Is this really a Turbo?

Featured Replies

I'm looking to buy this, and I've been through the messages here and watched over a dozen videos, but something's wrong.

 

1. In these messages someone said it's the same engine as the RealAir Legacy. That can't be since the Legacy is non-Turbo.

2. In videos I've seen % power has already decreased to around 80% by 7500 feet or so (glimpses). This would be incorrect for a turbo.

3 I've also seen speeds around 10000ft with full power that shows only about 140 KIAS and around 170 KTAS. This would also be incorrect for a turbo airplane. The SR22T should do about 190 at 10k ft, and that at cruise power (e.g. since it's turbo, pulled back). 

 

This is definitely an FSX limitation, as the Duke is turbo as is modeled correctly. This plane is supposed to be able to climb to 25000ft and do about 210 KTAS (which would show as about 140 KIAS). Can it? Is the turbo correct on this release?

I meant to say above that this is definitely NOT an FSX limitation...

Maybe not perfectly modeled.  But it seems to have some sort of turbo.  I can leave the mixture lever forward and it doesn't lose much power in the climb...  at least not as much as a normally aspirated engine.
