They have a newer FDE out for their Winglet-version 757, but I am not happy with it. It is very sluggish in all control axis. Warren, the
creator, says this accurately portrays a real 757's handling, and is realistic, but it's not enjoyable for me, so I'm still using the V1.
I found out where the problem was with the Aircraft.cfg. The empty weight SHOULD be about 136,500lbs. In their aircraft file, they have
the empty weight as 188,000lbs. 188,000lbs, however, is the maximum ZFW of the the extended range 757-200, so they had the ZFW
(the max weight of the plane without fuel) as the empty weight. Naturally that's why I couldn't put more than 54% fuel into the thing with a
load of passengers.
So I'm going to merge the visual model of the -200W with the FDE of the 200 and the result will be something very nice to fly!
