No Stall AOA for Aerosoft PBY Catalina.

aal763 · Post by **aal763** »

Hey guys,
First of all I'd like to say that this is a wonderful product. I was really hoping to use this product with the Aerosoft Catalina, as it doesn't have any touchdown noises or anything. The sounds are great and all, but I noticed that the Catalina doesn't have a stall AOA in the Accufeel settings. Any ideas on where I might find this, or if what anybody else uses?

Best Regards,
Rob

I don't follow. Do you mean the slider is there but you cannot operate it, only in the Catalina?

No the slider is there. However, the stall AOA is set to None. I was just wondering how the program comes up with these? Is it from the aircraft.cfg? Anyways, I was wondering as to what I should set it at to make it the most realistic?

Best Regards,
Robert

It looks to the aircraft.cfg info, and if it finds a value that it thinks is wrong, then it estimates it, which is why I am wondering how it's set to 0.

I would try setting it to 15 deg AoA and do some stalls, then adjust.

I flew the Cat extensively in A/F beta... no problems... just set the AOA to 14-16 deg and it should work fine. I think from memory mine is at 14.

I've noticed some options are disabled when running Accu-Sim aircraft. AoA being one of them. I had this on the Spit last night. I don't know if its the same issue.

Remember Accu-Feel is a hint of a full accu-sim package. The spitfire already has this and its finely tuned to the Spitfire MkI so its not required for accu-feel

I remember that Aerosoft announced some unorthodox settings to the various parameters to work-around some specific behavior of this special flying boat. May be this helps explain?

Thanks for that Lewis. So do you mean that when sliders are already off in AccuFeel V2 whilst using a Accu-Sim aircraft that is normal as Accu-Feel has detected Accu-Sim and realises that those effects are not required and don't need to be tampered with. So sliders that are activated can be used and adjusted as normal like with any other non Accu-Sim aircraft?

I don't usually use Accu-Feel with Accu-Sim because as you say its a hint of Accu-Sim but reading that the two can be used together seems quite interesting and i might start to use them both.
