Also, try setting it to ''Run as Administrator'' from the same properties box.

[quote]ORIGINAL: NCBrit I've tried FS One and AFPD on Windows 7 and have had good luck with both. On my laptop they both run without issue, however on my desktop I had to get a new graphics driver for AFPD to run. Haven't tried FS One on it yet. Has anyone tried other sims on Windows 7? What was your experience? [/quote] I just built a new PC. QUAD CORE Intel 2.83GHZ 1TB HD 8GB RAM 1GB Nvidea GeForce 9400GT Card Running Win 7 64 bit RC I figured Win 7 is going to be out in the Fall so I downloaded the RC and installed it. (cool O.S) been using it for 3 days now. But I can not get FS One to run on it. It took a few attempts to get it to install. It blue screened a couple times during install. but it installed ok eventually. Got the USer Account control set to Minumum, which allowed me to install the 1.0.9 patch, then the heli patch, and then the 1.1 patch but it will not run. I get a Black box that flashes on my screen and then disappears. I ran the program a number of times while pressing print screen to see what was written in the box and i eventually got it "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the applications support team for more information." I assume this error is TACH-CON controller related. I know in Win XP it would terminate if the controller was not plugged in, but my controller is plugged in. SO I am wondering if maybe the controlller was detected wrong? or if i need to install the controller in a specific way? or maybe this error is not controller related at all. any suggestions. I'd love to get FS one running on this box. and I kinda like Win 7 so far, so I don;t think I am going to downgrade it to XP. If anyone has had a similar problem and solved it, please let me know. or if anyone has win 7 experience I'd love to hear from you. thanks

RE: Seagull's
[quote]ORIGINAL: Yakflyer Dude, that's terrible! At least you were able to get 6 knee knocking flights of enjoyment. Still it is terrible that it crashed. I guess I should have mentioned it early, but when I started this model and the fact I was/am going for all out speed, flutter was an item I addressed while building. After making sure the hinges were firmly in place with minimal gapping, I went a step further and added some monokote over the hinged area to help keep that issue from being a problem. Maybe you might use that tip on your next model. But there it is. Some have even swapped to pinned hings and epoxy for that extra holding power. BTW, watch Ebay regularly for the DA. I got mine, with shipping for under $100. There are plenty of good deals on ebay. I flew my DA at Hodges Hobbies this past Saturday. I almost left with another twin engine plane. Not sure were you live, but there is a Top Flight 310, fully completed ARF, with no flight pack or engines with ROBART RETRACTS alread installed along with a complete nav light kit for $400. That version used the fiberglass one piece body. It was 'VERY'' attractive. My first dual engine was the Cider Hobbies dual ugly stick. You can find them pretty inexpensive. That would do a flat spin and hold/gain altitude! It was crazy watching that but fun to fly! Good Luck on your next project! [/quote] WEll I ordered another D.A. today. the airframe is cheap enough so I will try again. I will go to epoxy'd pined hinges this time as per your suggestion. have used CA hinges in all my models thus far, but maybe on this one pined hinges are the way to go. When you do the monokote on the hinge gap.. do you do it on the bottom of the wing or the top? or both? any other tips to help reduce this on DA #2? also,, if there are any other concerns you think I should change.. now is the time, as I will likely recieve the new one and start building early next week. Any way you think the motor mounts could cause flutter? they did look kind of cheap to me.. think they might be causing vibration? think it is worthwhile switching them out?

I am certian I had no slop in the linkage. someone else mentioned an insufficent servo could cause flutter? what servos are you guys using? maybe it was builder error in the sense that I selected insufficient servos.

