more power?

Post by R-2800-59 »

Dear community,

bush flying in PNG is hard on every airplane, most of the airports are located above 3000ft. Especially with the cub there is a great struggle to get enough power for even a shallow climb, most of the times I circle for decades until I manage to slip over the treetops.

I read that our variant is equipped with a 65hp engine although the real thing got the option for a 85hp version. This would greatly enhance performance particularly of the tundra and floats variant.

Is there any tweak to achieve such power increase?

Already seen the ambient pressure "cheat", shouldn't work with AS16 real weather.


Thanks in advance!

I know that the engine runs outside FSX with Accusim but I've wondered if increasing the HP in the aircraft config file would change anything. I don't know if that's like a base figure and Accusim goes from there or if it's irrelevant.
