I kinda fixed the APU :)

Was able to get a sustained speed of around mach 2.13 (rounded down) with both engines. Seems to function fine with a few tweaks! Just not the old speed, but still very fast!
Arelium 20 Apr @ 10:11am 
With just the hyperdrive, mach 2.12, although it seems to average around 2.09

I was able to get up to mach 0.839, with it rising but very slowly At higher speeds, you can turn off the trim..
Arelium 20 Apr @ 10:06am 
Oh also, the same issue also exsist for normal engine. However, setting a trim of 1 at full throt. seems to fix it for this. I will not go through every possible throttle, just adjust trim by 0.01 and check if vertical speed is +, or -. You would want it to be 0, or near 0 in a positive. The vertical speed gauge is under the altitude gauge, which is to the right of the artifical horizon, which if you're blind, is in the center of the dashboard, under the glass.

Hyperdrive works fine at full throt. as of now, although you will need to turn on alt-hold and set a trim as the plane goes down quite drasticly. I tried crusing with alt-hold on and near-perfect, raised artifical horizon but it ended up diving into the water (I did not do any further keys after adjusting a near-perfect, raised horizon)

1.75 on front, 1 on back wheels seems to work. Take off at around 4 throt.. Safe to cruise at 5, testing hyperdrive.
Arelium 20 Apr @ 9:54am 
The fire can be avoided by not turning on full throt. However, due to changes in wheel hitboxes, the vehicle is now too low and WILL hit the ground, causing a nose-fire. This possibly can be fixed with larger wheels. I'll be experimenting with different settings, to try to find fixes. I will NOT re-upload this, but say what fixes works for what.

the game mechanics have changed ever since i uploaded this, engine cooling, drag, etc. so now it doesnt work anymore.
