Flaps penalty - copilotswen - 04-05-2010
Well, I got the flaps penalty, but I'm sure I used flaps on take off. And for some airplanes it's not necessary to use flaps on take off (C172).
So, how can I fix this problem or turn off the penalty? It's really annoying me.
Regards, Swen.

Question: I have always flaps penalties ?
Answer: FsPassengers need at least one notch of flaps at take-off (many aircraft need between 1 or 3 notch of flaps at take-
off in reality) and at least one notch at landing, the check is performed just after take-off below 200 feet and just after landing.
Things to remember is : set before take off at least one notch and keep them until 200 feet and before landing at least one notch.
On some rare aircraft as the Cessna 172 flap at take-off is not an obligation to workaround FsP penalties either you set just one notch
before take-off either you can disable this penalty. Browse to Fs2004 folder than open the file FsPassengers/config/more_option.cfg with
notepad and edit this line as below:
DisableFlapCheck =1; // disable flap not set penalty
if you might have more penalty's :
Question : I have unfair penalties how can I disable them ?
Answer : First question yourself: are those penalty really unfair ?... many time it may appear that you simply forgot an essential things or simply don't know some basic rules as the taxi speed limit, fuel limit etc. etc. Also if you get overspeed penalty it's often because your weather addon is not set properly and give instant (and unrealistic) burst of wind. Think twice and read or ask perhaps in the forum before disabling some penalty.
Anyway if you find a penalty really unfair you can disable a lot of them editing the file 'more_option.cfg' with notepad.
Browse to your Fs2004 folder and open the file 'FsPassengers/config/more_option.cfg' with notepad.
Using this file you can disable for example:
'250kts speed below 10'000 ft penalty'
'disable the roll or landing outside landing strip penalty'
'disable gear speed penalty'
'disable flap speed penalty'
'disable overspeed penalty'
'disable G penalty'
'disable bank penalty'
'disable reverse thrust less than 60kts penalty'
'DisableDoorCheck'
'DisableFlapCheck'
'DisableTimeAccelerationCheck'
'DisableMaxPowerPenaltyWithBrake'
(for the C172 and other planes in this cat. it's sometimes necesary to use flaps to get faster lift . ex. taking off on a soaked grass strip )

Thanks, but when I have more_optiom.cfg in notepad, I just delete for example DisableFlapSpeedLimit =0; and save?
Re: Flaps penalty - whiskey-zulu - 05-05-2010
No, do not delete the line, change the "0" to a "1" and save.
