Hmm...I'm definetely no expert at props, but shouldn't you be able to change the pitch of the prop blades, just so you avoid the scenario you created.

So instead of propwash directed backwards (creating forward thrust) you should adjust the propblades to blow the air more sidewards - this will create less thrust (and more noise in the cabin  ;D )

Don't know if this works in FS...never fly the props  :-[

Hi,
Well on mine I have the yoke and rudder pedals. What I do is pull the throttle all the way back, the prop pitch all the way back and also the lever on the right which is normally the mixture I pull that back and it puts it into low range. (But that's what I do and I'm not sure if it is right or not)

Nexus is right you should feather the props accordingly as this plane is a turbo-prop, and this is how you do it in real life ;)
