The fix to the last beta for the Wildcat has been posted. It's a day later than I said, but it's done.

The link to the betas is on the bottom of the page.

This fixes the climb takeoff problem. Carrier takeoffs are still dubious at best and require at least a 25-30 mph headwind. It can be done, but it will take LOTS of practice.

The inside wing stalls at about 155 mph in a tight bank (it should), so keep your speed above that.

Feedback on stick response is needed. On my sytem if I yank the stick back to do a turn, it will flip on it's back. I can get the stickk all the way back but I have to ease it there. I need to know what other people are experiencing.

Which end does the propeller thingy go on?

Da Wing Waxer, thanks for your excellent work! However, I noted that, when the Wildcat is flown by the autopilot, the undercarriage does not fold up on takeoff (in a mission created by me).

I haven't had the flip over when I yank back, but I have my MS Sidewinder toned down with CTFJ too because I yank my stick too much.
