This is an aircraft performance profile for Little Navmap (LNM) based on the "Duckworks" improvement mod for the Asobo/Aeroplane Heaven DC-3 ("Duckworks" mod by Imenes). It was recorded based on a simple flight plan and using the Garmin autopilot for a stable flight using the standard economy prop, mixture, and power/throttle settings for a climb to 9500 feet, a flight of approximately 30 minutes, a gentle descent, and an ILS landing. To get the best baseline possible, good weather settings with a standard baro altimeter setting was used with a moderate (approximately half) load of cargo and fuel for weight.
Of course adverse weather conditions, aggressive climbs and descents, max performance cruise settings, and other factors will all affect your results, but this should give you a good starting point. I have also included some basic and useful information under the remarks tab for when you can't find your checklists! :-)
NOTE: Most (if not all) recorded airspeeds are at TAS (True Air Speed), not IAS (Indicated Air Speed) as given by your airspeed indicator as this is what LNM requires for the performance profiles. As a general rule of thumb, the TAS is about 2% higher than IAS for every 1,000 feet (300 m) above sea level.
I also used the great "DC-3 knots airspeed indicator and placards" mod by c525b when creating this LNM profile as I prefer my speed in knots instead of MPH.
