BRSIMDESIGNS - ERCOUPE 415C MSFS

BRSIMDESIGNS - ERCOUPE 415C MSFS

I own an ercoupe in real life and fly it every week, so here is my take:  The model is beautiful, the tail and canopy shake a bit too much, I would be really worried if mine did this in real life LOL. You need to increase the drag because with the limited up elevator the ercoupe sinks like a rock with a nose up attitude at about 65mph in real life even though the stall speed is 46. The glide ratio of an ercoupe is about 1:7 at 75mph. Best rate of climb (80) on an ercoupe with a single passenger of about 150 and full fuel is about 450/500fpm on a nice cool day, like 350/400 on a warm day. The plane starts to fly off the ground with power in real life about 64mph on take off.  Also; please re add an option with rudder pedals. My ercoupe has rudder pedals installed so it is nice to be able to fly it both traditional and with pedals. With these improvements it will feel like the real deal. Thanks!!
