Taxi thrust

Featured Replies

Maybe this is an issue with my throttle setup, but I can never seem to find the right amount of power when taxiing with the FA50. It takes very little movement of the throttle to go from idle to 50-60% N1 (The aircraft wont even move if I do not advance the throttle to this range anyway). Is there a setting I can change or something or is this just how the aircraft is supposed to behave on the ground?

Fully loaded, 50% N1 might be close to right to get movement.  I don't recall using that much N1, but it's been a long time since I flew fully laden.

Lately I have been flying lightly-loaded and I'm only using about 30-35% N1 to get going.

I do not know how the real aircraft behaves on the ground.  If you own FSUIPC you might be able to tweak the throttle curve a bit, but I've never tried it.  I hope this response isn't too late, but I saw your post and figured I'd mention my experiences.

I appreciate the feedback thanks. This could also be P3D's ground friction too. We'll see if LM gets that fixed in v5.
