PA28 Turbo Arrow IV - To lean or not to lean

Featured Replies

Hi,

I'm a bit puzzled by the Justflight PA28 Turbo Arrow IV....
Disclaimer: I'm not flying single engine props that much, so it probably is user error 😉

Current I'm flying a 8000ft and I want to lean the engine/mixture.
However the moment I lean the engine, the fuel flow increases ?!?
Without leaning: ~ 12GPH, when leaned: ~ 15GPH
Is that correct? I'm a bit puzzled.

P.S. I'm talking about FS2020

Included MSFS version

Location: Vleuten, The Netherlands, 17.3dme SPL 108.40 | Simulator: FS2024
System: AMD 7800X3D - Gigabyte X670 - RTX 4090 - 64GB DDR5 - 2 x 2TB SSD - 32" 1440p Display - Windows 11 Pro

Wow! Thought that fs9 Times bug had already been fixed? 

Apparently not 😕

It's a bug that has been plaguing the MSFS franchise since the early ages of fs5, if not fs4 and bellow but those I don't recall.

Aircraft that code their oen engine "logic" can overcome it, but probably that PA28 os using native reviprocating engine code...

Appears to be ok in FS2024. Mixture control 34% = 15 galls ph. MC  67%, = 20 galls ph.

My query is, how do you remove out of sight the Tablet located  to the left of the co-pilot?

The IComm switch is to toggle it on and off. On the upper right hand side, left switch. 

Also, it's in the manual which you can get from the Just Flight website.
