Phoenix Version 4.0.q update available

Phoenix model flight simulation :: News

[Ade_Law]

physics is still broken

nose down fall, models reach a terminal velocity at a little over 30m/s
in a straight light the avant reaches 36m/s
in a reasonable sized circle it goes 40m/s

and the helicopters still have massive amounts of knife edge lift and require the nose to be pointed at the ground in fff...

and they still arent answering my emails!

Not sure if its just me but since the update my trex 700 on the sim has been crap, has no power and bogs ridiculously, no amount of tuning will fix it ????

For once i have Phoenix running sweet so didn't get sucked in on this update.

Ade, what do you mean nose down fall?
Cheers,

try 2 clicks richer on mid needle

tail slide but nose first

[Dan22]

Ah right I thought he meant the nose kept tipping down in forward flight or something lol.
doh!

its all a bit screwey with speed at the moment.

if you bring up the flight data and see how fast it climbs/falls goes in a straight line. its like its flying in treakle, the models nose has to be way down in fff, and only does 35m/s even in free fall nose down. But then if you do a circle (hurricane) it will happily do 45m/s

I have offered my services to help them fix it, I dont know who if anybody is helping them with the flight physics these days. All I know is that they arent answering my emails.

Helis for me are unuseable, the pitch is 100% just past mid stick and -100% just lower !!

That has to be down to your Tx calibration, I don't have any of the issues reported, I don't think so anyway

agreed with wavey, recalibrate the simulator.

[joe.lel]

Yup, stupid me, changed it from Acro to Heli without recalibrating!! Doh!! All Sorted

Was that a long standing issue or was it as a result of the update altering tx calibration just out of curiosity?
