TP stall

2 posts in this topic

Posted (edited)

Well, I have been experimenting with different stalls and this is my favorite!

Power Off, Full Flap, stick pulled all the way back and centered left and right, using slight rudder input to level the wings

losing 500' per minute and slightly moving forward (My airspeed readings stop at 39 knots on the AHRS app).  The stall is the slight 5 degrees of nose up and down at the start of the video.

Sorry for the hairy, pasty, white legs!

Really neat flight characteristics!

My maule would "mush" down like this as well.  I remember thinking it wouldn't be the worst technique to use in a forced landing where you have bad forward visibility  (iced up windshield, imc, dark night with no reference, ect.)

Gonna bend up some stuff for sure, but I think a guy could have a decent chance of walking away at 500 fpm and <39 mph.
