cosnowboarder_777 21 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 First off, fantastic job on the aircraft. Was definitely worth the wait. One thing I noticed that might need a little adjusting is the nose wheel steering. No matter what the speed, the wheel will fully deflect in either direction. Also, it does not disengage after takeoff. Also, it would be great to get a popup option for the electronic checklist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 The deflection angle of the wheel will not change with speed, only the understeer (less turn, more sliding) will increase. Why would it disengage after takeoff? A popup for Dave is under consideration but we really want to address some more severe issues first before we move on to that.

Sorry disengage was the wrong word. What I was referring to is the safety feature most aircraft have that once the weight is off the wheels, the nose wheel physically locks in place and cannot be physically turned in flight.

Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 OK. I didn't know that. Since I have to look into the NWS stuff anyway, I will lock it at the center position as soon it leaves the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
