Aileron Slow Stick - symetrical wing

[FMJnaX]

So here is the first working version of my updated Slow Stick. Special thanks to ggunners for the help. I've got to re-paint the model and tweak a few more settings in the .PAR, but this is a nice working version. I was shooting for a stock GWS300C motor, but in real life, found that to be a challenge with this model. We'll assume it to be a low end brushless or high end brushed. In real life, this model makes a [sloppy] roll in about 1.8 seconds, but has more ROG power. These are the things I will tweak later.

So, without further waiting, here's the file. Let me know what you guys think! It's my first ever FMS conversion/update/creation/etc.

Cool plane dude!

Noticed a bit forward CG on the plane. Since you're setting this one up with a zero dihedral and no wash out, you'll probably want to put the CG about 0.02 instead of 0.09 and get rid of the +1 degree AofA for the wings and -1 degree AofA for the elevator. i.e. set the plane up neutral all the way around. With a neutral set-up, the rudder will just skid the plane around. Also, when setting up a symmetrical wing, you may want to borrow the POLAR from the SU-26 as that's a neutral sym wing too. Try reducing the MOTOR moment to 0.00002 and see if that helps with the left turn tendancies.

Just a coupla' ideas to play with.

Have a blast!

Thanks for the comments ggunners! I'll play with them for sure. I already changed the motor to try and help it, but since I keep messing with it, it's hard to get a final value.

If I recall, I didn't mess with any of the POLAR's because I didn't know what each was for. I'll borrow the SU's and see how it changes.

Thanks again!
