Ricardo Schor 0 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I made a fly from SBCF to SBGL using aerosoft´s A 320-232 IAE and after that, with the same plane from FSLabs. Both with the same ZFW , TOW and clear skies.Aerosoft´s plane took 13´15´´ to get to FL300, whereas FSLabs took 16`10``. Is this an indication that aerosoft´s plane is overpowered or could it be that FSLabs´s is underpowered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Schor 0 Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 I used the same CI in both flyes.Does this imply the same engine ratings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs The Dude 6537 Posted April 22, 2017 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 22, 2017 No, the engines can be configured/bought with a different performance just like an 2.0l car engine can have different horse power if you chiptune it for example. The V2500 AS model for the A320 has 27000 pounds of thrust and is the B version. It could be that FSL models a lower thrust rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Schor 0 Posted April 23, 2017 Author Share Posted April 23, 2017 I just found the model FSLabs use. It is the IAE V2527-A5, which gives the same 27000 lb of thrust (Wikipedia) of the Aerosoft model ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted April 23, 2017 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 23, 2017 Have the wind conditions be the exact same in both flights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Schor 0 Posted April 23, 2017 Author Share Posted April 23, 2017 The flight conditions where the same, I used clear skyes in both flyes.The difference in behaviour was accentuated after FL200, where the aerosoft bus mantained a climb above 2000fpm whereas the FSLabs never exceeded 1800fpm.The initial conditions where ZFW = 57.6 tons and TOW = 62.3 tons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
