Default hover ..

I've downloaded a Cap232 IMAC and I am unable to set it up to hover. It seems to be way underpower. At full stick does not climb. Anyone could point in the right direction? Setup perhaps..

Thanks much.

Just download a different cap . Maybe the cap 2x if you want to learn to hover or the Jason Shulman cap if you want to do imac type practicing.

Default I agree

I use the CAP 2x, and it works nicely...

Unfortunately, a bad side effect is that I now know that my 14 yr old is MUCH better at this than I am....Prior to now, I only had a hint...

Go in and modify the engine to give you more power.

The stock (i.e. unmodified) Cap 232 will torque roll very well.... if you're good on the sticks! After you get good at tr'ing some of the highly modified "3d-able" planes off the internet (which IMHO fly very unrealistically), start trying it with the stock Cap. That's what I did - it takes a lot of practice, but once you learn it's quirks you'll get to where you're making corrections almost before they are needed.

I looked at some of the larger planes that are suppose to be like the pros planes and they have VERY light wingloading. Some as low as 17oz/sqft. Is this realistic?

Default Torque rolin'

Hi all,
For what its worth i've played around with G2 alot and my 30% cap and believe the following:
Cap232 x2: The best to work out where the sticks should be
going but generaly not that realistic.
Jason Shulmans Torque roler: Spot on for realism.

Default Cap 232: Not too bad...if you can torque roll this theres no excuse not to do it with ya model!!!

btw the default ryan sta does a good TR!!!

Have Fun

Is there anywhere I can find the Jason Shulman plane? It's not on the G2, nor unofficial G2 swap pages. Thanks!

Do you mean the Plane Files or Color Scheme?

hi,
If you do a search in this forum for "shulman" you'll find his torque roler and his F3a style plane at the time his freestyle plane was yet to be posted... did Jason ever post his freestyle plane?

Cheers all.
