Hi

Does anyone here know to edit the float point for the FSX Beech 18?



It looks like someone got a little to close to a moos or somthing.

whitch of the number lines do I need to chang?

[contact_points]
max_number_of_points = 12
point.0 = 1,

the first number after the = sign is the class
in your case I notice a lot of Longitudinal Position and no Lateral Position at all it is just the opposite in the beaver. I find that a little strange but by far I am no expert when it comes to contact points. 8-)

Thank.

I thought that the       //3  Vertical Position            (feet)
was the number to work with, but it made no differens. So I tried coying and pasting the line 3 that did nothing. So I copyed the hole contact pints form the def beaver that mad the B18 jump all over the place. So I will keep working at it for now.

Thanks dave3cu.......

That did it. Here are the numbers if anyone els flys the Beech 18 by Milton Shupe

point.4=4,

[crazyh]

Great. I Like the D-18 and fly the wheeled one. Got the amph and thought she was going to sink! This will make it much nicer. I did up grade my radios though.

[Microsoft Corporation]

Awesome!  This is my favorite AC and will put this info to good use- tonite!!

Has anone who used the

[dave3cu]

I found the same thing. Just need a little adjust.

These get rid of the sparks and it floats about the same as in FS9.

point.4=4,

[Keep It Simple]

Yes, those numbers work.
