9thHunt Posted December 28, 2021 Posted December 28, 2021 I'm constantly snapping wings off my tomcats by pulling too many Gs in the vertical, which must be something because I've heard Grumman test pilots say in interviews that they were amazed at how many Gs the wings could take. So, I'm starting to wonder if my stick curves are the problem. I had been running a basic +25% pitch curve for a while, zeroing the curve out has helped a little, but it still happens easier then I'd like. Does anyone know of a good curve that works?

They surely did not pull that much as you do. Stop hamfisting and pull gently - no curves are needed.
