FS2004 Morane Saulnier 500 and 505. A frequent visitor to many airshows, the Morane-Saulnier 505 (actually a radial-engined French-built derivative of the well-known Fieseler Storch) mostly impresses the crowds not with its speed but with its slowness! In a reasonable headwind, it can actually fly backwards related to the ground or touchdown with virtually no ground roll. Two models made completely in Gmax with dynamic shine, reflective textures, full suspension, custom 2D panel, working VC and includes eight liveries. By Guy Hulin.[/SIZE]

Check the video below ..... (sorry for the sound .. wrong recording setting :) )

If you suffer the same phenomena .... try to apply this solution (modification of the contact points in aircraft.cfg)
Methink this come from the suspension modelling

Use these ones:

[contact_points]
static_pitch = 13
static_cg_height = 5
max_number_of_points = 9
point.0 = 1, -19.4451, 0, -1.859, 1500, 0, 0.5, 45, 0.5, 2.5, 0.6, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
point.1 = 1, 2.4969, -5.0798, -7, 3500, 1, 0.8, 0, 0.6, 2.5, 0.29, 5, 5, 2, 0, 0
point.2 = 1, 2.4969, 5.0798, -7, 3500, 2, 0.8, 0, 0.6, 2.5, 0.29, 5, 5, 3, 0, 0
point.3 = 2.00, 0.00, -24.00, 4.00, 308.47, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 5.00
point.4 = 2.00, 0.00, 24.00, 4.00, 308.47, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 5.00
point.5 = 2, -24.0384, 0, 1.0908, 916.56, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 9, 0, 0
point.6 = 2, 7.4498, 0, -2.8798, 1274.43, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 0, 0
point.7 = 2.00, 0.00, -24.00, 4.00, 308.47, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 7.00
point.8 = 2, -20.9719, 0, 7.3915, 30.03, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 8, 0, 0
gear_system_type=1

You can also reduce the braking force (for avoid plane going upside down when braking)

[brakes]
toe_brakes_scale=0.4
parking_brake=1

Hope it's help
 
Thank you, claudius!! :ernae:

I've always really liked this aircraft for low and slow fun. The tweak you provided really made the tail-high take-offs and landings much better appearing (eliminated that sinking feeling :icon_lol:) and yet maintained enough flex on rough ground to remain realistic.

Good job!!
 
Claudius

Thanks for the tweaks...and thanks for reminding me about this plane. Another radial added to my collection!!!!

Thanks for the mods Claudius

There's also another panel available for those that want it.
