10K special - Ultra PatternFlor

38.2k UltraLight  3.3 years ago
Auto Credit Based on PapaKernels's ALMOSTLIGHT CHALLENGE!!!

Ultra PatternFlor

Features

  • canopy paneling
  • wingtip aerodynamic caps
  • slotted high-lift flaps
  • 10k special livery
  • realistic lighting
  • good STOL mechanics
  • hidden working suspension
  • much more realistic thrust to weight than average plane here, yet not too boring

Controls

  • traditional flight controls
  • VTOL for flaps
  • ag7 for landing lights
  • ag8 for engine start and nav lights

Breif Notes

  • This aircraft gets a lot of adverse yaw so be careful, use rudder when using large aileron inputs.
  • The engine does not idle at 0 rpm(unlike most here). Do not be surprised when your prop is at high rpm and no throttle.
  • Flaps produce drag. Do a takeoff roll without them, then at 30 knots kick them to full.


Thank You Message

I thank you all so much for getting me to 10K. I hit 10K just a few days ago, and so I would like to thank a few people in particular.

WiiWiiTheMini and BigBigTheMac - both upvote streaked me
Random Moderator - one of them spotlighted my Pitts S-1S, yet did not upvote so I dont know which one
rexzion - telling me what is bad on my builds
Ergi - good friend
BogdanX - upvoting frequently, will always respond with good help if I ask a direct question
Vincent_ - his plane gave me inspiration for this project
xboxseriesx- always early

And many more... I cant list you all. I guess I dont really have any friends tho except Ergi lol :(

Maybe Upvote?

    It's fine, just approach low, use lots of flaps when landing, you should be landing with full pitch up so just wait for it to slow down. For takeoffs, find the takeoff speed before hand, then do your roll with no flaps, but put the flaps down JUST before rotation.

    @UltraLight I hope you know I have almost 0 experience with STOL landing so if the video sucks cuz I can't land i can't really do anything about it
