Good morning - a club member went flying today and reported back to me that at times the %pwr displayed looked off. He took one picture, I’ll try to attach it but here’s the particulars:
DA - 4754
OAT - 66f
RPM- 2560
FF - 12.8 gph
MAP - 18.6”
TAS - 118 (suggesting good power)
Looking at performance charts, I would expect %pwr to be around 72%, rather than the indicated 50%. It appears to me that the MAP is throwing off the calculation for %pwr.
Thoughts? Troubleshooting suggestions?
