TMS TO setting
-
Prior to starting up the engines, TMS is set up for (flex) TO. For most runways about 90% N1 will be ok. Next TMS is switched off and the engines are started up.
During taxi the TMS is switched on again, with TO mode engaged.
Since version 1.8 i noticed that N1% is now 2-3% higher than what i had set up. It should not be like this, and in earlier versions i did not happen neither.
Is this a bug in version 1.8 ? -

@huibrecht Can you confirm if engine or airframe anti-icing is switched on?
@martyn Indeed, anti-icing on or off causes the N1% difference shown on the TMS. As such, i postpone the TMS settings now until i have decided whether anti-icing will be required or not. (usually that is during taxi)
With the earlier BAe versions, it didn't matter as there was no impact on the performance by the anti-icing.
So problem solved for me, and happy flying around with the BAe. Looking forward to the Avro too !! -

So, if you setup the TMS for a certain temp and the actual atmospheric temp changes, it'll throw it out and compensate for the actual temp.
A common problem for us, especially on an early morning flight flight in summer.
