The DH2 is a great machine and its simulation in FS2020 is amazing, however I need educating on how the propellor / power settings work.
I am flying along in cruise at 5,000ft straight and level with the MP at 26" and the propellor at 2000 rpm.
If I push the MP to 30" the propellor remains at 2,000 rpm but the aircraft starts to climb. Why does this happen? the prop is still at 2,000 rpm? Conversely if I reduce the MP to say 21" the aircraft starts to descend, again the prop is still turning at 2,000 rpm.
I am using the settings from the DH2 beaver in FSX, everything works just as its supposed to but I don't see why? The only way you can change the thrust is to change the propeller rpm...
