Hey, so Ive been trying to make airliners and other planes, and have always wanted to incorporate flaps that worked and were useful, not just aesthetic. Does anyone know how to position the COM,COL, whatever else I would need to do so that they become functional? The best I've gotten is flaps that move the right way, but have the opposite effect on lift. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Yeah, on my yet-to-be-uploaded-787X it just seemed to act like airbrakes, the flaps... well extra airbrakes i guess
Las mecánicas del juego no admiten estos. Los flaps son dispositivos hipersustentadores, osea que aumentan la sustentacion, de hecho asi funciona todos los alerones y timones, pero el juego toma el movimiento de estos como un giro, no como mayor sustentacion
Can someone make a VTOL wing that rotates the control surface 90 degrees for missile bay doors?
look at my plane here for help
Or just look at one of my planes a perfect example
Ya that is a weird thing I've noticed @MasterLobster
Use fuselage pieces and put separate fuselage wings inside, it will actually work, instead of only making your plane pitch down, my Super Etendard could be an example of that working if you were to just put some fuselage wings in there.
@Aviation but my flaps are working well
@Aviation you simply can't simulate it here. I guess the airliner dudes can help you. @BaconAircraft
What I have been trying to use are flaps @Alienbeef0421, and like how 747s extend flaps on landing, whenever I do that with my airliners, they just pitch down. I'll post an unlisted plane and link you it so you can see what I mean
@Aviation look at my planes. Did you actually mean slats?
@Aviation Have you tried to invert them?, I havent seen that happeniing
Yeah I've used a separate structural wing (like in my dive bomber), but it had no effect on lift, whatever. Also, when putting control surface flaps down, the plane would pitch down @Alienbeef0421
Or XML and input TRIM @Alienbeef0421
You must be using a separate wing for a flap.
For a simpler version,
Try XMLing a control surface.
Here's what you'll edit:
input=VTOL
maxDeflectionDegree=40
Note: the left wing must be inverted
What do you mean by opposite effect on lift?
