Just won't TAKE OFF

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

Ok here is a little question for you. I'm parked up at my local strip "Compton Abbas". Check everything is OK Fuel etc etc. Start the 206 up, taxi down to end of strip. and off we go, reach the correct speed, but she just wont lift off the ground, I have to change the plane and then go back into the 206 and everything seems OK. Now I have had this on other Aircraft as well what causes this problem. To me it feels like shes to heavy .

Make sure the autopilot is off. Sometimes if you save a flight as the default with the AP on, it can remain stuck in the On mode even if it seems to be off. Try turning it on and off again.

 

Also make sure the yoke/joystick is properly calibrated, that you haven't accidentally assigned a button or axis to elevator trim and that it is in fact trimmed correctly for take off.
