September 29, 200817 yr Anybody know where I can get some better numbers for my Gulfstream? I'm using the very lovely Gulfstream IV by Rick Sasala. The plane flies great, but the weights are all way off. This results in fuel flows and ranges not working well at all. I've found good information on the actual weights of the aircraft. Off the top of my head, the FS version has a max gross of around 20 or 30k, which is actually less than the empty weight of the real thing. I've modified the fuel flow scalar to give me the correct maximum range, but it gives a cruise fuel flow of about one tenth of what it should be.I've looked around a little for tweaks, but so far haven't found anything. Any tweakers out there who can point me in the right direction?
October 6, 200817 yr Here is some spec's,which are hard to find. http://www.smartcockpit.com/plane/gulfstream/GIV-GIVSP/ From this data, someone that knows how to tweak air files should be able to get close to the real A/C,as far as performance goes.

October 7, 200817 yr It is going to be difficult.Partially because Gulfstream is very opposed to anything related to Flight Simulator.Some guys who work a bit on flight dynamics are found over on the Sim-Outhouse forums. Another excellent source are the tools from Jerry Beckwith's MudPond.org site - http://www.mudpond.org/
October 12, 200817 yr "Better numbers" is far too broad a question. What sort of numbers are you looking for?RegardsBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO 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
