Update 1.8.1
Version 1.8.1 of the XCub PERFORMANCE+ MOD was designed to better replicate the performance of the CubCrafters XCub.

Flight model and autopilot has also been refined.

Modified fuel flow, max indicated RPM, Max design MP, Min design MP, rpm mechnical efficiency, best power fuel, modified beta min and max, modified beta cruise. Changed order and of annunciations and some values related to engine limits. Modified EGT, CHT to align with expected performance.
Version .1.7.7
Version 1.7.6 of the XCub PERFORMANCE+ MOD was designed to better replicate the performance of the CubCrafters XCub. We are trying to keep it as close to factory specification with the information we can gather from various sources. There are two variants available. the 180HP and 215HP versions.
