K4bel123 Posted June 10, 2016 Report Posted June 10, 2016 It´s not a real bug but I definitely think that the ground spoiler effectivity on the IXEG 733 is too small compared to the real one. I mean by that, that when a real B737 touches down with a bounce, it will kind of fall back to the ground because the deploying spoilers take away a lot of lift. When I bounce a little with the IXEG 733, it doesn´t "fall" to the runway again. I´m gonna try to take a video for you I hope you might change this in the future. Kind regards, K4bel123 Quote

Kind regards, K4bel123 well, the speed and your flare technique will make a huge difference for the aircraft sitting down nicely on the ground or going back to air and floating. it will be interesting to see that video. it works great to me.

Morten Posted June 11, 2016 Report Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) "think" is not a term we base our flightmodel on, and if we have to, the pilots have the final say! Are you even sure your groundspoilers have deployed - heard the sound? M Edited June 11, 2016 by Morten Quote
K4bel123 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Report Posted June 12, 2016 yes I know that´s why I really like your work so much I think I found my problem. I was similar to the video because I bounced on one wheel only and so the speedbrakes didn´t deploy until touchdown with two wheels. I tried it a few times and it works fine. Thanks for your help!

Good to know - the ground spoiler shutoff valve is connected to the right strut, iirc, so touching down on the left wheels only will not cause the ground spoilers to deploy... Cheers, Jan 2 Quote
