Re: VIckers Vanguard Merchantman Throttles ?

Fraser:

The new file above did the job. I made a beautiful flight from Chicago to Nashville in the Vanguard and had no ground or flight idle chatter. Thanks so much for spending time to sort this out...great plane !

Re: VIckers Vanguard Merchantman Throttles ?

Well folks ...I tried again making sure the gust locks are off and still I get the chatter at ground idle and flight idle. I'm using the CH Products throttle quadrant. Does it look like there is any way to fix the chatter on this great plane or am I out of luck ?

Hi all I've downloaded the Bristol Superfreighter 170 and am having real trouble taking off. It takes forever to build up speed down the runway and then can hardly lift off the runway. I reduced the payload and fuel to get under the gross weight but still itnis really sluggish. Any ideas please ? Ma...
