Square empty eggs..............


Your rudder doesn't show the slip ?  ???.....I know if you take your images in replay mode that happens, but if you shoot your screenshots during the actual flight, it will show control surface deflections, or if you turn on video mode, they will show when you replay the vid  8)...........I have done it all three ways ......v. impressive to see full rudder and ailerons inputs being used to indicate a true slip  ;).......although your shots do show a good amount of slip coming through the barn  ;D   ;D

Hey thanks for all of your replys ;D

Rifleman unfortunantly i took all of the screen shots from a replay :-[ But here are two shots taken when pausing the simulation.

Here...

This angle shows the deflections better ;)

By the way the rudder on the Spirit of St. Louis, because it takes up almost the whole vertical stab, it is very effective. So effective that i managed to spin the plane 180 right before touchdown at an airport and landed it backwards.... ::)

Cya,

I tried doing that in an F4U Corsair. I found out that there are crash effects in FS2004.  ;) Going through a barn at 400km/h is not recomended.
