Kodiak Quest

[sidler]

I'm loving this aircraft. I fly mostly the float version. Does anyone know the secret of coming to a stop after landing on water? I have tried F1/F2, feathered the prop, reversed the prop which puts on it's tail, nothing shot of killing the engine seems to work. Any help would much appreciated!

This link will take you to a brief tutorial on handling turboprop aircraft.

Working from memory: Find the long Kodiak thread in this forum. I think there was a config tweek that helps. One thing I've found is the pull the stick all the way back until almost a full stop.

Hey Sidler,


Make sure you have Build 2.3. Check your aircraft config file to see which build you have. If you have an older build, request a download from who you purchased it from.

After touch down, Prop lever (blue) should be to half setting or less, and red condition lever should also be at 50% power. Below 40% and the turbine will stall out.

I dont know why she does that in FSX. In FS2004, its perfectly fine, but in FSX, she tries to go into taxiing 'fast'...

Look at this one on youtube:
Navigate to 1:08 in the vid and you'll see that turbo beaver landing :ernae:
I'm not sure but it might have an upgraded engine and I not sure too or you can do this in FS
