I have Tim Conrads MI-24 Cool

and I want to fix the top speed but don't know how.
I work at KGTU (Georgetown Texas) and we had a MI-24 stay with us for over two months Grin

and spent lots of time talking to the pilots and know the top speed should be around 200mph and Tims MI-24 will only do around 120, Is this something easy to fix or hard? Any help would be great

Thanks

Easy stuff Greg, open the aircraft.cfg file and look for [Reference Speeds] and modify max_indicated_speed = 120 to about 200, save and go fly Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Thanks Ozzy for your reply

I have tried to make it work but no luck Cry

Anything else I need to do other then change the max_indicated_speed to 208 Undecided

Here is what it looks like

[Reference Speeds]
flaps_up_stall_speed=0.0 //Knots True (KTAS)
full_flaps_stall_speed=0.0 //Knots True (KTAS)
cruise_speed=155 //Knots True (KTAS)
max_indicated_speed=208 //Red line (KIAS)

Greg,
Aircraft you can change the Thrust,Drag,Prop/Jet scholar and/or Weight a little at a time.Rotorcraft not too sure,maybe Engine Horsepower,inflow_vel_reference of the Main Rotor(more air, more lift).You could find an air/rotorcraft with close to the same speed and take a look at it's cfg file.
Good luck,
Ronnie
