Prop Reverse Question

[burcham8]

Guys -

Didn't the Caribou have reversible props? If so, what can I do to the following lines to add them:

prop_reverse_available= 0.000
minimum_on_ground_beta= 0.000
minimum_reverse_beta= 0.000

Thanks!

Hi,

The Caribou didn't originally have reversible props, but most were apparently fitted with them later.

www.c-7acaribou.com/news/vo1i22.pdf Page 18

Possible changes needed (from the DC-6B, old values after the //):

prop_reverse_available=1 //0
min_rpm_for_feather=700.0
beta_feather=-64 //96.0
power_absorbed_cf=0.1 //0.9
minimum_on_ground_beta=1 //15.0
minimum_reverse_beta=-14 //0

Hope this helps,

THANKS!!
