My plane keeps stalling, even when Im flying fast. Whats wrong with this flight model?
Stalls are not caused by low speed. They are caused by the angle of attack (the angle of the wings relative to the airflow) becoming high enough that the air moving over the wing becomes turbulent and no longer produces lift properly. Stalls can happen at low speed, when the sink rate causes the direction of travel to be at an angle to the plane of the wings. They can also happen when you turn sharply at high speed, effectively turning the belly of the aircraft into the wind. These high-speed stalls increase drag dramatically, and burn off speed rapidly. They can often lead to a second, low-speed stall. If you are pulling back on the stick and airspeed is dropping radically, you are flying at a high angle of attack and not flying efficiently. A light hand on the stick is critical when using the new flight model, and the faster your aircraft is moving, the more conservative your stick movements should be. This is especially true of aircraft with a high rate of climb. For instance, the D
