Finn 873 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Title says.. There is a rather big difference between Torque readings for Engine 1 & 2 with the same throttle and Prop settings. The gauges seems out of specifications calibration wise Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/169876-torque-difference-between-engine-1-and-2-with-same-throttle-settings-dhc6-300-float/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51562 Posted January 19, 2022 Aerosoft Share Posted January 19, 2022 Wait, can you try toggling anti ice systems? Just saw a stream that showed something that could be the same as you report.

Finn 873 Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 Strange.... I had this on the very first flight. I use FSUIPC 7 for axis assignments and Calibration, so I guess something has been out of sync on my system. I have tried to replicate, but all seems fine now. Sorry for any inconvenience. Otherwise it´s great to be back in a Twin Otter again - nice job Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/169876-torque-difference-between-engine-1-and-2-with-same-throttle-settings-dhc6-300-float/#findComment-1072765 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn 873 Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 Your right... Turning Engine anti ice on reduces Torque for Engine 1, but not for Engine 2. Since there is only one switch, only Engine 1 has it´s anti ice turned on, but not Engine 2.

At same throttle setting, torque readings are different. (sorry if it wasn't clear)....

Jan R. Storelvmo 69 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I also noticed the same thing when trying the Twotter at my friends house earlier today. Different torque readings for each engine when applying power for takeoff. It didn't happen every time though, strange.
