Manifold pressure in P3D V3

Recommended Posts

Installed the Baron into P3D V3 and have noticed the maximum manifold pressure at full throttle is reading about 25" at an airport elevation of 720 feet. Checked the same in FSX and get a normal maximum MP indication.Checked the aircraft config file and it shows 32" as maximum. Can somebody else check their P3D V3 install and verify what you seeing maximum MP in a runup?

Trying to determine if it is a V3 issue or a messed up file setting.

Make sure your throttle axis calibration is correctly set - sensitivity bar full right...

Does the MP go to 32 when the engines are shut down, but only 25 at full power when running? If so, it is probably the calibration of your throttle levers.

Recalibrated the controller and got the full throttle again and it agrees with keyboard F4. Thanks' guys I just overlooked the obvious.
