I have a question regarding taking off. I use the (great) F15A of Mirage factory.

It's a great plane. The only I do not really like is taking of with flaps on take off.

The plane just horizontally takes of, the nose stays horizontal. When it should be facing up a bit.

 

Is it possible to change this ?

Flaps work by essentially:

 

1) increasing lift

 

2) forcing the nose down

 

 

 

Are you taking off on auto or manually? Are you retracting the flaps and gear as you pass 180 KIAS?

I happens with both auto and manual, but manual is worse. When the plane reaches aprox 300 km/hr it takes off.

But the plane completely stays horizontal. With all the other planes it just looks better/different.

 

 

 

This is the same runway, same conditions.. only a Strike Eagle.

I only set throttle to full.. no joystick movement what so ever.

Sounds as if the flaps are too effective in the pitch axis. Back up your original F-15A_Data.ini, and try this value under flaps (remember to adjust both sides)

 

 

 

Cmdc=0.005<----replace the original Cmdc value with this one.

Cmdc=0.005 in my data file

 

Thanks for the effort though ! :fan_1:

Try adding 10 until you get the results you desire (Cmdc=0.015, =0.025, etc.)
