[Solved]Strange Flaps penalty

[Joeflyer]

I never had the flaps issue with the Majestic Q400, but I have not used the Q400 in quite some time. Maybe it's time to get reacquainted with it
At any rate, some addon aircraft are a bit finicky when it comes to flap blow out speeds,etc. If you know what you are doing, you can go into the aircraft .cfg file and set the damage and blow out speeds a bit higher, save the .cfg with the new numbers and do a test flight. Of course make a back up of the original aircraft .cfg first. Here's the Majestic Q400 flaps information as an example:

[Flaps.0]
type= 1
span-outboard= 0.500
extending-time= 5.000
system_type= 0
damaging-speed= 250.000
blowout-speed= 300.000

Depending on the weight of the aircraft and using flaps 5 for takeoff, 160 knots retraction seems a bit high anyway even at max weight above or below 20C outside air temperature. If Dreamwings has any documentation that comes with the software, it would be beneficial for you to review the takeoff and flap retraction tables. At 64,000 lbs, flap retraction for 5 degrees flaps is around 146 knots.
