My video review of the T-6 Texan
Re: My video review of the T-6 Texan
Very informative. Thank you.
I note that in the take off roll that she comes off at quite a slow speed? Never knew such a thing was possible!?

Re: My video review of the T-6 Texan
That looks like a very thorough review Rich. (Actually, it's already had a bit of a plug on the forums here, just in case you missed it! )
Though I haven't had time to watch the whole video, following Martin's comment I have just watched the take-off section. That sudden pitch up at ~50 KIAS does seem a bit alarming. (Normally I'd be looking for the tail to come up at around 40-45 KIAS, with a bit of aft stick pressure to unstick the mains at around 70-80 KIAS.). Unless you were pulling back on the stick throughout the take off roll, it makes me wonder if you've run an Accu-Sim update since installing the T-6. Amongst other things, this addressed rather excessive pitch trim authority of the original product, which might help explain this behaviour.
Apologies if I've missed mention of this elsewhere in your vid. I did see that you'd set the pitch trim correctly earlier on though.
Cheers,
Nick
