Yo it takes like over 6 seconds for propeller engines to get to maximum power. That’s absolutely ridiculous. In real life, most GA planes take 1 second max.
In fact, the propeller engines are so slow in SP that they’re dangerous, especially in STOL situations where quick blips of power are crucial. Also, if you’re going kinda slow and want to go around, well, you’re dead basically.
The spool up times for prop engines are so slow that they match spool up times of WWII jet engines. It’s stupid.
i was playing sp and making some props planes, and the key is 'scale'.HorsePower only affected by scale, because the more it big, the more speed you gain.So,stop complaining and gives 'em support
IMO SP needs a overhaul with it's powerplants (no pun intended), and make them like SR2 where they are completely customizable.
Actually, I tried I again, and it worked! Yay thank you so much! @asteroidbook345
Prop spool up is too slow, jet spool up is too fast
Realism 100
It doesn’t increase the spool up speed @asteroidbook345 @Chancey21
big facts
You can set high HP and low input by different multiples of 10 to get the same top speed and power but more acceleration @jamesPLANESii @asteroidbook345
There’s no input for props @asteroidbook345
Yeah lol @MrVaultech
Yeah I know about jet engines @TrislandianAlliance
You can’t adjust the spool up time using XML @freedompilot98
Im not sure how you would be able to make it spool faster but there's a way if you will find it usefull to alter the spool up time of a jet engine instead, go into inputController and see max, set the numbers to: 0.25, then find engine power multiplier thing and raise that up to 4 or more, this way the engine spool really quick (even faster at 0.125 and 8) and it uses less fuel
And also car engines, it would be cool to choose the time it takes to go 0-100kmh / 0-60mph
They need to be fined for the dangerous props
Not hate towards the busy devs or the question in general, but it took something like a year just for them to increase the maximum size of fuselage blocks from 5 to 10, doubt they'd get around for something like tweaking the engines in a decent time, especially now.
Yeah :/ @Adityo0502
@jamesPLANESii Well then, nothing else that can be done.
yes @Gameboi14
@jamesPLANESii -dge
Okie @Gameboi14
Should I finish the last word for you?
@Adityo0502 For me it's still about 6 seconds
Okay, so a prop at 200hp with low spool up time should look like this:
Fixed Pitch
neutral pitch : 60 - 70%
Pitch range : 100%
Though the rate of acceleration isnt good, it doesnt have a spool up time
@jamesPLANESii
It’s a Cessna 180, it has an empty weight of 1535 lbs, a max takeoff weight of 2800 lbs, and at max takeoff weight it’s rate of climb is 1090ft/min. And yes it’s a T1000. I’ve set it to +40% fixed pitch. @Adityo0502
@jamesPLANESii How much does the plane weigh? and is it a T1000?
