With the original model I had the aircraft.air and .cfg are the problem.  So i used the aircraft.air and .cfg setting of a ultralight that was working for me.   The power paraglider now flies like an ultralight.

I don't have a clue what all those values are.  I would like to figure out which ones were the problem.  

Can anybody help with the aircraft.air and .cfg settings?

The difficult problem with helping on that one is the fact that it is payware.
You would really have to find someone who has it, since LAGO is no longer in business,  but even though that is the case, it would still not be a good idea to send or post any files from their package as someone still surely holds the legal rights to all the work. ;)

Now if you posted general questions about what parts of the config and air files do, then maybe in that way we can help figure it out, and you would really learn a lot of interesting and useful information for the future. :)

Glad to hear that you at least got it flying now. ;)

I totally agree and understand.  Let do just that ask general questions, this way everybody is covered :)

Referring to my previous posts.  It seems that the problem is a combination of the .air and .cfg files.

1. What parts of the of the .air and .cfg would cause a aircraft to just spin around on a couple of axis upon loading and with out any input?

2. Is there a list of what the different categories in the .cft are supposed to do?

3. Is there a list of what the different categories in the .air are supposed to do?

4. how are the .cfg and .air file related/linked.  So that I can isolate issues between them.

Thanks again for the input everybody...

Grad guy....see your PMs.

Also get a copy of the fs2004 (or FSX) SDKs.  (Software Development Kits).  They are the "instructions" about the internal working of the sims.

best,
