Comper CLA7 Swift yasim readme. This is not an authentic representation of a Comper CLA7 Swift but it's based on the right numbers, where I could find them. The actual aircraft modelled is G-ABUU (c/n S32/5) - C of A first issued 08/04/1932. The a/c was used as a company demonstrator on an extensive European sales tour in April/May 1932 and was subsequently placed second in the 1933 King's Cup race where it flew as number 26. Notes ----- There are no flaps on the Swift so I've re-bound the flap keys '[/]' to adjust the view control, when sitting in the cockpit, to shift the viewpoint left or right, to allow the pilot to see what's in front of them. While this works in the VC mode (view 0), in other modes (chase etc.) it shifts the view up & down. This is to be resolved. Afaik, the Swift had no brakes and relied upon it's low approach speed and the rolling resistance of the LP tyres to stop once on the ground. Once the engine is running, you can either control the throttle manually or via the AP. For info: --------- The Pobjoy 'R' is a seven cyl, air-cooled radial - 2835 cc with bore & stroke of 77mm x 87mm and a compression ratio of 5.7:1. Petrol consumption is 0.57 pints (Imp) per b.h.p. per hour and oil consumption 0.9 pints (Imp) per hour. Normal engine power and rpm is 75 b.h.p. @ 3000 r.p.m. and the maximium power is 85 b.h.p. @ 3300 r.p.m. for a maximum of ten minutes. ---- Lee Elliott. 2004-09-12.
