The one where in multplayer you put your gear up but for everyone outside it's still down. If it's just visual that's fine but if not and the gear is down when it says it's up would induce drag causing the aircraft to not fly as fast. There's a thread on it in this forum.

rgr. Also do you think the gear bug could be a factor?

We've found this problem too. I wondered if the gear is actually up or down? If it's shown as up but is in fact down could that be causing drag problems?

Every time I tried putting the mixture to rich the engine just cut out. on the ground and in the air.

Cool I shall give it a try! Thanks!

Yeah. tbh I never got into what it was. I can't bind that prop lever to anything anyway, but maybe it does if you turn into a slider. I've got some sliders on one of my peripherals that i use in the Hornet and use for Prop levers in the Mosquito.

Thanks for the engagement chaps it's all very useful, and goes to show the huge discrepancies going on with this aircraft. The slider thing for the prop lever is interesting and I will certainly give it a go! And yes mentioning heights these are being tested at would be useful I think.

I think we were in trim yeah, tricky though that is.

UPDATE: Just had another flight with my friend and for control purposes we had exactlly the same controls set at the same heights on the same server. He was getting 120kts in the climb at 1000ft per min I was getting 180. We climbed to 20,000 it didn't fly above 210kts Auto rich Mixture, full blower, no cowl. 2,500rpm on the prop. we both stabilised at ~210kts.

That's interest cheers, but there does seem to be quite a lot of varying info out there! I managed to get about 227 running prop 2,500 rpm Cowl open about 15% Oil and intercooler closed with the mixture lever half way down. I tried the blower but I kept getting a hot carb warning.

That's interesting as we were only getting 180. What settings were you flying with?

Kovacs thanks let me know!

The knots versus mph isn't relevant to this issue but yes good to know.

I've been flying with some friends and there seems to be strange power issues going. In a hot start aircraft nd in a cold start we weren't getting more than 170mph. In the instant action free flight the Corsair is doing 260 mph. Nothing we did in multiplayer seemed to help us speed up. Not seen any other mention of this so maybe it's something we've collectively done/not done?

Yes three of us have experienced this.
