June 26, 200718 yr Hi all!First of all thanks for this great addon! I have a problem, but most probably it's me or my setup. I need around 1.4 EPR to brake away and to keep her at about 15Kts taxi speed. 1.4 EPR is way too much, I fly her bigger sister, B727 in real life and I don't need that kind of thrust to brake away. I've got the Ch flight sim yoke and ch pro pedals. I suspect that the brakes are binding but haven't got a clue how to correct this. Can anybody please help?Thanks,Martin

June 26, 200718 yr It isn't your config...it's a combination of two "simisms" we have to live with. The first is the well-known problem with FS flight modeling known as the "sticky" runway issue. There's a modded sim1.dll file out there that reduces the friction of the ground and thrust requirements some.The other part of the problem is the constant specific fuel consumption thrust model in FS. If we were to model the ground idle thrust correctly, the idle fuel flow would be far too high. I prefer to see idle performance, including FF, where it should be, and just accept that it takes higher power settings to taxi.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
June 26, 200718 yr Hi Bob,Yeah ok, understand, I can live with the same, feel bad for them virtual airport people and equipment my mouse must be basting all over the show....As a favour, can could you pls take a peak at my fsuipc.cfg file and see if all looks well, not for the high thrust, but just to see if all is set up well, as I'm not ace with these kind of things.Oh btw, what's the next project? GLF2B? Also flew some hours in that Bob, N436JW...Cheers from Southern Africa!Martin
