• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Flight Dinamics request

Rafaelle, you are seeing that you will need to simply investigate and explore on your own, and with due diligence over time, you'll figure it out. That having been said, I will be pleased to help out in any way I can. As you correctly state, 520 cubic inches should be divided by six to enter into the .cfg file, a rather egregious error on the part of the original developer.
 
I would also like to mention for the benefit of Rafaelle that fully 99.9 percent of flight simulation enthusiasts have never taken the controls of any aircraft; it's a great hobby and being a real-world pilot is not necessary.

Do you know the original cfg file? It's exactly the other way round. The original cfg value was correct. He changed it to 520.

In a very short time I have learned to be a pilot and mechanic at the same time to be able to understand so much, even when I am not a real pilot I have flown many times and I am passionate about flying. I have seen the evolution of the models in the simulator and I like the AC and AL models mainly but I liked more to take them to an even more real setting, completely unaware what cubic inches should be divided by six, the manufacturer's manual never says such thing and it is logical that I understand that this is what should go in the .cfg file and I thank you very much for explaining, and then I should do the correction and adjust everything again. When I made my first post here on the forum it is because I want to learn. I thank you again as well as the rest of the people who gave their contribution greetings

Exactly the kind of person we need in aviation. Keep up the good work.
 
Good morning everyone! How can I ensure that the turbine does not lose efficiency at low altitude without altering the static thrust or the torque limit? I am referring to the AL AC90 with GARRETT TPE331-10-515K / 516 turbines, real pilots tell me that the turbine maintains 7.1 HP up to the full power FL150 and in cruising the tubing can give up to 440 hp at -12 ° C, I have been able to simulate the garret -10 in the start up and in the HRPM and LRPM in Low idle but I am unable to improve the efficiency of the turbine above 12000ft, I am sure that if I improve the efficiency I will earn the 40HP that I need . Does anyone know which board is modified to gain efficiency without increasing horsepower in the .air ??
 
In Ellover Dee’s first post on 26 April, the subject of the angle at which the wing is mounted on the fuselage is raised and it is correctly stated that later or current versions of the sim ignore this angle, it is not used. It also correctly states that Record 404 covers this by the position of the lift coefficient versus angle of attack curve. On 404 angle of attack is on the X axis and lift coefficient is on the Y axis.
The post states that if the curve is moved to the right the plane will fly more nose down. This is incorrect.
Assume that a lift coefficient of 0.1 is required for level flight at a specific weight, equivalent airspeed and air density.
Take the case where that lift coefficient occurs at zero AOA and the wing incidence is also zero. That airfoil would be non-symmetrical, and have a lot of camber.
Now move the airfoil lift curve 2 degrees AOA to the right on the 404 chart. The 0.1 lift coefficient now occurs at 2 degrees AOA. To achieve 2 degrees AOA with the same lift curve the nose will have to be raised through 2 degrees, not lowered.

It has been my experience with FSXA and P3D flight dynamics that I have been able to match sim performance and performance manual numbers. True, most of those sim airplanes are fast jets, none are pistons and only two are turboprop. It was also my experience when I was a pilot that the manuals tended to be based on worn out engines and most airplanes had performance that was better than the manuals.
It is advertised that FS2020 will have a far better set of flight dynamics that takes a lot more factors into consideration. I think that most of those factors address issues to do with left/right assymetry and those are mostly to do with prop airplanes. We shall see sometime soon.

Have you ever messed with the Wing Incidence and also the HTail incidence? This might be all you need to adjust if you just want your plane to change its attitude in flight.

Incidence is the angle of attack of the wing on the fuselage. Same for HTail (Elevators fixed surface area, Horizontal).
 
Hello everyone! Is it possible to expand the time from zero to 100% of the ignition? I have been able to delay the sudden rise in the rpm at ignition in table 509 by reducing the friction in some models but there are others that the ignition time is very short, I mean something similar to the propeller moment of inertia in the file. cfg but on power up, can anyone help me? Thank you
