I am having problems with the F-5E flaps, After Take off they don't go all the way up.

 

Here's a picture

Check this against what you have. This is stock MF F-5E.

 

[LeftFlap]

CLiftdc=0.20

CDdc=0.035

Cmdc=-0.005

DeltaStallAlpha=-2.00

AreaRatio=1.00

DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_AERODYNAMIC_LOAD

Setting[1].Angle=8.0

Setting[1].DeployValue=144.0

Setting[1].RetractValue=154.3

Setting[2].Angle=20.0

Setting[2].DeployValue=97.74

Setting[2].RetractValue=108.76

MaxDeflection=20.0

MinDeflection=0.0

ControlRate=1.0

ModelNodeName=LeftFlap

ReverseModelOrientation=TRUE

 

[RightFlap]

SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE

CLiftdc=0.20

CDdc=0.035

Cmdc=-0.005

DeltaStallAlpha=-2.00

AreaRatio=1.00

DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_AERODYNAMIC_LOAD

Thats what I have. What should I adjust to make it go up higher.

No offense, but have you tried raising them (by hitting the "V" key)?

Yes I have and after I raise them as far as I can, I can't lower them again (I never messed with the Flaps part of the data file).

The flaps are set to automatic in the data.ini. Perhaps you're not traveling fast enough (over 310 kias) for them to retract. You can always edit the flaps DeploymentMethod from "AutomaticAerodynamicLoad" to 'Manual", in the F-5E_Data.ini

That's strange, just tried the '15E and the flaps work fine.

Yes, models work "all across the board". I, in fact, tested it in WoE.

Convert it to a jpeg format, upload it to our gallery, and then copy and paste the url link to that image on to your reply.

Make sure that the flap entries in your F-15E_Data.ini match these values:

 

[LeftFlap]

SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE

CLiftdc=0.34

CDdc=0.080

Cmdc=0.005

DeltaStallAlpha=-3.75

AreaRatio=1.00

DeploymentMethod=MANUAL

Setting[1].Angle=45.0

Setting[1].DeployValue=120.0

Setting[1].RetractValue=126.0

MaxDeflection=45.0

MinDeflection=0.0

ControlRate=0.3

AnimationID=5

ModelNodeName=Left_Flap

ReverseModelOrientation=FALSE

 

[RightFlap]

SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE

CLiftdc=0.34

CDdc=0.080

Cmdc=0.005

DeltaStallAlpha=-3.75

AreaRatio=1.00

DeploymentMethod=MANUAL

Setting[1].Angle=45.0

Setting[1].DeployValue=120.0

Setting[1].RetractValue=126.0

MaxDeflection=45.0

MinDeflection=0.0

ControlRate=0.3

AnimationID=5

ModelNodeName=Right_Flap
