Overspeed

(1/4) > >>

EHM-1714 João:
I keep getting the overspeed penalty while flying online on IVAO with ProPilot. It's really getting on my nerves since there's nothing I can do! IVAO's weather update is the only one to blame for this... Is there any way to change the way ProPilot understands this situation?

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi João,

Errr, it's very strange. Even today I made 8h trip flight on IVAO and it didn't happened with me :o ... Still I have activeSky 6 ... maybe it's because of that ...

Well, actually we can't do nothing mate :( ... The overspeed is given when your flight simulator tells via FSUIPC that you got an overspeed situation. So, our hands are tied here ...

Olá Bruno,

Do you have any suggestion? I've already got wind smoothing activated on IVAP...

Cheers,
João

EHM-1651 Christian:
You if you have the registered version of FSUIPC installed you have the possibilty to limit wind changes in increments of a certain number of knots and degrees of wind directions per second. This will cure the problem but you will need the registred version of FSUIPC.

EHM-1570 Bruce:
I have suggested a solution to this problem previously. While adjusting the settings in FSUIPC with regard to the wind changes, this will not completely remove the problem. While FSUICP will control the rate at which the wind alters, if you turn your aircraft into a strong head wind, your airspeed will increase, this is a function of the change of direction by your aircraft and not a change in the wind speed or direction , so FSUIPC will not see a change in the wind speed. A lot of autothrottles do not react quickly enough to compensate for this change, and you get the overspeed, If you do not fly any closer than about 20Kts to the overspeed Bar/markers, this should overcome the problem, this is how I fly all my flights, and I cannot remember the last time I got an overspeed penalty.
