[MSFS2024] Cessna 172 Skyhawk

typically the cruise speed vary’s based upon the Barometric Altitude, the Outside Airtemp and the desired performance

Typically for 6K at standard temp and pressure at ~65% bhp, you’re looking around 114kts at 2500 RPM with a fuel burn rate of 9.0 gal/hr (the 172S model)

the R model (Same Altitude and performance) 109kts at 2171 RPM, fuel burn of 7.47 gal/hr

Edit, pages 5-17 of the POH does denote cruise preformances

I wish we could take the wheel pants off.

For who want to avoid the tendency to roll to the left in the Cessna 172 in MSFS2024, even though it doesn’t have aileron trim, we can use it like if the plane had it.

Don’t know if you guys have the same issue but when I complete the preflight checklist and I turn on the master ALT/BAT and then I turn on the Avionics swirtches and turn them off after fan noise check, whenever you start them again in the starting engine procedure, the tachometer and the vertical speed indicator would not work.

Yup i installed it last week, been flying it a bunch. Glad someone found out how to do it!

I don’t understand why this is not more common on MSFS202 yet, with the modular nature of MSFS2024, it should be easier to MOD the aircraft, add different type of avionics, wheel, propeller…I think like bagoluu did on MSFS2020, someone should just take the 172 and make a great aircraft with it, WBsim maybe?

Also, 100% agree.. issue started about 3 years into 2020 version, and has laways been present in 2024 model.

With MSFS having over *12 Million Players, isn’t it surprising that NOBODY has “taken the C172 and made it great” . ? Maybe it’s not that easy ??

Wb-Sim did that for the 2020 version, maybe it’s someone else’s turn to do that for the 2024 version.*

Bugalu is working on an M and then an N model, but not I’m sure if they are just skins or whether they will be changing the flight models to match those models.

172M and N will be standalone mods, independant from default 172 versions

Also, I don’t build for 2024 yet : that’s way too much work and problems for me…

surprisingly, if you bind aileron trim controls, they work in the analog 172 in 2024. Can be flown hands off for a lonnnnng while if u dial in the aileron trim. (i know it doesn’t have it IRL, but it also doesn’t need this nudge often irl either so.. yeah)
