Flying Tim Conrad's PC-6

Featured Replies

I wasn't sure if I should post this in the general freeware discussion forum or here where it may gain more attention and hopefully an answer if that's ok with the mods?

Tim Conrad's nice freebie PC-6 Turbo Porter: How does one fly this "by the numbers" in relation to engine usage? I note that there are some obvious markings on the torque and temp gauges - avoid the redline etc. How should I adjust the condition knob - is it all or nothing like the Republic Seabee for example or should it be varied during different aspects of the flight - T/O, climb, cruise, descent?  Full bore to take off and then back the throttle off to a climb setting? Can anyone help please?

It seems to be an unusual cockpit layout in that I couldn't find pictures online of a dual throttle quadrant equipped PC-6 as per Tim's rendition...

Thanks.

Polite bump. I fear a lot of members are too busy flying the new sim. Not that I blame them for that of course! 🍻
