FW-190 flaps

[Jorge_S]

I don't know if this is a technical issue or knowledge gap.

 

In the FW-190 I can't push flaps beyond ~10 degrees, which I believe is the take-off position

 

I have flaps mapped to keyboard, one key for flaps up, another for flaps down. when I click flaps down, it will move to take-off, if I click flaps down again nothing will happen

clicking flaps up will withdraw it

 

So am I missing something maybe another key to push flaps to landing position?

 

thanks in advance
 

 

please ignore... I got it... you have to be airborne/ landing gear up to set the lowest flap

 

lol, that explains why it was so hard to land it... FW190 with 10 degrees flap is no fun.. plane conserves speed and doesn't want to stop

No you don't have to be airborne or have the gear up to fully lower the landing flaps.
