Real Model - Looking for real model representation

[dave_d]

I have recently discovered FMS and I am really impressed. It's been only a couple of years since I stoped flying, and I am now looking to start again. I'm considering geting into 3D Electric flight and FMS is the ideal training ground.

Scanning the forum, I have found lots of models to download, but so far I'm not convinced that any of the planes that I have found actually fly like they should.

Can anyone recomend a model simulation that actually flys like the real thing.

I've been told by owner's of the 3D Foamy Tiburon Bipe on my website that it flys very close to the real thing. That said however, 3D flyers are very sensitive to total control throw and CG location. When the CG is farther back, they'll hover better and generally fly on the prop better but may suffer a bit in regular flight. Moving the CG forward provides a more typical RC airplane flying experience. The CG in this FMS model is a compromise, just as you'd set one up in real life.

Thanks for the reply. Your model is fun to fly, and it is very close to what I'm looking for... personally I thing the elevator response is a little too quick. I may however be wrong as I have only flown conventional aircraft and heli's.

Use the paredit program and adjust it until it's right. Check with other owners and tweak the performance. If you get a .par file other owners say is better, please share it with us.

Electric motor planes are pretty cool. i have 3, from .
My favorite is the "Vortex Extreme"

This one flies pretty close to the real thing.

I made a bunch of models for their company, if you want to download, and give them a try,
go to

I've pounded the real one into the ground several times, and it still flyies pretty good. they're worth the $150.00
