February 10, 200422 yr I did a flight today across Colorado, and my prop RPM gauge was inoperable...I have all system failures OFF, so I know thats not it...it would not respond to any throttle movements...anyone else have this problem, I flew by monitoring fuel flow instead. Thanks for the help. :-)Danny[a href=http://library.avsim.net/search.php?CatID=Root&SearchTerm=danny%2Bfritsche&Sort=Added&ScanMode=0&Go=Change+View" target="_blank]My Work.[/a]http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpgIntel P4 2.4GHzAsus P4PE MoboCrucial 1GB PC2700 DDR128MB Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro/Omega 3.9sMaxtor 120GB and 30GB 7200Rpm HD
February 10, 200422 yr Hi Danny.Perhaps I misunderstand you, but the throttle controls the torque setting, not prop RPM. You need to set the prop RPM with keys (I think the default are ctrl+F1 to ctrl+F4).In other words, after takeoff when you basically max out on torque and RPM, reduce the throttle to a torque setting of 96% and adjust the RPM to 1550. This gives you Max Continous Thrust during climb.Or have you assigned the RPM control to a lever on your stick/yoke and it is that which doesn /Tord Hoppe, Sweden
