Nick Somerville Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 That’s interesting reading Jon and would explain why my lighter P47 ballons up a little when activating half flap and then settles to a level flight as the speed drops off. On transition to full flap it just maintains its pitch. On all three of my warbirds the flaps are on a 2-3 second servo slow setting and the elevator trim compensation on the Flight Mode for the new FW is equally set so it’s synchronised.

J D 8 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Half flap increases lift as well as adding some drag so you get a bit of ballooning. Full down just increases drag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
