I though the default planes include the new flight model with every new beta ?

11.10 Flight model changes are now opt-in when the .acf is re-saved in 11.10 Plane Maker.

I believe the release notes are referring to aircraft in general.  I know the aircraft that I am responsible for at Laminar are being saved with the 11.10 flight model.  My guess is that all the other artists are doing the same thing.  It wouldn't really make sense for the default aircraft to not have the current flight model.

I have been having problems with the GPS in the default C-172 not following the line and, in fact, dragging the line to where ever it wanted to fly.  Saving in Plane Maker this morning has solved the problem.  

Seems odd, but apparently every aircraft (except yours) needs this treatment.

EDIT - As someone has said somewhere, I loaded my C-172 (both default and the REP version) in Plane Maker, saved, exited and now everything flies as it should.

Thanks ! I have a PPL, so not really looking for a instructor. If I am in your area and I am looking for a instructor I will keep you in mind !

Cheers.......

I realized that. I did not offer my CFI services but rather my own 172 :)

It's possible that Max did not make any changes to the 172 recently and therefore the current version would need to be saved in Planemaker to take advantage of the flight model changes.    My point was that the Laminar artists have, or will be, saving the aircraft in Planemaker at some point and we would select the option to update to the new flighmodel.
