I found a little bug with my high wind planes. When I deploy flaps and idle the engine and put the nose down my high wing planes will build up speed like crazy!

Here is a Stinson will full flaps deployed.

15656 RPM is a little more than idle ??

Yeah the engine windes up as the plane builds up speed. I had that Zenogh G-45 up to 30,000 RPM on one pass.

Sounds to me like your controller is somehow sending a throttle signal that G2 interprets as less than zero, and that internally a signed value is getting assigned to an unsigned variable, resulting in a very large (larger than the throttle range would normally allow) RPM value, and thus driving the speed simulation to ridiculous levels. Sloppy programming at several levels. Haven't seen this one...

Default RE: 250+ MPH Stinson

I just installed G2 Add-On Volume 3 today. It has the Stinson. I was flying it and set up for a landing. As I turned base the rpm started to pick up. AS I turned final it went to about 75% throttle. At first I thought it was a "Flight Failure" so I just kept flying. Eventually I tired of it and tried keyboarding the letter "K" but that did not kill the engine. So I reset the flight. Figured it was done with. Nope, nect flight same thing.

It's a bug on the Stinson, not on all high wing planes. I bought G2, then added Volume 1, then 2, then 3 over a couple weeks. This is the first glitch in my sim time. I would like to get it resolved.

Any answers out there?
