This is a quick and dirty start to an X-plane simulation.
I took a O320 LongEZ, same engine, just added coaxial propellors driventhrough a transmission by the single engine. Not optimized yet, props
still fixed pitch.
It's really stable in level flight, unlike the original which tends to
fall off left or right (just like my real Long-EZ).
When I pull the nose up to zero airspeed it gets into this inverted deep
stall that is (so far) not recoverable, and loses altitude at only 1000fpm!
It will be very interesting to play with this model.

Perry have you ever come across a file converter which will allow you
to convert and install a standard Cad file into X plane? I've been looking
for a way to get my Iges and SW files into it w/ out having to remodel
them in the X plane modeler..

Curious..
