OTOH, Sebastien mentioned in their last Q&A twitch session that a revised version of the default C172 will be introduced with the next simulator update, bringing the aircraft to much closer to real numbers and response to control inputs.
I am really willing to find out what the users can say after testing that updated version, and what changed in the CFG files, in order to produce the better results because it was implicit that no core change would be required and it was just a question of modifying some aspects of the aircraft geometry and some aerodynamic coefficients ( ? )
Let’s hope for the best… although I also hope it doesn’t turn out to be one of those “solutions” where some scalars on control throw are made so low that the aircraft appears to respond acceptably to the inputs, but the true deflections / rates are completely out of sync with reality :-/ compromising other aspects of the overall aerodynamic model for a C172, or similar aircraft…
