Piston & Turbine Dukes

Will do. Thanks for confirming that this might be a case of a strange bug. I will keep an eye on it.

Thank you for that Will have to ask over on spad if there is a way for me to use that

@mmcmah You extend the beta in the tablet. Why? Why not? I always say that since I paid for the simulator, the computer and the aircraft, I get to fly it anyway I want. Some like "realism," some don't care.

@Black-Square Through my digging I found this NASA paper on turbochargers and one of the engines referenced is the Lycoming TIO-540. I can’t say which variant, but perhaps it would have something useful. https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/19840013811/downloads/19840013811.pdf

@Randolf That part, I'm not sure. Never worked on one or flew one in the real world. In reality I could be completely wrong about all of this actually, I'm just going off basic knowledge - mainly expecting to hear either "Oh, oops! Thanks for pointing that out, will be fixed next patch" or "Actually it's supposed to be like that"

Wonderful! It's been bothering me all day thinking about this, since there was nothing I could do to quickly fix it for you on my end. Thank you for sharing.

Hi, Thank you for your explanation! After moving the throttles out of the beta range, the engines stated and shut down as expected.

I use the mouse scroll wheel to operate those 3-position switches and it works pretty fine. But you need a mouse with well-defined scroll wheel "hops", some mice tend to have misaligned scroll wheel positions with the output they send, like sometimes two, sometimes none, for each scroll wheel hop.

I was having some crashes with the turbine variant, and a repair-install (using the installer app) fixed the issue. It might be worth a try.

Yeah, that would be nice if it could be like the Comanche, where every delivery is its own unique plane.

thanks very much

@lilycrose I’m using my throttle to set the power to the proper setting within the power charts. I’m demonstrating that the turbocharger is overperforming at high altitudes because when the proper power settings are achieved, the aircraft behaves as expected per the manual. TLDR: Turbocharger issue, not Flight Model Issue.

@Black-Square more reliable, but way more expensive to maintain
