Gruman Goose

Anyone else experience in the gruman goose during takeoff on land that the nose dips trying to scrape the ground around 40 knots or just me ? :s

Hi Joker and welcome to SimV.
Yes my Goose does the same thing. I think the secret may be to add nose up trim before the takeoff role. Seems to work for me.

Hi, thanks

Yeah just weird because its the only aircraft that does it :S but ill try the trim idea probably will work

And I thought it was just my poor flying skills.

I just pull the stick back when the tail starts up. Might not be the most scientific approach but it works.

Yeah i thought something was off but i tried and if you set the trim right its works must just be the aircrafts center of gravity? :S
