Test flight MKJP-MKJS in the Cub

Recommended Posts

Did a test flight in the Cub on this route and everything went well until after landing :(Had to climb to almost 5500ft to get over some clouds, and got a nice tail wind at 10kt average. Total flight time was 1h1m.I have no rudder pedals so after I had landed and was letting the tail down the Cub weered to the right in a split second and the wing striked the ground :( Sucks that the rudder dont work before tail is all the way down, with autorudder that is. Not sure how the Cub would behave if I unchecked the autorudder in realism.It was such a nice morning flight(set local time to 6:30 for takeoff). Guess I wont be able to do this without some decent rudder control.JT

You can use the differential brakes to control the plane on touchdown. I have a twist-handle joystick and I have the same problems sometimes at landing, but when i tried using the differential brakes it went pretty smoothly,ok, maybe not so smooth, but I didn't crash :)The default keys for the brakes is F11 and F12 I think.Klas
