Leaning issue

[tttocs 301]

I'd picked this up a few months back, but just installed and flew for the first time yesterday (P3DV4 with the latest release from Alabeo).  I'm flying a steam gauge version with RXP's 530 v2 installed.  One thing I struggled with right off is that this plane seems quite difficult to lean.  The EGT needles barely move even with large mixture changes, and "leaning by ear" is also dicey as there doesn't seem to be much affect on performance either.  Most FSX/P3D planes are overly sensitive to mixture compared to their RW counterparts, but this one seems the exact opposite.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Bert Pieke made a fix  for this problem and an autopilot issue.  Check out this thread - STEC Autopilot   It covers both problems.

Correction - Bert talks about the EGT issue in this thread on page 3.  Just scroll down.  It is just a case of my old memory failing.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the response.  However... I'm not finding the EGT fix from Bert that you mention.  I see you referencing it in the thread you linked to, but nothing from Bert.  I'm guessing that's in another thread so I'll do some additional snooping around.

OK, I think I found his change.  I'll give it a try.
