little problem with idle power (Read 120 times)

I just downloaded a freeware POSKY CRJ 200.

The bird is fantanstic but it has a little annoying problem: at idle the plane accelerates to 40 knots unless I hit the brakes from time to time during taxing.

No other plane does that.

It can't be my throttle since all other planes are doing fine and it seems that only this one is having a problem.

My guess is that the idle power is too high ... is there a way to reduce it? Manipulating the aircraft.cfg perhaps?

I generally tweak the aircraft.cfg successfully but I have never done something like this so I don't know if it's possible and I couldn't find much searching around.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, I myself have run into this problem on more occassions than one.

My solution to this is to scrap the damn thing and go get a different version. If the version you have is the ONLY ONE around, then you have to do the unthinkable and go edit the airfile!!! Roll Eyes

To do this, you'll need AirEd, which is by far the easiest prog to use when editing these dang things. Find it here.

The biggest problem is finding the right entry section to edit. There are loads of forums out there that will teach you all about editing airfiles (if you have the time and patience Tongue
