How to land.....a guide.
Loose height way before the run way, and fly FLAT.....ie it LOOKS like your nose is down, but thats cos the tail fin flying too.......
come in TOO slow and put power back on.......try to not come in too fast, cos to bleed speed is hard, but to get it back is easy with your engine.
I drop to combat flaps quite early to give me stability, and then to take off flaps and then landing flaps just as I touch down...and you land FLAT...that means it feels like your propellor tips are just gonna touch ground....look at the artificial horizon on your dash board.....get the lines lined up and see how ya look....
then fly along the ground and DONT lean too much or it will drop a wing....
as speed drops and the tail falls to the floor, pull gently BACK to keep the wheel down (we are now going slow enough that you have no lift and cant "hop" ....and to slow faster, gently tap the B (brake button) but dont hold it down cos you'll stick your nose in....
So.....in low and slow and gain speed to make it to the runway....
fly along and let her fall onto the runway....flat...
let the tail wheel drop on her own........and once its down properly, gently pull back.....
dab at the brakes....
If you come in HOT....FAST.......lean the plane one way and twist the rudder the other....make her "slip" through the air sideways........do that a lot, keep changing directions.....you'll bleed speed.....
barrel rolls also loose speed......
but they tend to loose wings on the floor too
Good luck pilot
S!
PS look in oyur control settings and set a Quick Record Track button...
USE IT....
then watch the track afterwards...go EXTERNAL and use [ ] button to slow it down, and P to pause....
see where you are going wrong.....and look at the beauty of the FB AEP flight model![]()
