Hello All,
Just a follow up on the prop feathering. LOL.. as usual John is right on top of everything, and has already updated the
OH_P38F, so thought I would check out the keyboard setup for use as a prop feather device. In looking at the OH_B25, I found
that it already has the Section 1509 in the airfile, so I used it for my keyboard testing. CFS2 has a command for "Arm/Unarm
Auto Prop Feather" which is unscripted in the default keyboard, so I set up a command key for it at CTL+F. The default keyboard
layout has commands for "Select Engine" at CTL+S, "Select Item 1" at SHIFT+F1, and "Select Item 2" at SHIFT+F2. After some
major fiddling using only keys, I managed to select the port engine on the B25, shut it down, adjust the prop to 0 RPM, and
engage the auto prop feathering. This is VERY tricky and took some practice, but if the airfile is set up with a Section 1509,
it can be done using only the keys.
THANX for presenting this forum topic! Much fun learning new [for me] CFS2 multi-engine skills.
