SackDestroyer Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Hey guys. I don't have much trouble landing in a specific spot, but after I touch down my Shark starts rolling forward. I press W to brake the wheels but it doesn't seem to help. The only thing that stops this is hitting the emergency engine cutoffs as soon as I touch down, which I know must not be the correct way to land. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!
seikdel Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Reset the trimmer as soon as you're on the ground. If you're hovering or moving forwards, you'll be moving forward once you're on the ground. Trimmed for hover != trimmed for park

Simo Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Trimmed for hover != trimmed for park Not sure this is strictly true - I think attitude in hover may be slightly different to the resting attitude of the aircraft on its wheels.
flanker0ne Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Not sure this is strictly true - I think attitude in hover may be slightly different to the resting attitude of the aircraft on its wheels. Indeed is wrong. The Ka-50 have an almost 5° nose hight in hover. The displacement of the trim in respect to the neutral position depend from the landing technique, from hover or rolling landing; but most important it depend on your trimming "style". From your problem, I can read that you are not the kind of pilot that trim continously every 10/15 Km/h of variation in speed. The point is that I think you land with a trim that is maybe not correct for the glide slope fase, and after the touch down the problem become bigger. If I said something wrong sorry...

MTFDarkEagle Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 On the ground the trim (i.e. the "reset trim") is set so with zero brakes the aircraft will stay stationary. That trim position is very different from hover trim. If you put your self in your backwheels on the ground and trim it to keep it there, you've got a very good starting point on a hover trim setting.
