Fluctuating idle?

[DrumsArt]

Hi,

Thanks for the aircraft...it's a real pleasure to have it again...ideal to visit ORBX Honolulu scenery

I noticed that the engine idle speed was frankly fluctuating. I don't remember that in FSX...

ThrustMaster Warthog Throttle at zero correctly calibrated.

Regards,

Confirm I have this issue with the idle.

I noticed that a few times. My controller is old and worn and I thought maybe it was fluctuating. I ordered a new one today.

Hey guys,

you mean the RPM wobbling about a bit?

thanks,

Yep, in my case anyway.

Guys,

Are you seeing this even after giving the engine oil a few minutes to warm up?

Thanks,
Nick

I waited until close to 100. RPMs from a little over 5 for a few seconds then to 750 for a second and back down for a few seconds and back up. I have never waited on the oil to heat up in the Cub since it was running when loaded. Surprised I didn't blow it up.
