the thing is strange low altitude, full power, all of a sudden the speed goes down to 50, i have also the gear horn ringing and telling me to put down gears but my speed is very high is not 50....crazy bug, then all of a sudden you gain altitude and it start showing the right speed on thehud....any idea?!? is a bug i think

Any chance you forgot the pitot  heat?

Usual cause would be low air temperatures and a frozen pitot tube that caused the air speed indictor to stop working.

Switching on the Pitot heat should stop/fix the issue.

Note that DCS currently models the air as damp even in clear/dry skies.

To know for certain I'd need to see a replay track.
