P3DV3 Props Losing Sync

Recommended Posts

I can't begin to describe exactly what creates the issue. Perhaps the way P3Ds weather changes occur?

The propellers occasionally start to fluctuate RPM erratically. #1 and # 3 might stay synced while #2 and #4 begin to bounce around. Its not always the same engines. I abort AFE and try to manually regain control of them with no luck. I hit the Resync button like its going out of style. This doesn't happen every flight, but I cant seem to pinpoint the cause. Any help?

 

On a side note, to PMDG, the Northern Air Cargo and Red Bull liveries main gear wheels are showing black textures. Am I the only one?

There may be more, I just haven't had time to go through the liveries.

Are you damaging the engines by any chance? Check the engine colour on the maintenance page. I thought similar and found I had incorrectly set the superchargers to HIGH without reducing power first and it damaged the engines and caused a BMEP/RPM fluctuation. Just an idea, though.

Sounds like the engines are responding negatively to a little bit of abuse. Open up the maintenance panel and look at the engines. I'm guessing the indicator isn't green.
