Hi Guys
I know we have been struggling a lot with this bird. Like most of you I have taken to you-tube to get some help and inspiration.
After seeing a few of these tutorials I think the best might be this one.
Among my reason for my choice is that he does not use a cheat like a permanent breake for landing.
My notes for getting an acceptable looking takeoff are:
Pitch trim: +1 (not default of +2, Pilot note suggest neutral or 1 nose down depending on weight) (I have a 0 curve on the pitch axis)
Rudder trim: Neutral
Throttle:
+7->+8 Boost (no more than 8). Throttle was eased in until the spit began to roll. After this it was jabbed into +7-8 boost without hesitation.
Propeller pitch(RPM): 3000 (It seems to be easier to handle with 2800 RPM)
Stick:
Before rolling I had my stick all the way back and tilted a little to to the right to avoid the left wing-drop. All while I danced (jabbed) the rudder.
@60 Mph I moved the slowly forward.
When the aircraft started to move the nose up again I just held the stick and concentrated on keeping the aircraft over the runway until it was stabilized.
Landing notes
The trick is to have stable aircraft on the approach.
Used the curved one.
Keep it between 140 and 120 Mph (do not go. It will make her wobble on the pitch axis).
Be very low when you flare, just like the man say in the video.
If she starts to dance, you can catch her by using the breaks and rudder. Do not use ailerons, they do not have the necessary authority.
