a few responses i've received directly:
============== Don't know about the stemme in particular, but it is quite common for flap positions to affect aileron travel. This happens in my ASW27. The flaps and ailerons move together, so if the flaps are in "down" position, both ailerons are "down." Then the "up" aileron may not be able to move to its full upward position when the stick goes all the way in one direction. For this reason in the ASW27, when you move the flaps to landing position, the ailerons cease to follow along and instead move up to zero degrees, in order to give full aileron authority. I would not be surprised if the programmers of x plane did not include this subtlety of the flap-aileron mixer system. =============== I own an S10 VT and would like to know details about how to get it into the x-plane simulator. Shall be a great way of practicing while at home. By the way, have a look at the Condor Flight Simulator. For soaring training and competition, there is nothing similar. =============== In real life, I use +10 degrees for landing. This gives adequate aileron response for landing. I do not know the technical data for the mixing of the ailerons and flaps but they will reduce roll rate as you increase the flap position toward LAND (+16 degrees). I sometimes use full flaps for landing "short" with light wind or wind down the runway. My initial advice to a new Stemme pilot is to use +10 degrees flaps for landing. =============== Yes you do have aileron control with full landing flaps. It will seem to be a little restrictive and it does fly with a slower roll rate with full flaps but they do continue to control at a slower roll rate. |
