    Now it's time to do the tests, then apply primer and paint.

    First grab a copy of the SimTools manual and keep it handy for reference: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/rtfm-start-with-the-official-simtools-documentation.117/

    Also see the flight related comments in the motion profile tuning tips: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    For flight profiles start with roll and pitch, or where supported by the plugin you can use Extra 1 and 2 in place of pitch and roll, as roll and pitch invert from one axis extreme to the other at 180 degree in-game inversion. SimTools also has an Anti-Rollover checkbox function, see the manual.

    Total axis allocation for general aviation flight profiles can be closer to 80-90% of both the available roll and pitch axis, as it is unlikely both will be at their extreme range at the same time. But be a bit more conservative in axis allocation for acrobatic and combat profiles that do use extreme maneuvers.
