JPH1786

All Just bought the Aerosoft Huey X and it's proving a humbling experience! On takeoff, I cannot keep it straight. Even with full left petal, the nose tracks right while the aircraft moves left. It takes a fair amount of forward cyclic and gaining some airspeed to get it to straighten out. Same thing on landing. As I get below 30ish knots, it wants to slowly rotate right. Don't seem to have enough petal authority to keep it tracking straight. Any suggestions? I'm keeping the power around 1.5-2.0 on the torque gauge. Thanks!

I wonder what the difference is between the Warrior and the old Cherokee, because the PA-28-140 I flew pitched down, but they're basically the same aircraft. Strange.

Yeah, I'm pretty frustrated about that. I've been looking forward to the Commander for a while, and it was revealed at the same time as the 340, and before the Baron and the 210. I wish they'd release them in the same order they reveal the next projects. It's disappointing to watch new project after new project jump one that's been on the drawing board for quite a while.

Agreed. A 152 should have a noticeable pitch up, as should any highwing Cessna.

Haven't flown an Archer, but I have flown a Cherokee with manual flaps, the nose definitely did pitch down when you put in flaps. Can't imagine they're that much different.

Looks good, but I really wish you'd put the C114 and the T210 out first!

Proof that Carenado is one of the best developers out there! Taking customer feedback, and directly addressing it! Keep up the fine work!

What about a Cherokee Six? Might be a little close to the Saratoga to be worth making, but I don't think there's another one on the market. Of course, before the switch to all FSX they DID have a Dakota, Archer and Cherokee all for sale, so maybe not.

One thing I found interesting about that article is that it says power-off the 340 drops like a rock. Carenado's certainly does NOT drop like a rock when you pull the power!

My first flight I noticed it lept off the ground, waaaay below VMC. I calculated a VREF of around of about 93-94 knots, and coming down final at that, the darn thing wants to float and float and float. Never flown a twin IRL, but I have 200 hours in singles, even with those, I wouldn't be pulling the throttles to idle where I have to with this one. I'd think those draggy split flaps would make that a very bad idea. Other than that, though, a great looking and great flying aircraft!

I was just going to say, I don't think anybody's done one, have they?

Looks cool. Any word on the Commander?

Looking very much forward to this one! But I agree, a P210N would be awesome! Maybe an expansion pack?

It helps if your default flight is saved with one of the generic FSX aircraft. That might be what PD400 meant when he said the 172, but I found making your default flight with an add-on aircraft doesn't work as well.

I'm still hoping for a Cessna Cardinal, FG or RG! Preferably both, but hey, I'm not picky.
