Kodiak question

Man,
I tried the settings that you suggested Bill. I really did not see a whole lot of difference.
That's alright.
I did have an experience that made me feel like a genuine newb. The plane, even with brakes set, kept lurching forward on start up and crashing. This happened 5-6 times.
FS really did a lousy job on turboprop modeling.
I'll go back to the settings I had..maybe back off on the torque slider a bit.

Concerning which turbine they are going to, I forget the version. I heard they were fitting a different version in it, no longer the 67A. I'll try to find that out.

What I have read is that Kodiak has been using the PT6A-34 all along. Epic LT takes the PT6A-67A instead.

Hey Wombat,

That is probably the 'production engine' they are using.

I have been on this for years and heard they were looking at a new turbine. This must be what they went with going into production.
