Hi everybody,
i like to fly the F-14 in flightgear. When I updated the last version of the F-14 via QT-launcher (FGFS 2018.2.2), I observed a strange behaviour in flying the model.
When airborne the aircraft started strongly pitching forward. I had always to work against that, even with speeds above 400 kias. The former versions of the f-14 didn´t show that behaviour, they were stable at higher speeds and had only a gentle pitch down at lower speeds.
At first I checked if the joystick is aligned properly, but no issues where found. I tried the F-15, it showed a good flight behaviour, no issues.
Then I tried to uninstall the actual version, but the uninstall button in the qt-launcher does not work. So I deleted the files of the f-14 in "*\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\flightgear.org\aircraft-data" and "*\Users\User\Documents\FlightGear\Aircraft\org.flightgear.fgaddon\Aircraft" and copied an older version (1.3.1) of the f-14 in folder *\Programs\FlightGear 2018.2.2\data\Aircraft".
The older version did work well, no issues.
I reinstalled the new version of the f-14, the issue returned, same behaviour as mentioned above. So I assume a probable problem in the actual fdm of the f-14.
Does anybody experience similar problems with the actual version of the f-14?
cheers,
Solid
