July 19, 20223 yr Good day folks, Although I have purchased the Carenado Seneca and Skymaster shortly after release only yesterday I did a couple of flights in them. I noticed with both aircraft that when checking props the RPM drop with the propeller lever all the way back is hardly noticable. That is with RPM at 1800 during runup. In flight, with a higher MP and RPM the drop seems larger. Is this normal? I've seen a review of the Seneca where the RPM drop was significantly larger during the prop checks. Also, with the Mooney there is no problem; RPM drop is as expected. Curious about your findings Cheers, Bert AMD Ryzen 5900X, 32 GB RAM, RTX 3080 Ti, Windows 11 Home 64 bit, MSFS 2024

While no where near study level they have taken a step forward a bit with MSFS. They are at least making attempts at this point to make each plane not seem like a cut and paste of the last one ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING / i9-9900k @ 4.7 all cores w/ NOCTUA NH-D15S / 2080ti / 32GB G.Skill 3200 RIPJAWS / 1TB Evo SSD / 500GB Evo SSD / 2x 3TB HDD / CORSAIR CRYSTAL 570X / IPSG 850W 80+ PLATINUM / Dual 4k Monitors

I agree. But... I posted my findings because in the youtube video below the RPM does drop as expected during the engine runup. So I don't understand why it doesn't work on my install. Look here: When I do the feathering check at 1500 RPM the RPM drop is hardly noticeable, while in the video the drop is quite large as it should be. Also at 1700 RPM the video shows a great RPM drop; my Seneca doesn't... The video is somewhat old. Could it be a service update of the sim caused this behaviour? Do any of you experience the same?

The video is from more than a year ago so I think it's more than possible that something has changed in the sim (or in an update from Carenado) between then and now that's adversely effected the prop behaviour.
