This is an update of the Moller Skycar 400 V4 by AC Kerkhove.  I have updated the flight dynamics and corrected the problem of the GPS not showing properly when it is toggled.  I have changed the aircraft from one engine to 4 engines.  I tried to contact Mr. Kerkhove but the e-mail came back as undeliverable.

Unzip to a folder of your choice.  After backing up your air, aircraft.cfg, and panel.cfg files replace them with the ones in this update.  If you want all the paints that were originally part of the package to show, you need to copy the paint sections from your saved aircraft.cfg file, or at least the section(s) that I don't have in the file with this update.

I have too many aircraft to have so many paints of each one.  By keeping just three paints and deleteing any other things like pictures that I don't need, the 15 mega bytes of the original zip file slimmed down to a bit over 6 mega bytes of zip file to store on any back up disks I make.

The aircraft is still a bit faster than the reference speeds show by 20 to 30 knots.  With a little practice I think the aircraft will be able to be put down almost anywhere you wish.  It still needs full up trim with full flaps, but you can take it off with full flaps and trim, hands off, without the nose dropping too much.

The trick to landing with flaps is to use the spoiler to slow down enough so when you start applying flaps you don't gain a lot of height.
