I even bought a book on Swedish Gladiators, but never did a paint because mine flies so weird, a very bumpy ride, so much so that it makes me sick sitting in the cockpit.
Am I the only one with this problem?

Jan Kees, I can't say I've had that problem, it flies very smoothly and with a lot of power and maneuverability, just as the original/real thing.

More details, most of which include stencils, remain to be done on the repaint of N5093 tonight, though the markings were completed last night.

I haven't seen that either Jan. The Gladiator flies smooth as silk for me. I haven't done any long range flights yet, mostly close-in aerobatics so I can replay and watch from the tower view. :salute:
 
Our group of beta testers and some selected individuals receive the pre-production beta models for testing or paint work. I was wondering if Jan Kees maybe still has one of the beta models. I don't keep track of that after a project is finished. ;)
 
I checked, but no beta. I had order #13, so maybe a (too) early version?
I've downloaded again and will do a new install, we'll see..
 
the reinstall was a major improvement.
It still bumps a bit, but it's no longer like driving a corrugated road anymore
