oscillations with overspeed

Postby Dougx » Thu Jan 20, 2005 8:39 pm

One of my favorite a/c is the AN225. I try to watch my speed
but sometimes especially during descent I go overspeed. The
plane will start bouncing it seems to be very sensitive in this regard. Anyone know of an entry or two in .cfg or air file that will make the plane a little less suseptable to doing this. I have noticed that altitude is a variable for the effect.

Some of mine to that too....best remedy, dont go overspeed on descent, cut the throttle back...No need to change anything in the cfg file  ;D

Hi
Give the empty_weight_pitch_MOI= entry in the aircraft.cfg a bit more,try raising it by a 100 at a time.To much and she will feel heavy on forward/back stick.

...best thing I ever did was learn to get the right speed for the weight....it solved an awful lot of problems especially when landing the biggies...commoner ;)

Thanks for the help guys, it was not a big problem but something I wanted to resolve if possible. AuMav, your empty MOI suggestion was spot on. The 225 is a little less sensitive now. This is what I was looking for, thanks.  Doug
