FLYING:
The flight model is based on the Cessna 182, but created
using the Experimental Prop Aircraft from ASD/FS4. In this flight
model, the weight was changed to reflect the empty weight of the
plane (1750 lbs) and 2 average passengers (170 lbs each). Power is
set to 260 HP as in the real plane.
Handling is gentle and slow. This is not a plane for performing
aerobatics and is moderately heavy on the controls.
Just start from the mode file and start the engine using the
menu options (M-5) and move the throttle up (multiple presses of F3
or F4 for full throttle).
LANDING:
Throttle down, (25% or less) and fly down to landing.
Sink rate is very low at any throttle setting, so just point the
nose down a bit. If you have floating problems on landing,
then throttle back and point the nose down or use less flaps.
This bird has working flaps that are very effective.
If you are new to FS4, this plane is very similar to the
Cessna 182 and should make a good alternate as a n FS4 trainer.
You should spend some time with a plane such as the Cessna in FS4
to practice take-offs and landings, and touch and goes.
ABOUT JOYSTICKS:
I like to fly with a ThrustMaster FCS or FCS Pro
joystick, and set the sensitivity to maximum (4-E-B-8-ESC-ESC)
for most planes. You may wish to compensate by lowering the
sensitivity. In my flying using other joysticks, (Suncom TAC 1,
CH Flightstick), I set sensitivity to mid level (about 5 or 6).
I have found that the Thrustmaster flys best at the high sensitivity,
and teaches the arm-chair pilot to fly gently with the stick instead
of wrestling the joystick full-throw. In an informal experiment using
non-computer users, non-flight simulator 'lab rats', whose only
joystick time was using arcades, in using the TAC 1 or Flightstick,
they had a tendency to over-control. None of the 'volunteers' were
able to successfully land *ANY* plane in FS4 with the TAC 1 or
Flightstick, but were successful using the Thrustmaster with maximimum
sensitivity. I hope that explains why I am using max sensitivity.
It was not an attempt to improve performance artificially.
