Drooping flight control surfaces.

[Tosin_Salisu]

As we now have engine startup and shutdown in game, I think it would be more realistic to have the flight control surfaces such as elevators, ailerons and others, droop if the engines are shutdown. It would make the game more lifelike as the FCS are operated through hydraulics which are in turn powered by the engines.
Here is an image illustrating the droop:

We do have moving elivators.

He means in a default position. The rudder goes to one side for example in real life.

Very nice idea, unfortunately I have no votes left, don’t forget to vote for it too ;)

Hydraulic System Shutdown

Since engine start up and shut down is confirmed, I thought it would be a good idea to have the hydraulic system included within that procedure. Usually when an aircraft is shut down, the hydraulic system goes out as well, causing the rudder/ailerons to move away from their neutral position (due to wind). This is an interesting feature that would look amazing for parked aircraft, adding that extra bit of realism. It can also tie in with FDS’s live weather system. Heres a photo I took of a Boein…