RE: Seagull's
So I worked on the Dual Ace, and saw that there really was very little "play" in the wing incidence so I kinda ruled that out right away. I moved the Battery back about 3 inches and it flew ALOT better. Did 5 flights on it and I found it flew a hair nose heavy at take off, within a minute or two of flight and trimming it was fine, and then by about 9-10 minutes of flying it started to get a litte tail heavy, but It seemed to be a good genral CG and it landed fine while it was a little tail heavy so I'm fine with that. unfortunatly on Flight number 7, I was getting more comfortable with the plane, and I decided to do some high speed passes. Up until this point was only ever flying it at around 3/5ths throttle. which it performs nicely at. so I did one nice low high speed pass and it looked great. and seemed to perform well. I came around and did another, and then another to get the hang of it. I am only using 10x6 props so it only really hits 60mph, but still looks great. on the 3rd pass, one of the ailerons flew off and was dragging by the push rod. the plane immetatly started to roll towards the dragging ailron. I immedtatly throttled back, assuming it was caused by engine flutter, and kicked in high rates trying to compensate with both ailron and rudder, but she was fairly close to the ground at that point.. probably less that 50 feet, and she just spiraled in towards the fallen ailron. In hind sight, I probably should have kepted the power on, to keep more air moiving over the good ailron, and re-gained control at a faster speed get used to it and then land it at a fast speed, but, I only had about 3 seconds.. and all my previous experience with these types of issues told me it was flutter and to throttle back. after looking at the crash damage the engines seemed fine so i'm pretty sure it wasn;t flutter. , and all 3 hinges on the one side were shered. they haddnt pulled out, they just were all ripped in half. I've never seen that. Anyways. its not re-buildable, and at $200 for the ARF it would be stupid to re-build it anyways as it would likely cost more. I'm not sure if I will buy another one. seems althoght this is a fun plane, this ARF might be a little on the cheap side. (quality wise) might be a good idea for me to find a twin of a little higer quality. If anyone has suggestions of another .46 sized arf let me know I;ve already. got all the gear I need.

RE: Seagull's
[quote]ORIGINAL: jrf Matt: WAIT. The advice I gave you is backward because it was based on elevator down-trim, and what you have is elevator up-trim. You need to raise the leading edge of the wing, not the trailing edge. But back to the original question; with that up-trim, it does sound like the airplane is nose heavy. To review the basics, you balance the airplane upside-down and level

RE: Seagull's
as a side note.. without significant elevator trim she will ALWAYS dive. even at full throttle when the elevator is nutral. when I trim it about 3/4 of my elevator trim I can keep her at level flight at 1/2 throttle. then at that trim setting when I throttle up, she climbs almost like she is going for a loop. then when I drop it to idle. she will immedatly dive to about 50 degrees down. and I half to hold about 3/4 elevator to get her to come in and land nice. thats why I thought it might be nose heavy... but hopefully the wing incidence will fix it. thanks again

RE: Seagull's
maybe I am using the term wrong. when I say "down evelvator" I mean.. the trim. I move the trim downwards.. like pulling the stick towards me as in pulling out of a dive. .. the elveators themselves move up. maybe I am using the term wrong. as for the washers. I will do this next chance I get. just to clarify the procedure. I will take the washer, and put the wing bolt through it like any other washer on a bolt. then screw it into the wing finger tight. then, I will push the back of the wings all the way up as much as they can go and tighten the washers. then I will measure from the bottom of the fuse to the trailing edge to make sure they are both the same, and then glue the washers in place. sounds simple enough. I will try that first. and fly it. if that does not work, I will add a washer to the top 2 engine mount bolts on each engine to add down thrust. and try again. thanks so much for your help. as a side note, she is a really fun plane to fly. I look forward to getting her tweaked out and set up perfect. :) thanks!

