I've uploaded the X-Plane computer flight model I've been using for
simulation and testing to the list web site. I've been working at it off
and on for quite awhile, and I believe that the model is as accurate as
X-Plane is going to get.

The model includes the Rebel airfoils, Rotax 912uls, and 3 blade warp drive
prop. Default CG is at 19.5". Fuse and wing drag and lift should be
accurate.

X-Plane does not have a "flaperon", so the aileron response is approximate
at best. I'm fairly certain that the lift from the modeled flaps is too
high, but I have no real data to compare against, so it is what it is.

This model has been strictly for flight modeling, no eye candy involved.

If anyone will actually use it, I can work up a Lyc Rebel model, but 733 is
a Rotax, so that's what the model is.
