Default RE: I Totally Just Figured It Out!!

Doesn't matter. Left to right. Right to left.

Try it on your sim.

If your looking at the TOP of the plane--then you fly the wing on top. Push the rudder stick to push the top wing back and it keeps the nose up.

If your looking at the BOTTOM of the plane--then you fly the bottom wing. Push the rudder stick to move the bottom wing forward.

If your looking at the top wing--Top wing back
If your looking at the bottom wing--Bottom wing forward


When your doing low n slow rollers on the deck, it's very easy to get confused with the rudder and crash the plane. There is no room for error when the wingtips are 12" off the deck. You put in the right rudder corrections, or the plane is dead.

So, you break the plane up into top and bottom.

When you see the top of the plane--then you fly the TOP wing panel. Your looking at the TOP of the TOP wing . Move your rudder stick to bring that top wing to the back of the plane. Top wing back. This keeps the nose up.

When you see the bottom of the plane--then you fly the BOTTOM wing panel. Your looking at the BOTTOM of the BOTTOM wing. Fly the bottom wing. Move your rudder stick so that it causes the bottom wing to move forward. Moving the bottom wing forward keeps the nose up. Push the rudder stick "forward" to move the bottom wing forward. Whichever way the wing is moving--you need to push it forward to keep the nose up. So--you push the rudder stick in that direction.
