no flap take off

[mickp]

hey all,
I'm just trying out the demo at the moment and have one initial question. i fly a lot of smaller planes, most of which do not require flaps on
take off, except for short field situations. Is there a way to represent this in FSP somehow so that there is no penalty for taking
off "flapless" in these types of planes?

Force disable in the configuration folder. There's a line about flaps in there so just Force Disable it.

Is it really that hard to take off with one notch in order to not get the penalty?

Ok, disabling was easy. As for taking off with one notch, well, then I'll forget to remove that notch until 30 minutes into the flight!
Thanks for the help - just ordered!

Disabling is safer as the method used by FSPx to detect flaps state does not work 100% correctly with every aircraft.

I have recently switched to a SAAB 340B and according to FPSx when you land with one flap notch is ok, but when you use two flap notches you get the
message "You landed without deployng flaps etc etc" which is wrong.
