The P-factor adds to realism, but there are a few prerequisites:Ģ. This is the case in almost all single engine propeller aircraft most engines (but not all) turn clockwise. In situations in which engine power is high with respect to airspeed (takeoff, climb, recovery from stall) the pilot has to apply "right rudder". This so-called P-factor is compensated for cruise speed in the Cessna 172 with a bent strip of metal at the trailing end of the rudder in the Arrow by the rudder trim, but the degree of correction will depend upon airspeed. This, too, adds to a tendency to turn left. Moreover, a propeller blade that goes down will generate more thrust than one going upward because the former will have a higher speed with respect to the air and will have a larger angle-of-attack, caused by the propeller axis being more pitch-up than the aircraft path. It will collide with the vertical fin, pushing it to the right, thus causing the aircraft to turn left. Therefore, the propwash will take a spiraling trajectory along the fuselage. In the real aircraft the propeller turns clockwise as seen from the pilot's seat. I placed the engine slightly to the right of the midline in the flight dynamics (aircraft.cfg, Piper Archer-III_nwf.air and Piper Archer-III_wwf.air) to simulate the P-factor: The instruments were put in place using FS Panel Studio. The annunciator panel is functional, as is the audio panel, on which sound of markers, nav 1 and 2, and ADF can be switched on and off. each, and the fuel gauges will indicate "full" at that amount.
The subscale of the altimeter was changed to read both hPa (=mBar) and inches of mercury. The gyro can be reset pressing the key, but also, more realistically, by turning the knob using the mouse.
The directional gyro has the usual random drift, but I added an extra drift in steep turns its absolute value is proportional to the rate-of-turn-squared. The gauges that are specific to the Archer were made in xml. Without fairings the aircraft will be about 5 kt slower. The '16x9' panel is for wide screen monitors. Like in the real Archer the trim surface at the trailing end of the elevator wil move extra as the elevator is moved.Ĭhoices can be made between Archers with a '16x9' and a '4x3' panel, and with or without the wheel fairings installed. The gear has suspension, as can be seen when moving on uneven ground. The ribbon to keep this door in the open position is represented too.
The bagage door will open by, followed bij. First the door latch will open together with the storm window, a small window within the window directly to the pilot's left, and then the door itself. In the virtual cockpit I left out the pilot and the head rests of the front seats, in order to facilitate looking around.Īlso, the yoke is semi-transparent in the vc. Many parts could be borrowed from other members of the Piper family, such as the FS X Arrow (arrowiva.zip ) and the FS 2004 Pipers I uploaded before. The model with animations was made using GMax.
In LOD 400 everything is present in LOD 5 there are only flat, unanimated and untextured silhouette of fuselage, wings and tail. The exterior model contains LOD's: Levels-Of-Dilution when the aircraft gets more remote, less detail is shown, requiring less processing time. Make sure the option "use directories" is active, (it usually is) for the directory structure is contained within the.

Installation: unzip Archer-3.zip to your Microsoft Flight Simulator X folder. This is Archer-3.zip for FS X with SP 2 which, of course, has many features of the Piper Arrow-IV, arrowiva.zip, released already.
