Hello Ivan,
Hmmmm... Interesting, thanks very much for your comments.
Possibly itīs the Beckwith Gauge programmed for a slightly different CPU - i.e. Pentium, and it reacts differently to the AMD CuadCore that I have, or maybe itīs Windows XP instead of Windows 98. Iīll try it in the Pentium 4 Laptop here with Win98 as soon as I have time to rig it up.
I found that implementing any kind of Emergency Power to use with Key F10 does have its advantages: I gives 6 more HP for Meth-Alcohol and Water Injection, and 7 for WEP. So now the speed I get at 15000 ft is 314 or 315 mph if the SL max. is at 284 mph, and 320 mph if the SL max. is 290 or 289 mph. I chose Water Injection because it doesnīt ruin the engine - the water-cooling factor seems to be beneficial.
To possibly widen the performance vs. altitude difference range, I lowered the friction and torque even more, to .39 and .585 again, but it didnīt get any better, not even going down as far as .30 with friction and 0.557 with torque.
I even tried fiddling the Induced Drag vs. Zero Lift Drag even more - i.e. ID at over 7000 and 0LD at about 60, but there was no change either. Possibly Iīll go for 290 mph at SL and 320 mph with Water Injection.
Iīll see... Thanks again!
Cheers,
Aleatorylamp
