Hi everybody
I do have one issue with prop planes. I’m gonna admit they’re converted freeware FSX models by me, so someone could say it’s my problem since they’re not part of the game but they worked perfectly until last update or maybe update before. I did not fly with them this month. I was on vacation. It’s affecting only prop planes. Affected planes starts to spin and fly itself from the beginning. Even before i can press yellow button at the start. RPM is always around 150000 RPM and fuel tank is chug out in seconds. Plane mostly spins to the left and flies upward into air. Doesn’t matter if i have fuel or not. Sometime when really high screen turns black and the game is bugged and when i turn back to menu hangar is invisible and only space with starts is showing and then game often crash. I have some jet planes converted and they are fine so I suspect that those last updates changes something about rpm on prop planes. Planes maybe acting weird since plane have excess of rpm and momentum on prop. That’s why it spins to the left. I wonder what they could have changed that the planes started behaving like this. I will be happy for any advice and help. Two aircraft that are affected are my favorite.
Check the “Flight Model” setting. Ported FSX aircraft will not fly correctly under MODERN and LEGACY must be selected for those. Just remember to set it back to modern before trying to fly and MSFS specific aircraft.
Tried it. But no change. It worked before on both flight models anyway.
I now tried to copy paste engines cfg and flight model cfg from different prop plane that is fine and the converted plane was still acting weird. I don’t get why only single prop planes are affected. I have converted B-25 and the plane flies just fine.
Hi @manwithkatana!
Since you are using aircraft that is not default to MSFS, I’ve moved your topic into #third-party-addon-discussion:aircraft for assistance.
You can also get help for development in the #sdk-discussion:aircraft category.
The #bugs-and-issues category of the forum is for the base or default content only of MSFS.
Thank you!
It’s the air file, use the airfile editor and remove anything to do with the engine and fuel tanks that has “unused” or “obsolete”

The second last patch did it
It did it to heaps of my conversions and I had
to iron them out!
good luck

I deleted all obsolete fuel and engine parts and it really helped. Plane is flying happily as before. Me too, of course. You, sir, have my admiration. Thank you very much.