RE: Seagull's
Hey There All you Fellow DA owners. This thread has been a wealth of Information for me, I only wish I could Say I;ve read all 36 pages. I got through about 24 of them and learned ALOT, but I have a couple of questions that I would love some help on if you can. First of all I Have 2 flights on my DA. and at 105mm cg she still seems awfully nose heavy to me, but after reading this forum, I have a feeling I have a very different issue than CG here is my problem: She I have a lot of down elevator trimmed into her to keep her from diving at 1/2 throttle. I have it set up now so when I fly a 1/2 she flys straight hands off. as soon as I throttle up.. at that trim setting she climbs ALOT. bring her back to 1/2 and shes fine again, and when I drop the throttle for approach the nose falls like there is a brick in it. So my feeling was.. nose heavy.. bring the CG back another 5-10mm. then I read this thread and saw a post about wing incidence and wooden washers.... hmmmm I bought this arf 3 years ago.. and only just assembled it this year... and I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE MANUAL IS. and further more.. I have these Wooden washers that I had NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH when I built it. they are still in the box. so here I am thinking after reading the post about setting the wing incidence, and using the wooden washers to do this, that maybe my climbing and diving issue is wing incidence related. I;ve never needed wooden washers on a wing before.. of course most of the ARFs i;ve built have used Dowels along with wing bolts so I suspect that is why.. Can anone fill me in on this washer thing.. and what I am supposed to do with them? and how I properly set the wing incidence? any help would be appreciated.

RE: FS one by Horizon Hobbies
Just installed my copy on the weekend. What an awesome simulator package. I absolutly love the panorama flying sites! The only issue I have had (and I havn;t read all of this thread yet, or the FAq's) is helicopters sometimes won't throttle up when you load them even after engaging the engine switch they just sit on the runway. all I have to do is exit and reload the sim, but I found it a little odd. other than that it is extremly realistic and really fun! Also it would be nice if there is a way to remap one of the "tach con" switches for bomb drop. I havn;t found how to do that but that would be a cool feature. Also would be nice to have the "Showtime 4D" on there as a plane :) just a wish list for next package. Great sim though love it!

RE: KMP Hurricane in detail
[quote] The model though does call for a .91 - 1.20 4-stroke, therefore the RCV91 is at the lower end of the power range. It really depends on a modellers preference. [/quote] Laurenne is right on when she says it depends on modellers preference. I have the KMP Hurricane with the RCV 90SP (2:1) the model weighs in at 13.5 lbs and it flys very scale. the only issue I;ve had with the RCV is it looses power in flight (my assumption is its overheating. I have been playing with ducting and increasing air outlet and such to resolve this and am confident I will resolve it eventually. Once I do I am sure I will be happy with the 91 in this model. Anyone else however I would reccomend going to the next size up, (120SP) I needed almost a pound in the nose, and the extra power would have been nice to have. but the 91 does do the job. I will know more once I get my power loss issue fixed. Looks VERY SCALE TOO with nothing sticking out of the cowel.

RE: Showtime
yes, sounds tail heavy to me. Could be thrust lines but I would think the issue would be there all the time if it was thrust lines. both normal flight and inverted. I land my show time just by throttleing back and gliding in. I do usuall require little or no up elevator to flare it. just let it glide in. and it should set up its own approach without adding in any elevator at all if it starts to stall I just add some power or a hair of down elevator to keep from stalling. I admit this plane lands a little different than anything else I;ve flown but it shouldn;;t be hard. if it is giving you "ulcers" I'd say move the CG forward a little.

RE: FS one by Horizon Hobbies
personally.. I think $200 is reasonable, especially since it comes with a controller. however, I agree if they were cheaper they would sell more. For example if they were $100 I'd probably buy them all, G3, AFPD,FS1. When ever a new one came out I'd just pick it up like I do video games. as it stands now.. $250 by the time you pay tax and shipping etc, consumers are more likely to research and buy only one Sim, use it until it is obsolete 3-5 years, then buy a new one. But either way, I'm buying FS1 when it comes out.

your YS110 probably weighs about the same as my TT 120 2 Stroke about 32 Oz with muffler. I believe the YS110 is about the same at about 29 Oz with muffler. I opted for the Push Pull system with Servo mounted in the Tail and have the battery.. 5 Cell NiMh at the the back of the compartment. Cg right on reccomended. Flies nice that way.. although most of the guys that fly 3d in the club say CG should be moved back beyond reccomended but I like it there so you should have no issues putting the servo in the tail.
