the wings are installed upside down?

You're inverted.

What do you want to say?


He said your airplane was upside down.


Ok, I try to check that.
It's possible because calculation are made in one coordinate system, and
render in another.

thanks

Ok if someone could explain me that, I will be very happy

Please don't call it a plane.
Readers here may take it badly, present company included.

guys, give the man a break; he is apparently trying to
learn something, albeit from a rather original angle,
and his question is not (IMHO and all that) out of place
in this newsgroup.

I.e., put yourself in his shoes, and imagine that you would
like to learn how, say, a submarine works (I know nothing
about submarines, so that's what I picked to illustrate my
point); playing around with a submarine sim would not be
the silliest way to get started, would it? actually he doesn't
just 'play around with', but actually went further and looked
at the code and the physics involved, which is quite a bit
smarter. Then, the next step of asking questions to submariners
sounds reasonable to me; now, let's say that all submariners
newsgroups happen to be in Russian (a language which I don't
master, hence the choice to illustrate my point, not just
out of cheap irony), chances are that I would not make the
best choice of words.

let's not scare away a potential new recruit! :-)

What goes down must come up . . .

Except of course Russian submarines ;-)

There are more planes at the bottom of the ocean than subs in the sky...

If you're on a simulator, maybe your joystick or yolk is set up
incorrectly? (pitch reversed).

As anyone on this group will tell you in an instant, stalling is not
about pitch *per se*, but angle of attack. That said, one pulls up to
case a stall, and pushes down to get out of one -- unless you're
inverted, or your controls are rigged backwards (which, unfortunately,
has been known to happen).

If your yolk is set up incorrectly, you're bound to be scrambled.

Damn, that's my first USENET spelling snip in... well, a little while.
