yep, I hit them from the side or rear, and up they go....

there's a mod for the Jug to slow down the trim. I was using it before I dropped from the Jug to fly the Corsair.

excellent videos! I've learned quite a bit. looking forward towards your Corsair campaign.

went 3 for 3. launch and trap. woot! just gotta watch out for that engine torque. keep her steady.

good point. I'm editing my Carrier mission to now have the wind at +20kts. I had it at 10kts, but I have the Essex moving at 27kts. on the first 3 attempts, all were bolter's. The 4th I managed to snag a wire and got a C rating. I'll give it a whirl with the increased wind.

indeed, it does help a little bit.

hopefully so too!

awesome, what a great find!

Here's what I'm using: Pitch - curve 22, y saturation 80, deadzone 3 Roll - curve 22, y saturation 80, deadzone 3 Rudder - curve 30, y saturation 80, deadzone 3 This is working good for my setup, (rig specs in my sig). Using a WH stick with a VPC WarBRD base and no stick extension. YMMV.

too bad there's no way to temporarily use the P-47's sound for the Corsair....

Started out with 2 free flights, to help with adjusting the controls. Then went through 2 take off and landing cycles. Managed the engine much like I did in the P-47. Made sure to get off the max RPM a couple min into the flight. Watched the cylinder head temps, along with the oil, etc. Played a little bit with the cooler and cowl settings. Really didn't have any issues with the ground handling. Made sure to lock the tail gear on the take off roll. For the moment, I'm using for the pitch a 30 degree curve and 5 deadzone. Roll is 15 degrees and 5 deadzone, and Yaw is 24 degrees and 5 deadzone. I'll fine tune them further. I've got a 3 day weekend. As noted by others, I think the sound is the soft spot. Would expect a bit more, like the P-47's R2800. Roar! Overtime she'll improve. What was cool. I put in her in a steep dive and really picked up some speed. I could hear the whistle!!!

The Jug was doing this as well when it was initially released. I remember keeping the fuel load under 60%, or something like that. Tamed her out a bit. But then further updates came out. In a little while, I'll jump in the Corsair. I've been flying the P-47 for the last few weeks, so I'll have some sort of reference (for the R2800). She's fresh out, so I have my expectations set accordingly. All will come together.

It notes this module is early access yep, it's there. mods/aircraft/F4U-1D/Doc

mine too! you know what I'll be flying for a while with... woot!

my bad I missed the sale. but the next time it comes around, I'll definitely buy! Keep it going slughead!
