I removed then installed my FSX onto a SSD to explore the capabilities of it verses a VelociRaptor. When I went to make the first, and subsequent flight, I noticed that it required around 40% to 50% thrust to taxi at a weight of around 194,000. With the prior instillation it only need to apply about 25% to 30% thrust to taxi. Does it sound like the CS 727 installed incorrectly? I should also mention this is the only plane that is demonstrating this and I did update the static thrust to 17,400.



The CS 727 has weak thrust. You can change it is the aircraft.cfg folder from 15500 over 17400.


[TurbineEngineData]
fuel_flow_gain= 0.003
inlet_area= 18.000
rated_N2_rpm= 29920.000
static_thrust=17400       //15500
afterburner_available= 0
reverser_available= 1
ThrustSpecificFuelConsumption = 1
AfterBurnThrustSpecificFuelConsumption = 0

I did this for all the 727 models.
