mk_MIG-21 Fishbed Bis elevator problem

kchang,

Looks like an oversight in the air file. The elevator angle down limit was set too low. I assisted Morton with the flight dynamics, sorry - mea culpa. The top speed is way too low as well, so i made some adjustments to afterburn thrust and parasite drag to get things more in line with 1385 mph, a little more than Mach 2.0.

Now, i don't know how familiar you or others reading this might be with swapping air files. So, overwrite your current *.air file with the one in this zip. Then, extract the aircraft.cfg from the zip, copy the (title=blah blah blah) line from your current cfg to this one, then drop it into your Mig 21 folder and let it overwrite.

Thanks for the files, I used AirEd and found out that elevator down limit was only 0.04 radian (translate roughly to 2.3 degree), I changed it to 0.4 and it worked fine.

But since I'm new to cfs2, I would use your air and cfg, and please have Morton update his package, this is such a high quality model, it looks great and should fly great.

Thanks again.
