I see what you you mean about the stick , I saw a still photo of one turned all the way to one side , didn't realise it was an adjustment , but now it makes sense ... Some other interesting things I noticed from the videos was more vibration than I expected .... ...a sideways rocking motion , same as the FG model but not as strong (because its so bottom heavy , I'm guessing ) .... and the pilot seemed to be using a lot of left pedal during slow flight .... so maybe the FDM is not too far off ... Im still looking for airfoil parameters , and eventually should be able to get this more accurate Another thing to mention is that it defaults to 2 180 lb people at startup , and I've run across several documents that say the 2 person weight limit is 140 lbs per seat .... But thanks for the input .... its easy to overlook details with things like this :) Oh yes , the ground movement is a Yasim gear issue that I dont quite understand too well but I'll work on that ...
