3D!!!!
 

I want to learn how to hang the planes on the prop, but first i wanna do it on the sim. What control inputs have to be made to carry the manuver out???

RE: 3D!!!!
 

All 4. First you have to get the plane pointed up. Then you have to modulate the throttle so it stops going up and make sure it doesn't come down. Then you have to work the elevator and rudder to keep the tail underneath the engine. Once you get the tail in the "sweet spot" it sorta locks in. You can either let the plane torque itself around or use opposite (right) aileron to keep the top pointed at you (a good thing when you're just learning).

GOod luck!

If you have one of the sims that allow you to shift CG, set it to the back of the envelope.

Increase the control throws on all surfaces (25% on ailerons, 35% on elevator and 45% on rudder), then use a much larger than normal engine. (As was said, move the CG back.)

wow for some reason every time i try it on the sim it stall and crashes, damm it looks hard and its even harder to do, and im just on a sim! lol Ok know once you got it hangin on teh nose how do you get it out of there??? Every time i give it full throttle and give it up elevator it stalls and crashes like 2 feet of the ground. lol

Use an acrobatic airplane, like the sukhoi or the extra. You cant just hover with any airplane. Keep trying, and you'll teach yourself. Its pretty hard tho...

ok thanks

If you are feeling really bold, you may want to step up to the alpha trainer. Just watch out!

RE: 3D!!!!
 

Which Sukhoi or Extra do you have? Some of them perform well but don't quite measure up in 3D maneuvers.

Lightfoot, he doesn't have either.

GTac01, Seeing as how you only learned that this sport existed a month ago, please refrain from giving advice about things which you know nothing about.
