QC plane crashes in mid air

Hi there. Fast planes like Carter's converted Me-163 Komet, FS France converted Me-262, Alphasim's He-162 Salamander, crash in mid air when I fly them in QC. Not in level flight, but always after some manoever. The red sign that appears says OVERSPEED. If I have the "aircraft respawn" box selected, the plane just stays fixed in mid air, completely blocked when I touch the controls. The Me-163 is the worst of them all crashing almost instantaneously after the slightest move of the stick. What explains this? Can anyone help me fixing this?

Cheers,

Zeke
 
I think....

...you're referring to the 'exploding jets' phenomenon common in CFS2.

Try the fix in the second box on this Fox Four page:

http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2kwfaq.htm

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Open the CFS2.CFG file (Main CFS2 directory) in Notepad.
Scroll down to the [FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif][REALISM][/FONT] section & change the [FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]StressDamage=True[/FONT] entry to [FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]StressDamage=False[/FONT]
Exit Notepad saving changes. That's it. No more Exploding Jets.[/FONT]
Jets frequently exceed the airframe stress limits set in CFS2 which where chosen for WWII prop aircraft.

Hope this helps. :wavey:
 
Exploding jets...

Thanks a lot Tango Romeo... Will give it a try. :wavey:
BTW, regarding the Carter's converted Me-163 Komet, do you (or anybody for that matter), have the same blue spot/stain I have on the left side of the Komet QC window?

Regards,

Zeke
 
I can't....

...help you with that one. I have no experience with this plane. :isadizzy:
