Apparently something has changed w/ the z-placement of the model on the

Did we lose the stall horn somewhere along the way? It seems to be

YEah, well knowing Austin, I'm going to avoid any flight piloted by
someone trained on his software. I'll live longer that way.

Alex,
Make sure you have the latest base package ... I think some default
properties changed. I don't think this should lead to a segfault, but
apparently it does ...

I've never noticed it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. For
most throttle transients, the combination of prop momentum, throttle

It is gradual. In fact, if you think about it, it has to be. A
propeller that presented the same AoA at every point along the blade
would have to change its degree of twist as the advance ratio changed.
I was just wondering whether the twist happened to correspond to the
AOA-plus-advance so

Almost? What are the remaining caveats? Besides, that is,
no propeller drag at the higher airpseeds and propeller
overspeeds?

The new default properties set up the various views. So the problem is if
running the new code, and none is defined there would be no view to access.
