Was looking at the A8s engine settings on the HTC aircraft page today. It lists:
Wep: 47" @2700rpm
Mil: 39.5" @2400rpm
By default, the A8s engine turns at 2700 rpm. When you hit WEP, it stays at 2700 rpm. Turn WEP off, 2700 rpm.
My question is, does the 190A-8's default engine setting turn too fast for maximum power/efficiency at "normal" (full throttle, default rpms) military power? Maybe someone with a little more knowledge of engines/aviation could explain what's going on here. My biggest concern is that I'm wasting fuel... should I be reducing RPMs to 2400 whenever I'm not using WEP?
Thanks in advance.
