Simulators are awesome for fun, for learning, and practice. A sim will help teach you orientation, flying towards and away from you and help learn landing and take off. I highly recommend a sim. If you are even half serious about learning and flying definitely get a sim. Having said that, a...

I'm reading all this stuff on RF7, plus talked to a tech, re something else, but asked about RF7 and just can't figure out why I should pay anything for it. So far to me, just sounds like a version update, like 6 to 6.5. I love Real Flight but darn if I can figure why I should shell out $50...

Here is a bigger Daddy O view shot, this should help, if not let me know. Thanks so much for the interest!

O.K. (here goes my third try to post this stuff). Basic model specs are as follows; Airframe Type Sport Control Layout 4 Channel R/E/A/T Airframe Construction Balsa Wing Span (in.) 52.5 Wing Area (sq. in.) 485 Length (in.) 42 Flying Weight (oz.) 36 Loading (oz. / sq. ft.) 10.7 Wing...

If "3 view" means 3d, no I don't. A Google image search brings up all I have access to, try this link: https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&aq=f&oq=daddy%20o&rlz=1T4GUEA_en___US426&q=daddy+o+525&biw=1323&bih=711&sei=b-rET8mYLaPOsgL_-tHaCQ&tbm=isch thx

Model aircraft request This is my first request, hoping I do it correctly. I would love to see a version of the Stevens Aero model Daddy O 525. I will be building this great model and would love to fly it on the sim. Pretty sure others would enjoy as it is a cool airplane. Here is a...

model request Hope this is the correct place to do this. I would love to have a model of Easy Star with flattened wings and Ailerons. I've done this to one of my Easy Stars (plus motor upgrade) and would love to fly it on the G 4 sim. In real life it is a great and fun plane to fly.

I would love to see the easy star with a flat wing and ailerons. Several folks have made such a mod and it really is a whole new airplane. If an ameteur designer could do same I would love to get pointed in that direction. thx

thx, not quite the same as the Pitts S 2s but works fine (I thought it was a little goosey until I discovered I had the dual rates on :) )

Has anyone designed an electric version of the Pitts? Would anyone care to ---please? I am not a designer at all, I tried to put an electric engine in the standard Pitt and couldn't even take off!

Thx, that did it! :)

OPJOSE, good reply and very good point. I've noticed with some planes no matter how hard i land they survive, ...doesn't seem correct. But here is my BIG question: several people have talked of, mostly improving strength (i like your decreasing strength approach) but look as I may at the edit...

Thanks guys, all good input. It really is the only ship I have trouble with and I think I've got it now. Never force it down, never drop it, just kiss the ground and she works great. I do really love that airplane, one of my favorites!

I can successfully land virtually every fixed wing model in the G4 except the P-38. It breaks in half almost 75% of the time on landing no matter how gentle I try to land it. Is this a program defect, plane defect or me/pilot defect? :confused: Comments/suggestions very welcome! :o
