You lose manifold pressure as the airplane climbs because these engines are not turbocharged. You lose about 1" MP per thousand feet. It'll get up to 20,000 feet, but the last 5,000 will take a long time unless it's lightly loaded.
no, sorry i don't know why that's happening to your airplane it says that it can fly up to 20,688 ft or 6,306 km but i don't know why you loose pressure at 15,000 feet :\
lol yea =D it's a shot video =( yea this is using fraps =) so if you would watch both of them when they are HQ and plz tell me what one is better =) tysm Tom
