Water Takeoff with 15 degrees of Flaps
May 1, 2023 17:49:45 #
Drag from excessive flaps extension can slow the release from the water, but a little flap is often beneficial when the intention is to launch as early in the forward motion as possible. All that's needed is some frantic paddling, a couple of jumps, some energetic flap usage at no more than 15 degrees, and even the largest aerial vehicle can gain effective flying speed and sufficient lift for safe takeoff.
