golly that's SOOOO attractive!
I'd like to request that you add flaps to the CH6 knob when you do that. It might just be me, but I think it floats a little too much when landing. Flaps might help. But it SURE doesn't need any help on takeoff - it practically jumps off the ground.Then it will be time to finish the physics.
I was planning to add flaps on the CH 6 knob for you when I finished the physics but if it floats now wouldn't flaps make that worse instead of better. I've never noticed any floating when landing, has "anyone" else noticed it floating when you land?I'd like to request that you add flaps to the CH6 knob when you do that.

I could easily be wrong about that. But my gut says that the increased drag from large-deflection flaps would make steeper approaches work. Or maybe I'm just starting my approaches too high & too far out. I get nervous at low altitude - even knowing that the reset button's there. I've NEVER claimed to be anything more than a so-so pilot. Trident can already do MUCH more than my (lack of) piloting skills allow. In my mind, your Trident is already a masterpiece. Then again, I'm only a LITTLE prejudiced since it's based on my build of Larry Scarinzi's design.if it floats now wouldn't flaps make that worse instead of better.
Okay cool thanks. Hopefully it will work the way you want. I was just speaking from the idea that flaps add more lift.I could easily be wrong about that.

I'd like the original one please since the baked-on one is almost a perfect match for my real Trident. Will I be able to tweak it later, or will it be baked on, too? You said the stripe wouldn't work, anyway. Just saw your post pop up as I was posting my tale of woe.Let me know because I need to create a blue/white cs for you before I finish the physics and release it.
Okay thanks I'll create your original blue/white cs and yes you'll be able to change it there are no baked-on colors in the new version of Trident everything is now paintable in the CS TGA file.I'd like the original one please since the baked-on one is almost a perfect match for my real Trident.

P.S. I don't know whether I want anyone to like this post or not.
Yes you can have baked-on colors and colors painted in the cs tga file. But the baked-on colors are added in the 3d mesh and is done when the plane is designed so you can't change it unless you have the original 3d file and a 3d program to modify it. So the baked-on colors cannot be changed once they're added.Great. I doubt that I'll want to change it, but it's nice to know that I can. That's another of those things that I don't clearly understand, but have seen mentioned many times. I know that colors can be baked on, but I don't know how... and probably don't have any NEED to know since I don't plan to do it. I'm guessing that the baked-on colors simply over-ride anything you try to do with a custom CS. Not that it really matters, but can some parts be baked on and others be paintable? If my minimal understanding is correct, I think it should be doable. I think you said something like that when you were talking about the cylinder head color several pages ago.
Boy that sucks hopefully you'll be spared anymore problems.Well, the water has drained. Hope it stays down. Things are wet & there are puddles all over, but no real damage since it seemed to be just storm water - unlike last time. We had to call in professionals that time because it left 4" of mud & doo doo. This time most everything was up high enough or in plastic tubs where the floor is higher. And it didn't get high enough to get the expensive stuff. We were sorta prepared after 2015. But we're getting more rain now & through tomorrow. Our neighbors got hit pretty bad - one had 3ft. Another about 2. I'm going to crash. I've been up since about 4am monitoring, moving some stuff, & I went in to work for a couple hours.
