No oil cooler flap sound when in automatic mode?

Post by gulredrel »

Hello,

today I made some tests with the oil dilution system with -20°C OAT. Still needed the trick to shortly open the mixture, but engines came to life. Without the dilution, I had no luck starting the engine.

Besides that I noticed the following:
Opening and closing the oil cooler flaps in manual mode, I can hear a sound. Having the oil flaps open and switch to automatic, the flaps will shut, but there is no sound.
Can someone confirm this?

Regards
Jens

I just checked my install and I can confirm what Jens reported.

System is Windows 7 and FSX Acceleration.
