Trouble taking off in Lagg


Recommended Posts

Posted

Don't know what I am doing wrong. I still can't get the Lagg off the runway. No problem with the 109. Suggestions? Seems like I get half way down the runway and start pulling up on the stick, but the plane won't come up. ?????????  Frustrating. Any help appreciated.

Mix back, prop pitch full forward, drop 4 secs of flap.

 

I'm guessing it's a prop pitch (Constant Speed Unit) issue. Are you seeing 2700 RPM? Because at 2700 and full throttle she comes up fine.

LaGG3 actually seems to takeoff easier now in this version than it did before, I second the prop pitch suggestion.

Yea, I thought since it was a constant speed prop I didn't have to set the prop pitch. I will work on it.

Set to 2700rpm, and then apply throttle - I just read it somewhere, I think it was FAQ/Troubleshooting topic  :biggrin: .

You definitely need to set the prop pitch, else that thing is just a brick.

Yep, you guys were right. Set prop pitch and no problem at all. Thanks for the help.
