Those with the C-27J...flight dynamics question

[mfaulisi]

Are you able to climb/cruise past 20,000 feet without stalling?  It seems like the flight dynamics are screwed up.  Airspeed will slowly bleed off and stall around 22,000 and I can't maintain altitude past 20,000 at all.  I never really thought anything of it because I was doing short hops (cruising low < 20,000) until I read the published service ceiling is 30,000 feet and I can't make it past 2/3 of that no matter the payload or fuel conditions.   :-?

I tried to climb to 20,000 ft. with almost full tanks. This is the result. Altitude 16701 ft., Airspeed 129 knots, full power.

I have almost the exact same screenshot haha.  I already did, I think David just got back from surgery because he just started posting again.  We'll see if he replies tomorrow.

I've been having the same problem, Maybe because there's no FMC, so no VNAV to keep the aircraft flying

I wish it had a functioning FMC, that'd be sweet
