N1K2-J RPM Indicator
« on: June 18, 2012, 07:12:41 AM »
There appears to be a glitch in the RPM gauge on the N1K2.  When taking off the RPM gauge will work normally, but once it reaches max RPM's it stays there even if you decrease throttle or RPM's.  The MP pressure gauge works correctly.

Wouldn't the RPM's decrease as the throttle is decreased?  :headscratch:

Not as long as it can keep the RPMs at where it was set.  Decreasing the RPMs should, of course, decrease the RPMs.
