Resizeable wheels make aircraft skid and jump.

45 DojoFS  4.2 years ago

I've just been designing planes with fixed gear and cars, and for them I used resizeable wheels as the landing gear, but on take off and landing, the resizeable wheels make the plane skid on the runway, sometimes on take off, the plane stalls, and when on the ground, the wheels make aircraft and cars bounce. I would appreciate it if someone could please tell me a fix, thank you.

    @Griffon1Crosswind And there's another thing about those wheels, whenever I want to slow down or stop when I'm on the ground, I apply the brakes, but unlike other types of landing gear which use gentle braking, the brakes on the resizeable wheels are jammed on, causing the aircraft to tip forward violently and then the propeller gets destroyed.

    Ive experienced the same issue, but I am pretty new to resizable wheel gear and don't know a solution, so all I can suggest is land gently.
