LeCuvier Posted January 29, 2021 Posted January 29, 2021 I can take off (with no flaps) and land (with flaps), but I'm wondering what the correct flaps position is for take-off. No flaps seems wrong, but so does ffull flaps. However I see no way to extend the flaps to, say 20% for take off as I don't find a flaps position indicator. The manual only tells me to extend the flaps for take-off, but how much?

Machalot Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) The flap control lever moves the flaps at a certain rate when held forward or aft, and stops the flaps in their current position when released to center. It is not intended to be held all the way forward or aft when the flaps are stationary. In terms of bindings, if you quickly tap the flap up or flap down binding, I think it sticks the lever forward or aft. If you press and hold, it will return to center when released. I think there is also a flap hold binding to return the lever to center. As for the position of the flaps for takeoff, I was told by another player to match their angle with a fully deflected aileron.

It's how you fly that counts. "An average aircraft with a skilled pilot, will out-perform the superior aircraft with an average pilot."
