Cessna 182

can anyone tell me how to switch the os 2 stroke to a 4 stroke? .... uprating the size to 140 would be perfect. Iam building a cm pro cessna 182 and would like to make my first few flights on 3.5.

All ideas welcome.

John.

The Cessna does not have any 3D engines modeled and/or showing, so it's a simple matter of changing the torque generator and sound profile selection under the engine's settings.

What the heck is a torque generator?

A "Torque Generator" is synomonous with engine, but it is only one property of said engine. It represents the power curve developed by the engine.

First make sure you have advanced properties turned on in the aircraft editor, then you'll be able to see and change all the values.

JohnB, I made a CMP 140 version last year. Here it is from the old swap pages:

A friend bought one of those.

Best Cessna ARF I've ever seen!

The detailing on the fuselage & wing panels is awesome.

My friend added landing, navigation and beacon lights.

In the air you cannot tell it's a model plane.

So much so that it fooled a real pilot flying above our field, who must have thought it was a full sized craft further away than he thought.

He was flying a 152 far too low, looking for landmarks, and when he saw the CMP Cessna he thought it was the real deal.
