have some trouble whit my aircraft.cfg
im at the end of the edition of  my aircraft.cfg  hall go very well except 2 thing  Sad
1 dont know why but i have to set up the reference datum 7 feet at front of the 1/4 wing  oterwise mi c.o.g and my gear position is not aligned whit the phisical gear and the wing of the plane and the plane is not flyable !
2 the plane dont whant to take off i have to slew up my plane for take off Sad
whene airborn the plane fly well (i have learn from the cfs2004 sdk
i can't land or take off (on the ground the plane move a very very litle bit at full rpm) the plane seem like glued !
brake or parking is not aply
dont know if the cose is the propeler ?he have fixed pitch at 19 degree  pls help !
 

There is a 100pixle wide, and 10kb large, size limits on Avatars.&&&&Thank you for doing your part to make this a better place for all who visit by observing these guidelines. Smiley

Sorry old chap. I would help if I could. I know very little about FS flight dynamics. I don't know which aircraft you based this on so I tried your contact_points, static_pitch & static_cg_height entries in the FS9 default Piper Cub Aircraft.cfg. It works fine so I don't think that's the problem.

I did notice the parking_brake=0 entry is duplicated but I don't think that's it either.

Have find the trouble
my exterior and interior pivot point in gmax model was 7 feet back of the 1/4 edge of the wing that why the datum was ofset and the plane was glued on runway have move my interior and exterior general pivot at reference datum my plane take off now thank aniway !
