Scott (sukhoi26mx) -
Ok, I had a similar problem testing the new Edge 540 file (once), and
then it worked the second time I downloaded it. To avoid all of this, I
zipped up the files and posted those. Hopefully, you have a way to
unzip.
The FAQ is now updated w/ the zip files, and there are two versions now
based on your comments above. Version 1 is the first one you tried;
version 2 takes things further. The link again:

The version 2 files are one step further. I think the changes are still
in the plausible range from the aero side.
A couple things:
- In setting up an aero model the goal is to 'hit all the corners' as
closely as possible, and not one thing alone. So that's a bit of a
balancing act most of the time.
- Make sure you're thinking about these planes where you're testing and
not something like a Yak. A Yak is going to fly differently, and in
some respects better (e.g. in hovering and harrier rollers I think).
Of course, a monowing is going to fly VERY differently from a biplane.
Given your background, I think you have these things in check, but it
can be tricky switching between airplanes.
- I'm assuming you've got the c.g. where you want it, the expos set to
your preference and hooked up using a real Tx w/ top notch gimbals.
BTW - My goal in replying on these forums is to do a little bit of
'product support' to help people out and at the same time populate the
FAQ w/ good questions/answers. And I'm also interested in constructive
feedback (like I've been getting, e.g. yours). But reading some of the
FS One stuff on these forums takes a thick skin sometimes (ugh) ...
