how do i slow down the engine idle?

[firemonte007]

I have the P-82 found here ...http://www.simviation.com/members/fs2004vintage71.htm

its a great AC but its engine idle is set way too high. How do i lower it to a normal idle setting?

thanks for all those who reply

*edit* I run FSX

Try checking the .cfg, might be something in there.

The problem appears to be a strange mixture of elements used in  the aircraft.

The controls and gauges are for a single piston engine aircraft, while the installed engines are jet turbines.  

As it is now basically a turbine drive prop, it exibits the fast idle creep at idle. Being a jet turbine it apparently does not respond to the low idle setting of turboprop engines.  For now you could use reverse thrust (F2 key) to stop the creeping.

The RPM gauge is pegged at idle as it is probably reading the shaft RPM of the turbine..

Unless someone has already done it, this aircraft really needs to be 'rebuilt' using the Allison or R-R Merlin engines of the P51, with appropriate gauges and controls.

Adjust the needle valve on the carb?

Isn't the P-82 a piston engine plane ?

Edit:  oops.. Dave already pointed that out... Yes.. the aircraft.cfg and air files need to be redone..
