seikdel Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Riddle me this: Why do I have such drastically different engine power outputs and temperatures? Both engine condition levers are set to normal. Is there something I'm missing, or is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sLYFa Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 The mi-8 has an automatic anti ice system wich turns on engine and blade anti ice if it detects that icing conditions exist. However, the left engine anti ice can only be activated manually. In your pick, right engine anti ice has been turned on automatically, while left engine anti ice is still off. So you can either turn off automatic anti ice or manually turn on left engine anti ice. That should even out engine loads since engine ai noticeably reduces engine performance i5-8600k @4.9Ghz, 2080ti , 32GB@2666Mhz, 512GB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaelu Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I found the same answer. Someone on youtube pointed me that I should do a check to my engines as the difference between temperatures should not exceed 40 degrees Celsius :D. Later I discovered that Toggling circuit breakers 1 2 and 3 on the last (ninth) zone of circuit breakers did start antiicing on right engine. Antiicing and anti dust protections can be switched off and on only on left... right is buggy I suppose. So either you don't turn those circuit breakers on. Either you be careful and press the big black button of STOP on anti ice and antidust panel so all Antiice and dustprotections are off. Or... you turn on the left antiice and antidust also if necessary (high alt flight or winter) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seikdel Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Aha! Thanks much for the info! Is that modeled correctly, or is it a bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

press Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 The dust protection should be started when the helo is bellow 50 meters. Be warned that it can eat up to 10% of engine power. At least this is in the real helo, I'm not sure about the simulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
