Stemme S12 Gear alarm and ground turning radius

Post by brucesailor » Mon Mar 15, 2021 6:18 pm

I fly a Stemme S10-VT in RL, and am enjoying the S12 a lot. Great Job, Thank You.

I have 2 comments about the implementation.

1 In RL(real life) Stemmes, When the air brakes are extended, they sound a really obnoxious sound if the gear is not extended. Really wakes you up and is very affective. I've been doing some touch and go's ( something I don't do in RL) and in 2 sessions, I've landed with the gear up, I always quit when that happens. Last night it occurred to me that the alarm is not in the S-12 SIM. Not sure if it's a lot of work to add but it would imitate real life better.

2 Ground handling - Making a u turn in the Sim S-12 takes a huge area, in RL it can turn in a about 75 feet. Again, this would reflect RL, and allow a relaunch without exiting the flight and starting over.
