Turbo Normalized performance
-
I primarily fly the turbo normalized version and I was just wondering about the performance numbers specifically climb rate. I'm showing almost 1500 fpm at 140kts indicated with 1 passenger and 50 pounds of bags, tip tanks empty and the mains are full. That seems like an incredible rate of climb! I've asked around with real beech turbo normalized drivers and they all have stated that they are closer to 110kts indicated and more around 1200fpm. Just wondering if this might be addressed in a future update.

I did another flight today, about 0°C and the plane almost fully loaded, achieved 140kts, 1500ft/min climb at full open throttle with but prop to 2500RPM. Not completely out of this world but still seems a little bit too good…
See the following screenshots:

I also find that it climbs at a too high rate.
That being said i find it quite common in the sim.
I guess it's hard to balance it while keeping the other numbers close to the tables. -

I believe we are getting a fleet update this summer so hopefully he will get around to responding soon enough. I don't fly the bonanza often, nor have I flown it IRL, so I can't personally attest to how accurate it is.

@SadBucket I'm positive he will. Very much looking forward to the updates.

I do know the bonanza has much better than the book performance when not fully loaded, tho 2k fpm seems a little too good to be true. 25" 2500rpm is max continuous power, anything higher should not be used for more than 5 minutes.

It's advised to run WOT and 2500RPM in cruise, it's actually better for the life of the engine. This 25 and 25 thought is nonsense. It's almost as if the config file was just copied from the TP Bon and put in the TN.

I don't know what makes you think that, but I can assure you it's not the case. I actually try to never copy anything from one of my aircraft to another, because that's how I end up with unintentional changes that take me days to track down, unaware that a single config change could even induce the behavior I'm seeing.
