Did quick climb test at 80% climbed at around 4000FPM at fl200 it was around 2000FPM 170KTS. failed engine and did a 130KT best glide - this is the fun stuff, need to find better way to test. According to the specs and my calculations it should at 130kts descend at around 1100 fpm and it wasnt far off. I started at around FL24, probably 330 nm from airport need to do with map next time to confirm, I overflew the airport which is about right should have given me 43 nm.

I tend to agree with your comment. Howe...@ David A<br /><br />I tend to agree with your comment. However, this is a side effect of trying to have the flaps to compensate for the stall speed in approach configuration predicted by XP11 which is a little high… I'll see what I can do to mitigate the problem.ScimmiaSpazialehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04185511694079000055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-67346691831526034512019-06-30T12:11:52.999+02:002019-06-30T12:11:52.999+02:00Hi Dino,Begun some flight testing, only just start...Hi Dino,Begun some flight testing, only just started but can you have a look at nose pitch when raising lowering flaps seems a bit aggressive.<br />THanksDavid Anoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-77797532787362708872019-06-27T14:35:19.948+02:002019-06-27T14:35:19.948+02:00Hi David

I've been busy at work.<br /><br />I have been working on tweaking the manipulators and I have found several solutions to the problem... will keep you posted.<br /><br />@Christian<br /><br />Thanks for the comments. I will verify them. As for the sound, however, the problem is generated by the fact that I am using the default XP11 sound engine. It is possible to solve it by using FMOD, but given that there is an associated license fee I am not sure I want to go in that direction...<br /><br />DinoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-63413129519546559812019-06-25T16:55:23.009+02:002019-06-25T16:55:23.009+02:00My findings so far:

I hope to solve all the possible issues, but the model renders a little differently from how it shows in FSX, P3D and AFS2. If a texturing issue is spotted please specify the exact livery.<br /><br />- I understand manipulators is perceived as a big issue. Please specify your preferred manipulator.<br /><br />- I would suggest NOT to change the files on your own initiative, and the OBJ files in particular: all the OBJ are subject to change.<br /><br />DinoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-3682885309761243422019-06-24T12:59:43.613+02:002019-06-24T12:59:43.613+02:00Cockpit
