one other question - what is the difference between the two white liveries in the cargo variant?
And switch 13 swaps between CHT, and EGT? Is that in the real plane, and gauge 18 is multi-functional?
Iâve been looking for a high-res picture of the real plane, and it looks like switch 13 is actually used to switch between the three engines, on a switch marked âCarburettor temp & Combustion monitorâ. I guess this is a limitation of the sim with regard to a multifunction gauge?
someone chose to read the included pilotâs operating handbook insteadâŠi referred to the gauge correctly in my post above.
âSTUDY LEVELâ 
Its accurate to real world Trislanders
SW 13 swaps BOTH 18 and 19 between ENGINES
it would appear we have the same difficulty reading Switch Placards as we do reading Manuals ?
LOL

I donât own the Trislander, so Iâm going by IRL images only.
I can feel the sark creeping in again Graham. These are perfectly reasonable questions.

i use that switch to continuously monitor both the carb temp and combustion for all three engines - if you look at those two gauges when swapping between them using the 3-way switch you will notice differences that you can use to head off potential carb icing issues - itâs part of my workflow in the cockpit
different name same gauge ⊠but its Purpose ?
Appreciated but when I spend several weeks writing a tutorial then someone asks where something is?
Hope you can understand my hint of sarc

Yep, totally. I think the 530/750 dev. has worn his keyboard out typing âPlease refer to the manual for you answerâ, or words to that effect.

Honestly this verbal sparring is making me tired. I referred to the gauge as itâs marked in the actual poh you included with the plane. I indicated that I used the gauge to lean / richen mixture. What do you want from me? Itâs tomato / tomahto. You win. Is that better?

Thank you very much

Iâve got a set of those levers on the way from Blighty to Hawaiâi! I remembered I upgraded from a Logitech Throttle Quadrant to my Honeycomb Bravo, but I still have the Logitech. BAM! Mixture controls. âŠnow I just gotta see if I have three mixture knobs for it or not. If I donât, itâll bother me! 
As for leaning out the mixture, yes - you absolutely want to do this. At 10,000â, I can get 'er to just under 30gph. Without it, like full props, full mixture⊠youâre looking at more like 45+ gph. I canât recall the exact figure, but itâs significantly higher. I think by default, F2 / F3 on the keyboard are mapped to Mixture. You could map all three to those two buttons, and youâd be set!

I havenât taken her anywhere near 10,000 Iâm not even sure I flew that high when I flew in the Trislander, went up to 7000 earlier today and that was the highest I have flown the sim Trislander, mixtures are now mapped to my throttle axis on my joystick, it feels a bit more authentic to have something you can slide forward and backwards compared to pressing buttons.

I use the Bravo and decided to pick up a Logitech throttle quadrant to have 3 more levers. All of those become mixture in the case of 3 engine aircraft.

Couple of things about radio nav gear - I can only get really quiet audio from NAV2 ( certainly canât hear it with engines running ) & canât seem to get any audio at all out of NAV1 no matter how much twiddling & switch flipping I do. Am I missing a quirk somewhere? need keybinds for volumes independent of aircraft?
Also - I think this was mentioned but not sure - left magnetos do not interlock with the left front door as per pre-start checklist. Edit: & while I remember it, can feel a difference with carb heat vs no carb heat, but I canât see any difference on the manifold pressure gauges.
identical to mineâŠit works really wellâŠagree re mixturesâŠI just use the mouse for the infrequent adjustments

Right now for the Trislander Iâm just using the levers set up like my âcomplex twinâ stuff. All I did though was take lever 1 and assign it to all three throttles, then prop lever 1 the same, mixture lever 1 the same. Sacrifice until my Trislander levers get here

Nice one. I configured my Bravo to Prop (all three on one), three throttles, all three mixtures on one and all three carb heaters on one axis. Sure, you cannot have too much control over individual engines but it makes differential throttle easy and keeps the other things accessible.

Yeah I was using a bit of a strange set up before I got my levers, had 2 throttles one assigned to control the rear engine and engine 1, 3 prop levers, I wish I hadnât bothered getting that spare prop lever now, cost more for 1 lever to be sent from the USA as Honeycomb for whatever reason donât ship directly to the UK than it did for my complete set. Plus I had to get a friend to buy it for me then post it to me. the spare slot i used for a single mixture assigned to control all 3, it worked.
There are people who can make things, Iâve seen what is being called a custom built Cessna throttle prop mixture set, which instead of levers had things to push and pull, just like the Trislander mixtures, I would imagine it would be fairly easy to make something similar but just for mixtures, could even make the knob interchangeable so you could have it set up for Cessna as well. I might enquire about that. I know it will cost more than thee Trislander itself costs but I am a bit odd, I like having physical buttons and switches and levers to operate, I suppose pressing keyboard commands is pressing a button, but it doesnât have the same feel.
