Left Engine Smoking white

[Rhinozherous]

Hello!

When I start up the Mossi from cold and dark (following the manual and checklists from other users) the left engine starts smoking white, sometimes on ground. sometimes in air... It seems there is no temp problem. The right engine has the same temps and settings and is not smoking.

Known issue awaiting a fix.

 

You can ignore it for now.

Not solved yet. Temps are ok ….. hmmmm.

If you don't take off with pitch levers all the way forward it doesn't happen. I push them full forward, then back them off an inch or so. I know it shouldn't be, but until they fix it, this seems to work.

Yep, I can confirm this, I noticed the same, so looks like its present only with prop lever on full forward position. It will also stop on the flight after a few minutes (even full forward after take off).

Depends. It doesnt always appear, even with prop lever to most fwd position.

 

Still awaiting for a fix, nothing has changed. Disregard smoking effect for now.
