Greetings all,
Lately I've been enjoying flying the Electra model available for FSX. I've tried to read as much as I can find about operating this airliner correctly but I'm at a bit of loss when it comes to some of the finer details of turboprop management.
Looking at the gauges in the VC, I can see the typical oil pressure, oil temperature, exhaust temperature, engine RPM and thrust settings. I haven't however been able to find much good material as to what settings I should be looking for when it comes to particular phases of flight (taxi, climb, cruise, descent, etc). I'm sure this has to be somewhere but I can't find the documentation.
The other issue I'm having is that I can't seem to find any indicators as to what the propeller RPM is. As mentioned I can only seem to find the engine RPM gauge measuring I'm assuming the turbines revolution speed but nothing from the propellers. As a result I'm having to guess what settings I think they should be in during flight; not the most realistic approach!
Does anyone have any experience with how to handle these or knows about where I can find more?
By the way I'm flying the Team FS KBT Electra.
