• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Crossover AOA

Hello everyone,

Within the confines of the FS9 aerodynamics model, is it possible to model the crossover AOA of a particular aircraft?
 
Could you give your understanding of the term "crossover AOA"?
I understand the term crossover speed in the context of a flight upset caused by a rudder hardover failure.
That speed below which aileron /spoiler control is lost against the effects of full rudder. That speed will be influenced by AOA because, in general, aileron control is diminished at high AOA.
If the above is what you are after, the answer is probably yes because record 451 can scale roll moment coefficient vs AOA in the presence of sideslip.
