But is there in-flight Wi-fi?...

In-flight Wi-Fi version coming later when i get the satellite send data correctly to the plane, and then optimize the signal.

Just kidding :D

Very nicely done! Love the cockpit, it's cozy! :) Is it just me or does she feel slightly underpowered?

Don't know if she's underpowered, but as Levi mentioned: at larger heights you have to adjust the mixture to prevent RPM from dropping.
Maybe that helps.

I'm not sure if it's under-powered or not, but all I can say is I used as many real data as I was able to find, especially for the engines. Some of those are:
- displacement
- maxhp
- cycles
- idlerpm
- maxrpm
- stroke
- bore
- cylinders
- bsfc (not used currently)
- compression-ratio

And of course, one of the most important things, the Max take-off weight, together with empty weight, payload and max fuel tanks capacity.

Also to make sure you have max thrust, you can print the thrust coefficient to visualize it more precisely:
Code: [Select]
this.log_inf(jsb['propulsion/engine[0]/thrust-coefficient']);
EDIT: Ah, I forgot to mention the data I found about propellers:
- diameter
- number of blades
- gear ratio
- p_factor

Cool! I apologize if it read as negative feedback. I had some trouble (with torque/rpm on max) getting the plane up to speed and climbing. It might have something to do with zero piloting skills from my side. :D

Still really enjoying it! :)

Negative feedback just pushes the limits a little further.  ;D

Also need to have in mind, that its a civ. plane whyte not a favoring thrust to weight ratio ...



... for cobras.  :D

Glad you like those fans :D It's better moving than static right?  :P

Also a very little update:

I just noticed that I saved the thumbnails at 1920x1080 resolution instead of 64x36. That slows down the spawning menu quite a lot (sorry about that ;D)
So I scaled them down and updated the main download link in the main post.

Here's an incremental update as well if you don't want to download it again: Mediafire


Thank you all for the feedback :)

Can I ask if you'd take a look at Ilyushin Il-14P and confirm what happens when it runs out of fuel ?
