    Hi,
    I already switched to Prepar3d soon after availability, now on Version 5.2, very, very satisfied. However, because of the unsurpassed scenery-quality I also installed the new MSFS. Now, depending on the type of flying and aircraft to use I switch between P3D and MSFS. enyoing the goodies of both worlds. So, also looking forward to AH's MSFS version of C-47.

    Hi, I have a question for DC specialists .

    When I use
    superchargers and 2-stage blower controls (on Hi position during cruise fligh) after about 20-25 minutes in flight the engine's power drops sharply.
    I was using settings about 30 MP and 23 RPM and Hi Blow at 14.000 ft, cruise flight. After 20 Minutes it stopped to work.
    I've noticed this a couple of times already, regardless of the settings. PSI is ok, all the rest of the indicators are in the green position, mixture controls on Auto Lean position (cruise flight). So there should hardly be a reason for this power drop and inaction of superchargers but maybe I don't know something, I missed something.

    Any idea
    why is this happening, did you find solution or its a kind of issue?

    First thing that jumps to my mind is the carburetors are icing.

    It could be but it was ON and locked with good temperatures on green fields (I didn't write it before).

    Thx for this skin, installed it but it crashed my P3Dv5 (each time). Maybe wrong entry in aircraft cfg?

    Edit.
    Ok I found a reason of CTD in P3Dv5, you used SPACE in the entry atc_id.



    The best way is to use reg. number, not the name with space . So this works for me in v5:
    atc_id=N777YA
    Unfortunately, there is a problem with the textures on the engines covers (maybe during version 1.0 to 1.1 AH changed here something, from 1.2 to 1.3 is the same):



    can You do update textures for v5? This skin is really nice with his weathered cockpit!

    The more I fly the AH DC-3 and C-47, the more addicted I get. This airplane is awesome....

    I am loving the DC-3 and C-47.

    Can't seem to pull myself away from them.

    But that is not a surprise, knowing that the DC-3 is my all-time favorite airplane, and AH did an amazing job with their rendition.

    I agree. I was so used to Manfred's C-47 that I never gave this one an honest try. I like them both for different reasons.

    AH DC-3 Delta Livery

    The Delta Livery in P3D V5.3 is mostly dark with red lettering on the wings that are not DELTA, Anyone else experience that? (P3D V5.3

    Latest Version DC3 for P3D V5

    Is this the latest version that was released as freeware at ORBX for P3D V5?

  11. #436
    I checked it for you, I have "payware" the last version, yes the same. Black fuselage on DELTA skin BUT as you can see - wings have BEA name, so looks like its a wrong aircraft.cfg entry for this texture.

    That's what I thought, Thanks for checking.

    Gray, you asked me on PM but I reply it here because I had some questions about this my skin also on PM too from the others.
    Ok, Today I checked and I did small fixes and my textures work again ok with the last version of AH DC-3 (yep I can confirm, AH did fix for wrong read by model of cowling textures, now its ok like on the screenshot), I'll upload it soon :





    Maybe someone can check this sinking of the model into the ground, 1/5 of the tire is underground. It wasn't like that before, unfortunately the last patch broke something here.

    Yes, I'm seeing the same thing. Looks like it is missing a bunch of textures and the ones that are there are actually from the BEA livery.

    Fortunately there are lots of other schemes to choose from.

    I put more air into the tires - Do they look better YoYo?

    EDIT:

    I let a little bit of of air out of the tires based on looking at real DC-3 tires.


    Real DC-3 tire profile


    I tried to match with the real DC-3 tire profile in P3D V5+

    Oh nice! Can you share your settings for this for aircraft.cfg?

    Sure,

    If you want more air in tires like I did in #441 (1st post) use the following:

    [contact_points]
    point.0=1, -55.35, 0.0, -2.54, 1200.0, 0, 0.60, 180.0, 0.200, 2.5, 0.695, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0
    point.1=1, -18.55, -9.25, -10.65, 1600.0, 1, 1.875, 0.0, 0.704, 2.5, 0.682, 7.0, 9.0, 7.0, 166.0, 166.0
    point.2=1, -18.55, 9.25, -10.65, 1600.0, 2, 1.875, 0.0, 0.704, 2.5, 0.682, 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 166.0, 166.0

    If you want tires to look like my second post #442 (flatter looking) use:

    [contact_points]
    point.0=1, -55.35, 0.0, -2.54, 1200.0, 0, 0.60, 180.0, 0.200, 2.5, 0.695, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0
    point.1=1, -18.55, -9.25, -10.45, 1600.0, 1, 1.875, 0.0, 0.704, 2.5, 0.682, 7.0, 9.0, 7.0, 166.0, 166.0
    point.2=1, -18.55, 9.25, -10.45, 1600.0, 2, 1.875, 0.0, 0.704, 2.5, 0.682, 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 166.0, 166.0


    I like the 10.45 setting best as the tires closer resemble the ones in the photo of the real DC-3 I provided in my post #442

    And the real one:
    So where in this line of stuff did you use the 1.60? Your tire pressure state looks almost like what I used but with different values.

    Where is that Delta cowling fix?
