X-Plane racing for iPhone is here, X-Plane multiplayer free upgrade is here for all iPhone Apps, X-Plane 930 Beta-4 is getting close! For 9.30 Beta-4, we are finalizing the bug-fixes, and adding a new flight model enhancement that really steps of the realism of the flight model: WAKE.
The WAKE model actually tracks the airflow behind all wings and tails to see if the horizontal stab is in the decelerated flow from the wing, or the aft wing is in decelerated from the canard.
You do NOT have to change any of your craft to take advantage of this new modeling: The flow-field is automatically re-considered everywhere around the plane in real-time during flight. You don't need to DO anything with your aircraft to take advantage of this new realism. You may notice the planes are not quite so 'aggressive' or 'sensitive' in pitch, though, in same cases, since now the tail will be in decelerated flow, and therefore a little less effective, in some cases, just like the real plane!
We expect beta-4 in a few days, and will include screen shots showing this and other flow-field effects in 3-D like you have never seen in a real-time sim before!
