August 13, 20223 yr So Ive been flying the DA-40 around for fun , great slow plane for sight seeing....Anyways Ive noticed that I hit the RED rpm constantly even in level flight... The only way I can keep the rpm indicator warning from going off is flying with maybe quarter throttle which puts the LOAD around 15 percent but drops my speed way below max cruise... I dont see any type of engine controls other than the throttle..... Is having high rpm indicator going on and off just a normal thing in this plane? Am I doing it wrong? Is there some hidden rpm controller somewhere I just havent found? Thanks in advance...
August 13, 20223 yr Diamond aircraft like the DA40 are fitted with a FADEC that gives single lever manifold pressure and prop controller. It is badly implemented in MSFS 2020 . There is a DA40 "improvement mod" kicking about that does help a bit.
