Good morning friends,
for the moment I have an aircraft that makes me some toothache.
She is converted from aCFS2 model
the main problem is that with the elevator trim close to 0° with the autopliot she flies well strait on,
BUT with some nose down
the wing chord is close to the leding edge of the wing and the empty weight cg is about 2/3 behind the leading edge
what parameters can change this?
What I want is that the plane at about 1000meters altitude wth 80% power should fly (with the ap on straight forwards
with the elevator close to 0° but with the nose more up
Best regards
Michael
 
Hi Michael,

a few months ago I had same same issue with the Alphasim Viggen.
It had a nose-down attitide while in cruise flight.

I modified the cruise_lift_scalar in the flight_tuning section of the aircraft.cfg from 1.0 to 0.1 and this solved the issue for me.

Here you can find an overview and explanations of the parameters in the aircraft.cfg.

Aircraft Configuration Files

Although it is for Prepar3D I suppose most parameters work the same way in FS2004


Regards,
 
Good morning Hartwig,
as I said I tested your advice just after leaving the site
Wunderbar,Herrlich!
That was the "Trick 17" I needed.
Plane flies well know.
Thank you again
Best regards

Hallo Hartwig,
looking at your name are you also german or of german origin?
I am german but choose to live at the coast close to the sea at Brittany.
Concerning FS2004, I try to convert rare models for CFS2 to FS2004.
Some times it work very well and the conversion is a fast job.
But most the times it is very very hard. I never understood why microsoft did so different flight
models - and realy most of the panels in CFS2 are perhaps nice for a comic book but have nothing to do with the real planes
Best regards
Yours
Michael
