"Set Power" Not Working

[GAJ52 54]

I have been using the NGX for quite some time now and neglected the JS41 which is a shame because its a fantastic aeroplane. Anyway I can't remember if the "Set Power" function was working before during takeoff.

 

I have all the Departure Check flows complete and turn on ALL the external lights, then call "Cleared for takeoff" and my FO selects the Condition Levers to 'Flight'. Then when lined up I raise my Saitek X52 throttle to the 12 o/c position and call "Set Power" - he responds with "Power Set" but doesn't actually set the correct Torque figure I selected, which is normally 98%.

 

After saying "Set Power" I always follow through with the X52 throttle but the actual power set always ends up Max i.e. 101 -102% ??

 

What am I doing wrong ?

Hi Glen,

 

You'll need to trim the power manually.

 

FS2Crew can't set power that accurately due to tech limitations... so you'll need to manually adjust it a bit.

OK thanks Bryan, I just couldn't remember how it worked before :smile:
