What is control to make the wing slats retract?
What is control to make the wing slats retract?
Still trying to figure out how to retract the leading edge slats.
Its been a while since I've taken the F-100 up but as I recall the slats retract/extend automatically. I seem to recall they retract around 350 kts. The F-100 really likes the higher speeds but you have to work a bit to keep the AOA down so you can accelerate through that 300 knot range. I'll load it up this afternoon once I have a bit of time and try and confirm!

Looks like the slats are fine. I noted they were moving back with additional thrust.
Yep, it looks like they retract/extend based on the angle of attack. On my system that has them retracting at about 265 knots around sea level. It's a fun machine!
