prop going over redline

Post by awash2002 »

When ever I fly the 172 Skyhawk at full throttle in cruise it will turn up to 2430 or higher with the stock prop on it and with the S model prop on it it will turn 2740 or better is that normal I am using FSX with the acceleration package

It's normal (the simulation is working correctly), but it is faulty operation.
If full throttle results in the propeller exceeding max RPM, then full throttle is not available at that time. You need to reduce throttle to keep the engine+propeller within limits.
