but modified Mr Ito's files so I think we will always have a compromise :smile: I also built the FDE to the PNs which may give a bit better performance than Martin is getting now. I will hang on for any comments Martin may have and then do a bit more tweaking.

I am using a cobbled up panel at the moment with a "low speed" ASI I adapted from a default one and a mixed lot of other gauges for testing and so I don't know if there are any errors in there. If someone does update the panel, I can adjust to the new standard and also set up the engine temps and pressures properly.

Regards,

Brian W

There's something wrong with your stick then Leif!! :lol:

Rgr that Brian. I'm waiting for Martin to throw some shots together and may have a go at a panel for it.. depending on what I get. We have a suitable selection of gauges from our other Brits in the fleet to give it a more authentic look so I don't envisage anything fancy :wink: We'll see :smile:
