Sounds like this is one of the few turboprops in MSFS which has a good FM.
@DAQUA3828 , are you sure that this is an ‘issue’ and not RW behaviour?

Not everything is user error and the Kodiak is not perfect.
But indeed, a lot of the Kodiak complaints are from people ignoring the torque and pitch restrictions on take-off and firewalling the throttle and yanking back to rotate like they would in a c172, aggravated by not bothering to lower the nose until they reach a safe climb out speed.
The real question here is what is meant by reduce power. Full throttle instantly to idle on a 700 odd HP Turboprop is going to have a big effect. However more subtle reductions should not have a radical effect.

Here it’s the same, even reducing the power very carefully (Honeycomb bravo) causes an immediate and a strong noticeable sinkrate.
Oh it could be a real world behavior the developers implemented, but if this is the case, I need to make sure I calibrate the thrust sensitivity to adapt to it to be able to better modulate my rate of descent on final
