bigsky10 4 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I have the Twin Otter Extended V111 installed in FSX. Has been work pretty good other than there is no ability to do a cold dark start. I have noticed some throttle problems lately. I have throttles set with FSUIPC using 2 SAITEK throttle quadrants. My question is should I completely uninstall this version and go to my areosoft account and download the new V121 and install. I have been looking through the forum and can no really find if then new version is just for P3D or can be used in FSX. I this would not work should I re download V111 and install it to go back to original setting. I do fly the twin otter a lot and like the way it gets around. Thanks for you help.

bigsky10 4 Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 I installed the new V121 the other day and while I took a couple test flights in the 300 Wheeled, the 300 Tundra and the 100 Wheeled. I am not sure if there has been a change to the flight dynamics but I had a couple issues I don't know if correct of not. After take-off in the tundra I set climb speed to about 98 knts. After I got to about 3500 feet altitude I set power per procedures. Aircraft climb at 500 FPM. As can bee seen by the attached photo my settings were as follows: prop RPM was at 90%, GG RPM was set at 75%. FF was at about 200 lbs. Anything over 25 torque press put me in the yellow. I didn't have problem with the 100 (only one flight). First flight on the 300 Wheeled was OK but second leg had the same problem as tonight. I guess Not sure to try and reinstall or delete and go back to V111. I also found this file Aircraft.xml file in the Flight Simulator x files with the flight plans. I am not sure that is supposed to be there. ( C:\users\Dick\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\Aerosoft\AerosoftTwinOtterExtended/Aircraft.xml). The date modified was 5/29/2017. ( am sure it was not there when I had the V111 installed.

MarkHurst 173 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Density altitude is a factor (so we'd need to know the outside air temperature). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsky10 4 Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 Thanks MarkHurst. I went back last night and found some old posts in the forum and found that out. It was pretty warm temperatures last night when I was flying. I did notice when I got up to cruise alt temps were cooler and T5 backed off so I could readjust engine settings. Air speed does come up to 155 to 165 knts so I guess I will watch and fly accordingly. Thanks for the input. I am always learning thing every time I fly. The help you knowledgeable guys give on the forum is great. I thought it might just be FSX. I am looking at P3D or X plane but not sure my computer will run them. I am looking at new machines but to get recommended system it is more $ than I can pay now. I am trying to find middle of the road computer to do the job. I do like your home built cockpit for sure. I have watched a number of your videos. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
