• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    How to make something really light weight go fast...?

    Let me clarify it for you, The original poster posed the question, "I have tried in the past to make a plane 'ultra light weight' and as soon as I accellerate, it flies apart. What might I be doing wrong? " To answer it, I suggested that exceeding the G limit would cause it to fly apart...

    Question about turn rate

    Turn rates are not constant. They increase with height. Things that have to be correct, 1. Aircraft weight 2. Aircraft Power 3. Parasite drag 4. Induced drag ( span, area, Oswald efficiency and scalar set to 1 ) 5. Maximum lift coefficient 6. Make sure you can get max lift ( AoA ) at...

    How to make something really light weight go fast...?

    Increase the G limit by a lot. A normal cessna 172 might be making say 2000 lbs at 1 G. If it weighs 5 lbs and is making 2000 lbs of lift, that's 400G

    P3D v4 Drag in relation to weight

    The apparent exaggeration comes from misinterpreting the Cm vs AoA table. It is for the whole airplane, not just the wing. 99% of all flight models for this platform suffer from this. You can absolutely use real weight and balance. My procedure goes like this, Everything in the...
