Download Download the Socata Rallye MS-893E aircraft package for the current stable release (2020.3).

The Rallye 893 is a single engined, low wing monoplane of all metal construction, fitted with a fixed tricycle gear. It has a bulbous cockpit which houses four people and it can be used as a towplane for sailplanes.

One of its particularities is beeing equiped with automatic slats, that deploy at low speeds/high incidence, help in slow flight and enable the plane to sink in wings-level reduced-power stalls rather than break with a nose-down pitch change.

The slats combined to the important fowler flaps allow for very short take off and landings, even on rough surfaces.

Speeds

  • Cruise speed: 113 kt ( 209 km/h )
  • Never-exceed (Vne): 156 kt ( 290 km/h )
  • Maneuvering (Va): 113 kt ( 210 km/h )

For aerotow

  • Place the Rallye within 60m to a glider
  • The glider pilot has to press Ctrl-o to hook the link
  • You can press Shift-o to release your hook
  • A better aerotow help can be found on Howto:_Do_aerotow_over_the_net

Finished

  • 3D geometry
  • Sounds
  • Basic FDM - yet it flies nicely, and does tow
  • Basic Texturing

TODO

  • Fix the cruise behaviour ( so far in cruise speed the nose is a bit pitched down )
  • Automatic slats
  • aileron trim
  • A proper electrical and instrumentation setup
  • Detailing on the textures, liveries
  • Immatriculation
  • Lights
  • clickable panel regions
  • a MS893 specific tachymeter
  • EGT display doesn't work
