DH82 Tiger Moth II for X-Plane 11
This time around we feature DH82 Tiger Moth II for X-Plane 11 by Frederick Stegmann and Johan van Wyk. This five livery package features improved textures, flight performance enhancements, operational and visible slats, cosmetic improvements, and great PDF documentation.
The de Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth is a 1930s British biplane designed by Geoffrey de Havilland and built by the de Havilland Aircraft Company. It was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF) and many other operators as a primary trainer aircraft.
In late 1934 50 Tiger Moths of a more refined design, sometimes referred to as the Tiger Moth II, were delivered to the RAF; these aircraft saw the adoption of the de Havilland Gipsy Major engine, capable of generating 130 HP.
The Tiger Moth responds well to control inputs and is fairly easy to fly for a tail-dragger. Its big "parachute" wings are very forgiving, and it stalls at a speed as slow as 25 knots with power. Its stall and spin characteristics are benign. It has some adverse yaw and therefore requires rudder input during turns. (Source: Wikipedia)
