thanks for the tips.  So you're suggesting that
I leave the J (advance ratio), and coefficients alone,
and just modify the Ixx and Diameter parameters accordingly? 
DONE!  Well, this kind of leads me back to the original problem. 
My plane is supposed to be flying to a set of waypoints, lat, long,
and altitude, and along this flight, should be tracking a.)velocity
and b)altitude.  It fly's to the specified lat, and long, but there is no
response from the aircraft when the actual alt. drops below the setpoint
altitude.  I can see the thrust increase, and with this increase I expect an
increase in lift, but I continues to ever so slowly loose altitude.  It never
shows an increase, and hence never tracks the setpoint.  Now, this could
be a function of my S&C derivatives, so maybe I'll go and revisit them.
 
Earlier, you mentioned controlling the <OUTPUT> portion of the FDM.  Why is
it that the aircraft reacts differently when different options are enabled?  With the
right subset enabled, it fly's pretty well, but without, it's a disaster
 
thanks
