Flaps keep breaking???

Post by cessna lover »

have tried flying twice now. and doing a solo airshow demonstration I get about 2 high speed passes and then the flaps break and only the left flap is coming down. it did this yesterday and I was able to land it. but it did it again today and I could not land it. why are my flaps breaking if they are not down. I have the Accu-Sim Update 1_17_2017 DOWNLOAD ***NEW*** update installed for all my planes as well. I did an airshow with the P-40 and did not have a problem at all. just when I was starting to love the mustang now she's giving me trouble. :evil: GRRR

Hi.
Are you absolutly sure your flaps where fully up before your run , I.E. did you have one notch flaps for take off , if so then you may have damaged them , if they did not get retracted before going over the flap speed , as it is impossible to damage them when fully retracted at high speed.

yes sir I am sure thy where up. because before I even start the plane I make sure the controls work and my flaps are up. I guess I will have to double check them from now on.

It does sound like you have your flaps overspeeding indeed, double check they are up for sure.

thanks,
