Angle of Takeoff

[+Veltro2k 6,351]

What needs tweeking in the Data ini  to lower take off pitch so no tail strike on takeoff ?

[Spinners 15,986]

I can't remember which aircraft I tweaked but I adjusted the CGPosition and got rid of tail strike. Worth a look.

it needs to fix Control Surfaces Flaps section ControlRate=0.2 lower nose =0.3 higher nose. for example. not this data. needs to try

Cmdc=0.0025

Try set to 0 or increase ... depends on results .

Cm= '+ ' <--- nose up

Cm= ' - ' <--- nose down

For example, this helicopter flap device for vertical take off, additionally downing nose :

Add a "skid" entries on tail to avoid any damage.

[Wrench 9,849]

added the skid first, and removed the hit box from the tail section.

just so everyone knows, the statements listed above were taken right from the 3W Hawkeye, upon with the Greyhound is based
