• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Hi Jorge,
We have had the Douglas M2 in 4 parts, of which Part 01 is the complete aircraft.
How different is the new completed Part V?
Does it replace the older Part 01?
 
Robin,

Nacho just finished what I had started. He completed the aircraft and uploaded a well-done, finished product that can be enjoyed by the community by building on the "base" which I had provided for everyone.

He just continued with the "numbering" at "V" since it was the next one, that's all.

Just download and drop into your aircraft folder and you should be ready to fly.

If the parameters in the "aircraft.cfg" are the same, just remember to "crack" the throttle when you are starting the engine. When the RPM settles, then you can pull back to idle. Otherwise the engine won't "catch" and will stop. The Northrop Alpha I did a while back does the same thing.

This seems to be the same with others I've updated as well, not just the Alpha.

From my own experience from my first flights when I learned how to fly, this was something that was normal on GA aircraft. Not sure if it was normal back then with these larger engines, but it would not surprise me. Then again, I've been wrong in the past! ;)

Can't wait to test it out in PW this weekend! :encouragement:
