Improved climb capability mod

[ryanbatc 12,812]

Agreed on the Mustang, but it't too dang slow...  it's a VLJ I think technically.  We need more 400+ ktas bizjets that are of HQ.  I guess Eaglesoft's C560 will be next?

Ryan you are correct... ^_^

I’ve done as you have instructed but I’m being told I can’t save the file because I need permission from the owner or administrator. Am I doing something wrong sir?

Fortunately the link in the original post is still alive and active!  I used the Firefox browser and was able to download so there is something you are doing wrong on your end.

I meant the cfg file cannot be saved. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I copied and pasted the new cfg onto the original but it will not save because I need permission from the owner of the product (my guess Carenado). Hopefully they patch the H850xp soon because I wasted $50 on an aircraft that can’t climb more than 2,000 fpm under fl100-200 without stalling. 🙄

No need to modify the cfg or any other file to achieve the correct climb performance. Max N₁ is only limited at S.L. and the limit continuously increases with altitude.

E.g. at FL100 MCT = 98.6% N₁ and at FL200 = 99.2% N₁.  Keeping 94% all they way up is simply a bad advice as it noticeable reduces the available climb thrust.

Just got this during the recent sale.  Overall I really like it.

The original post for the climb modification is incorrect IMO.  A thrust scalar of 1.3 is far too much.  The climb performance even at full power is, however, a bit weak.  One reason for this is that the Hawker 850XP uses the TFE731-50BR engine which has up to 5000lbs of thrust, but  the stock aircraft cfg sets a thrust of 4750lbs.

Also, Carenado has a bad habit of increasing the induced drag scalar on many of their planes. On this plane they have increased it by 20% to 1.2.  This setting increases the drag with angle of attack, so when you're climbing the drag is increased.  There is no reason to set this above 1.0 in most circumstances.

My fix for poor climb performance:

1. Change the induced_drag_scalar to 1.0

2. Change the static_thrust to 5000

Hello captains,

Happy to see these updating threads.  BTW  can you help me find some more liveries por this bird? (sorry to swerve for a short stop on this topic)  I see no mutch options around, only 4 through avsim.....

BTW, im trying Dave´s mood and see....😎🍻

Happy Flying!
