The first Concorde flight

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-1365 Benjamin:
The PM2 concorde works fine on my computer....but I'm not a great fan. I like the old EHM conc, so I use that. My question to any of you who may know is:

Why do I have so much trouble taking off and landing because of the front sinking right into the ground, causeing the nose to hit the runway and mess up my takeoff. Is there something I can change in the CFG?? Maybe it is the suspension-LOL?

Thanks in advance.:)

EHM-1001 Robert:
Well, I do not really understnad your problem. If your Concorde is only visually sink in the ground, then you can modify it with CFG. If you think the plane have a "heavy nose" then you coulc alter the flight dynamics.

For PM2 Concorde, I advise to search for a Flight Dynamics of Pedro Oliveira. V2.7 is the latest. I have no problem flying with this dynamics, and I want to release its slightly modified version that fits to the new EuroBusiness flights.

EHM-1365 Benjamin:
Hi Robert, I dont quite know whether it is a visual problem or heavy nose, dont know how I would find out. Is there a line in the CFG to see?

Thanks for your reply.

EHM-1001 Robert:
Hmmm...I thought if you only see that your Concorde looks like sinking above the ground, than you should alter these lines for PM2 Concorde in the CFG file:

static_pitch= 1.0200
static_cg_height= 15.8

These constants define the vertical position of the visual model, when standing on the ground. It may vary for other versions of Concorde though.

EHM-1365 Benjamin:
Robert,

You are a superstar. My problem is fixed. Many apologies for not being able to describe the problem well enough, but it is fixed now, thanks to you.

Kindest regards
