Sad Not too impressed with this plane Undecided

Take #2 on the take off was A-OK she got off the ground, but she was still way too slow for take off air speed. The attempt was at Mc.Guire AFB with the extended length runway. With full thrust the B1b reached only 135 knots by the time it reached the end of the runway and didn't get off the ground until about 200 knots in the feild beyond the runway! Angry! Then I noticed 2 issues! Shocked

1. The engine thrust guage showed that at full thrust, only engine # 4 was receiving full power, Engine 1 and 3 were getting 3/4 of power and Engine #2 was getting a little under 3/4 of power.  Undecided. Something is wrong with the engines receiving full power.

2. The Rear landing gears weren't retracting on gears up command  Shocked! This contributed to the drag after take off. Only the front landing gear was responding to the gear up and down commands  ???! What is going on here.

Is anyoneelse getting this same issue Cry

Hey Mav,

Real sorry to hear you have been experiencing problems.
Where di you manage to download the original files from in the end?
I am very interested in your gear difficulties as I'm using the downloadable version with the force feedback fix and all is functioning as it should be.

I dowloaded the first part of the plane without the fix at AVSIM.com.

Then I got the upgrade feedback patch at the home website for the b1b.

I picked the aircraft up at I3Ds site the day it was released. My undercarriage is fine, but not having an FFstick, I haven't used the patch.
