Oh my. Did you see how much throw he put into that plane. Jeez.
Just when you think you are getting better at something ... then you see that.
AFP is incredible. No reason to risk my plane anymore!

This is Maarten's setup for the Extra in the video :
Throws: all 60° except rudder= 50°
CG: +3.0 cm
eng: 12 kw, torque: 40%
prop: 31x10.6 max rpm= 8200
gross weight= 15900g
Enjoy !

Question: There were three CG numbers. Which one is +3 cm? Also the units were in english units. Must be the English version. Also I wonder where he shaved off the weight. I just left the CG alone and took two lbs off the engine. I must say this is spoiling me having that much control over the models. They hover at 1/4 throttle. Unreal.
Also I made the rudder 60 percent. Tight knife edge loops for sure! Plus it's fun to harrier on your side.

As for the weight, just reduce the fuse weight by 1 kg.
Enjoy !

It's Aeroflypro. www.aeroflypro.com
Do you guys remember that guy that said he does not use a sim any longer or AFP because it was too easy as compared to real flying?
I wonder if he has seen that video yet.

Wow!
That i ssome of the best flying I have ever seen ... if he can do that with a real plane I'd sure love to see it.
Pucker factor is always a bit higher with the real thing
Does AFP have adjustabel wind settings?

How many times a day does everyone watch this video? I'm down to only about 8 times. I kinda like the song too. I've gotten pretty used to the mix of the video and the song now.

Well that settled it. Never realized how "toyish" and unrealistic G2 looks by comparison. Chalk up one more convert! How's this program run FPS wise compared to g2?
