vaseycr Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Have recently started flying this wonderful aircraft. After about 5-8 minutes both engines quit following a fire warning. I am conscious of the need to reduce manifold pressure & rpm while in cruise but still the fire warnings persist. Can't find a suitable place to post my issue over at Sim Out House so I post here in hopes that someone can offer a solution.

StringBean Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I cannot help you other than to suggest you post in the FS9 forum at SOH, where Milton will see it. peace, the Bean WWOD---What Would Opa Do?

ViperPilot2 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I would start a new Thread over at SOH regarding your issue. Milton's been busy updating a few of his older Models, and has been posting regularly there. I'm sure he'll see your Thread and get you squared away.

mrzippy Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I had this version and did 2 test flights. The first ended in flames after 5 minutes. I also made sure to lower the RPM's and Manifold pressure, but come to find out, not nearly low enough. 2nd test flight went OK. This is from Milton's OOPS README file. Normal engine operation: ======================================================= 1450-2500 RPM continuous operation 18-47.5" MAP 2700 RPM military power (max 30 mins) 52.0" MAP 2800 RPM take-off power (max 5 mins) 56.5" MAP Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

vaseycr Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Appears that these engines are very temperamental. Thanks for your input. CRV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperPilot2 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 OP, Did you ever post over at SOH?

vaseycr Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Did not post at SOH because I tried a different panel (I was using a non stock panel) & the problem was resolved. CRV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
