Hello RetiredF4;

We're on the same page I think, in fact I recall arguing against simulation of the stall for diagnostic purposes in the original threads for the very reasons described - there's no data and it is "here be dragons" land...as you say, GIGO, (however, I think that is changing).

That said, I considered that the behaviour of the THS in response to orders from the stick, (which in turn was ordering the elevators) would not be affected by the stall and that is the only point I'm making.

The THS would still respond "normally" to inputs on the stick, in other words, regardless of AoA, rates of descent, etc., etc. Also, it would still respond to manual input using the two wheels on the pedestal.

Yes, your remarks regarding 1g clear that up, thank you.
