January 3, 200620 yr Hi Folks.My Twin Otter engines appear to have differences in power? Gauges for the left engine read max when full throttle but gauges for the right one show only half when full lever applied?Engines sound the same and look the same from the outside view. A test with both engines at a quarter throttle taxi's straight ahead (BOTH engines equal but not showing equal on the gauges?) If the gauges were real, I would say they were faulty! I have checked the throttle settings in FSUIPC,as well as settings in game controllers.I guess if the plane flies ok, this should be enough - but it's not exactly as real as it can get!!Anyone experience this problem?Tony U.K.
January 4, 200620 yr Ok. First question is have you configured FSUIPC to handle the throttle inputs? it may be the range on your right throttle is greater than that of your left.Check the game control panel to see the output of the throttle lever. Push the faulty one full forward and see if it goes past 1/4. If not, your problem is with the hardware signal, not the computer's end of it. This is usually fixed by setting FSUIPC to handle the controls instead of FS itself. You can alter the range in FSUIPC setting what would normally seem 1/4 throttle as full.If that's not the issue, then there is a bug in the gauges that you seem to have found or have created somehow. Check the designer's forum and see if anyone else is having the same issue.Good luck. Aaron
