Mooney Bravo: Mooney Madness with engine fire by Spike 2012.

Before I started this I didn’t know anything about xml or even how to edit things for FS2004. Thus I spent hours makeing sure everything worked correctly.

I’m a fan of many aircraft one of which is the Mooney Bravo. I fly it often so decided to change a few things to my liking. Creating Spike's Mooney Bravo Mooney Madness with EngineFire 2012.  :)

Normally Nick’s Prop Dust FX will render the taxi light unusable. He uses this controller for the dirt, mud and clay surface prop FX. Both these options are important to me, thus I’ve kept the prop dust FX and rewired the overhead panel so the taxi light works. HOWEVER, this has come at the cost of the recognition lights, to solve this I’ve rigged them to toggle with the nav lights. This way they still work (with nav lights switch), prop dust is still there and the taxi light IS usable.

I used a few things for the Mooney other people had made then added the rest myself to compile what I believe to be a very fun fly.

That being said here’s what it’s got:

Prop dust, Wheel dust that changes with different ground surfaces, grass, dirt sand, gravel etc.

Below 20% throttle, bellow 8000ft, with more than 90% mixture, engine exhaust will become visible with EngineFlames, sounds and Port exhaust.

Engine explodes with oil leaks FX, internal fire FX and pulsing exhaust FX when...
Manifold pressure Max limit +38.1
Engine Oil Temperature Max +473f
Cylinder Head Temp Min limit when -230.1f above 6000ft
Cylinder Head Temp Max limit +496.4f

Warning lights have been added so you know when limits are close

CHT warning light has audio warning above 6,000ft and warnings if CHT is out of limits

ENGINE IS UNRECOVERABLE ONCE IT HAS FAILED.
Keep an eye on manifold pressure, oil and CHT temp.

Weather radar added.

Sounds added for cabin switches, different per switch on and off
sounds also added for fuel boost pump, spoilers, low fuel and CHT over temp.

New coat of paint.

Engine has been worked on to get an extra HP bringing the total to 350hp with new engine sounds to suit. larger bore and higher compression. Boost gauge.

**********Versions**********
There are 3 versions.
1) Mooney Madness.
2) Mooney EngineFire Std. has very basic FX.
3) Original MS mooney with extra wheel dust FX only.

Enjoy.
