Is The Bonanza Usually Carbureted?
So ive noticed the 300hp version has a carbureted engine. Though in the manual it stated the lower power version is a fuel injected 6 cylinder, I don't see a carb heat control anywhere for carb icing either. Just something i wondered about. I did notice it starts very easy in cold weather compared to my other carbed aircraft, (Comanche and Piper 180 in FSX HATE the cold) Even turning the temperature down to un realistic levels like -80F i could get it to pop right off with around 8-9 seconds of prime. Also i noticed that the oil pressure really dosn't get that high, At freezing -50F+ temps with around 6.5 quarts of dirty 100w oil its at around 65-66psi on startup at 1000rpm. and around 30-33psi warmed up. Just thought it would be much higher then that at that temperature with 100w oil. As i pretty much turned that 100w into a solid brick haha. All the other A2A planes seem to almost peg or completely peg the oil pressure gauge at that temp on a cold start.

Hi, Mechanical fuel injection system is used in both 520 and 550 engines. Please see this thread: http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtop ... 39&t=65290
