A little progress so far.

Lukasz has helped out with the flightmodel.

From Lukasz.

What was changed so far:

- geometry of: fuselage, wings, tail surfaces, landing gear, gear fairings, wing struts

- engine-propeller fine tuning and geometry

- control surfaces' sizes, angles of deflection, phase-outs, flaps Cl adjustments

- trim settings

- nosewheel steering values

- center of gravity, weights, fuel tanks locations and capacity, custom radii of gyration

- airfoils (fine tuning)

Work still to do:

- correct fuel flows (and thus range) on different power settings and altitudes

- small geometry tweaks to achieve the highest possible accuracy in airspeeds at different power settings

Results so far:

- greater flight envelope accuracy with regards to POH performance values (speeds, runway use, maneuverability etc.)

- more "believable" aircraft handling

- more "entertaining" stalls :)

As for the 3D work, just some minor ajustments on the 3D model have to be fixed up and that should be it!

See you all soon!

;)

Good news. Your 152 is one of the best add-ons for X-Plane right now.
