Flight Dynamics Update November 2018

Post by wells » Fri Nov 02, 2018 3:41 am

Unzip to your B55 folder. The air file is renamed and so will not overwrite any previous files. The aircraft.cfg will be overwritten, unless backed up.

Changes

- Corrected weight and balance for 6 seat configuration
- Corrected engine power output and fuel consumption for a given power setting ( power and fuel consumption were high )
- Corrected parasite drag to give proper cruise speeds for a given power setting
- Changed the zero lift angle of the wing by 1°, based on CFD analysis
- Raised the viewpoint by 1.2 inches
- Added a bunch of extra internal and external views

No, not really. The E55 flight model was developed by a different person. Are there any specific issues with the E55 ?
