Fowler flaps

Postby ajver » Fri Aug 22, 2003 3:29 pm

I have built an aircraft with fowler flaps (FSDS.2) and have animated the flaps with specific increments aft and down.  However, in FS2002, the aft increment is different from my values.  Can somebody help please ?

The animation is correct in the FSDS screen.

Just an non brainer reply...did you transfer your values to the aircraft.cfg file..?
Pilots are the best computers we can put aboard aircraft, and the only ones that can be massproduced with unskilled labor..

Try copying the .cfg file and use FSEdit to open that file. Under the flaps tab you can set the incriments. Beware however that FSEdit has a nasty habit of messing up othr 'unseen' things in the dynamics, hence the copy.

If it all works ok with no side-effects, the go ahead and delete your backup.
