ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue: At higher elevations (but within standard operating envelope), the Cabri G2 appears to lose rotor speed before MLI reaches 100%.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? Every time.
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
-
Start a free flight with ‘Clear Skies’ weather preset in the Cabri G2 at a high-evelation airport (e.g. YHOT - elevation 4246ft)
-
Check that the ‘GOV OFF’ light is extinguished. Enter a hover and slowly increase power until about 82-83%
-
Observe that the Rotor RPM is now decreasing. The governor should increase power to 100% to prevent a drop in Rotor RPM. I conclude either that the MLI is not displaying the correct value, or that the Cabri G2 is underpowered (or both?).
-
(please note that standard operating procedure in the Cabri G2 is for the mixture to be left on FULL RICH during flight)
-
(please ALSO note that expected behaviour when engine has insufficient power to maintain rotor RPM is the needles should split - engine RPM will stay static or increase, while rotor RPM falls)
