Randall,
I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to you. The GPS and a couple other instruments aren't there. The plane starts off with a lot of nose up trim and it has so much power that you have to get right on top of that. Controls are sensitive, so if you want nice easy landings you have to adjust your joystick sensitivities. Also, the Imp doesn't really stall, but at stall speed you can't control it. -- Al Mills Wake me before we take off... "Randall Robertson" wrote in message ...

Thanks working on all that..the plane was easy it's all the flight dynamics that take a little time to work out Well, the stall issue is very similar to my ultralight which can be seen at http://home.comcast.net/~al-mills It (mine) will stall, nastily sliding towards the lower wing if you stall it in a turn. In straight and level it won't stall, it mushes and you can control it. You either have to add power or lean forward a bit to get the speed back up, preferably before you get to the ground because it will not flare in a mush. The biggest issue I had with the imp was the severe nose up default trim. The second was the pane / instruments not there. The plane flies really fast and yet lands slowly enough so that's pretty nice. I usually fly a Cub or something small like that, and I was caught off guard by the sensitivity of the controls on the Imp. That's overcome-able though. I do want to thank you and everyone that contributes to all the neat planes and scenery I can get for my sim. Al Mills Wake me before we take off... |
