    Features mainly ground handling improvements.
    Fully compatible with all third-party mods and liveries.
    Simply drag and drop the "zzz-tiger's dc3 mod" folder into your Community folder.
    Please do not remove the "zzz-" prefix or this mod won't work with the Duckworks mod.

    Ground Handling improvements:
    Rudder re-configured to create more yaw than roll effect.
    Tailwheel steering effect minimised to allow more rudder control.
    Various weathervane effects and associated forces minimised on the ground.
    Take-off and landing is now possible in up to 20kts crosswind.

    Your comments and suggestions will be very much appreciated.

    Thank you! I don't completely agree with the Duckworks FM, so until now I usually installed the mod but kept the original FM file.

    Looking forward to try your version further, only had a very quick flight just now which felt quite good.

    Sorry I couldn't do anything about removing the G-OOSE tail number, it's baked in to the model itself. I have created a bug report on the official forums though, please vote for it if this issue has affected you: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t...-number/632162

    You might actually make me pick up the Shrike! I wasn't impressed with its default flight characteristics from what I saw in others videos, so any improvement is welcome. Your Ercoupe mod is great, though I do think BRSim incorporated some of your changes into their base model eventually. I still have yours running though and it's made the Ercoupe well worth flying.

    Thank you very much, I hope you'll enjoy the Twinkie as much as I do!
