    Hi,
    Please help me understand what is wrong with the way they are operating now. Is it one particular plane or all?

    When you say faster deployment, that would not be realistic would it?

    I would think that the speed of the spoilers is made into the model file, or the .air file of the plane itself. I had a look in aircraft.cfg files, and there were only "limits" of the spoilers mentioned. No speed of operation.
    Anyone else know?

    Open the planes Air file .
    Move down to the " Flight Dynamics " line .
    Open it .
    Move down to the " Spoiler Cycle Time " .
    If you lower that number the spoilers will activate faster .
    Raise the number , they will slow down .

    If you want them to have more drag then :
    Move down to the " Spoiler Drag " line .
    Raise or lower that number to your liking .
