Cherokee Warrior PA28-151 (v1)

45 Deemar  4.6 years ago

My first attempt at modelling the PA-28-151 Cherokee Warrior that I learnt to fly in. The fuselage dimensions have been taken from a 3-view in the POH, but the shape is a little off because I’m building this on the iPad and so haven’t been able to tweak the dimensions to the exact values in the XML. The stabilator works, complete with anti-servo tab, but I haven’t quite worked out how to join the gap in the middle. It is pretty docile in handling. Use about half an interval of back trim for takeoff.
