The green band for EGT applies mainly to cruse power settings. A high EGT is not so bad as long as the CHT (Cylinder Head Temperature) is below ~450F. You can find the official POH (Pilot's Operating Handbook) with a quick online search. For the M20R Continental IO550, typical "cruise climb" setting is 2500RPM (propeller control) and 24" Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP : Throttle). This is usually set when climbing through 1000' to 1500'. Lean the mixture in cruise at 3000' and above to 50 degrees rich of peak EGT for best performance or 50 degrees lean of peak for best economy. CHT is more critical than EGT. Rapid decline of CHT in descent is known as shock cooling and can damage the cylinder heads with cracks or combustion chamber seal failure. The cruise power settings chart in the POH at page 5-19 and on the sun visor also gives you a clear picture of the affect of altitude on the normally aspirated (no turbo) piston engine. Typical descent engine management: Pull throttle (MAP) back until RPM declines to a desired setting such as 1500 to 1800 RPM. Leave the prop alone until preparing for landing or approach, then full forward. Richen mixture to 1/2 the cruise setting above 3000' then full rich below 3000'.

Their website doesn't list the changes for this update yet but it did Incorporate WTT technology for the GTN 750 premium which is nice. I now can remove the patch that was required. But your right, the autopilot is still funky. If I set the altitude to, lets say, 3000 feet, it should show it in the 750 autopilot but it doesn't. But I can get it work and but it's not as good as the steam gauged autopilot. Also, I noticed you can use the TDS GTNXi. I think that's new or it was on the previous update.

Good video Jonathan as always. I like that you try to follow procedures even if it looks like you are non RL pilot. MAP = Manifold Pressure. It is a good indication of engine power and has the benefit to be altitude agnostic, ie MP will go down with similar power setting at higher altitude, because your delivered power also goes down for similar throttle setting. The EGT green indication is for leaning. This is used to set your engine lean of peak (LOP) or rich of peak (ROP). If you lean the engine, you will see the EGT starting going up until it reaches a peak then goes quickly down on the LOP side. Use this green bar to set up your power into economy mode (LOP). EGT is an indication of how much of the mixture burns into the exhaust, indicating an imbalanced mixture setting. Running at peak is usually not good for engine longevity and will wear out your exhaust valves.

The Duxford scenery is awesome. The 146 was in the scenery before it was there in reality. I have Duxford membership and I’ve flown in there in real life a few times. Also used to fly out of Stapleford but that was so long ago the runway was 22/04 and it was all grass.

Thank you for this Jonathan. I will be picking up the M20R this evening. Your videos are always pleasant and soothing. I will check to make sure the GPS CDI changes the one on the aircraft you used. It is possible if there was a disconnect with them that the VOR was giving you those small issues. I am flying MSFS on XBox at the moment so no PMS50 750GTN for me until I pick up my gaming PC from the repair shop this week. Had to turn it in for a new liquid cooler. I will fly some VOR to VOR and let you know how it goes.

Thank you Jon for the new flight. M20R was among the first third parties that I have bought. I am planning to take it for a spin next week, also with the GTN 750. Perhaps MAP is MAnifold Pressure? 🤔

I too am a Mooney fan. I just wish they built anti icing equipment into thier aircraft. In real life they are offering aftermarket kits for some models though. She dont do good in ice. Its a warm weather aircraft for sure. And I know for sure one of the things they fixed is taking out thier own pilot and co pilot and allowing you msfs pilot and co pilot to ve shown. That fat pilot on launch annoyed me. Lol. I also did not see the tablet in your version. Thats odd..its suppose to be in passenger door pocket.

This was the first addon I bought for MSFS almost straight after I bought the sim, and 4 days later there was a sim update that broke it. It was not a good introduction to either the sim or 3rd party addons 🤣🤣

I have the M20R as well. Flew it from Texas to my home in Abbotsford, BC, Canada. Wow, long legs in a prop. But, not sure what happened but 3x I was unable to drop the landing gear and had to belly flop land it. Havent had any issues since then but...wonder if you ever had taht problem? I think I may have caused it, somehow. Thanks for the great video presentations Jon, one of my fave KZitemr's!

I can't believe that Carenado still haven't got the AP and VS right, I bought this aircraft ages ago but have now deleted it and won't reinstall until they have updated it, I think I have a long wait.

Hello, Hope Your having a Good Week End and I have found with these rather odd auto pilots is to actually take it to the alt you want and heading and once establish on where you want to be you hit the AP I know it defeats the purpose of an AP but in msn what are you going to do till things get mended.

OMG Jonathan, you are bashing Carenado, act selfsecured and seem to know everything and "all Carenado aircraft have these problems", but actually it works correctly. The things you say that are not working correctly are all pilot errors. I really wish you would be a bit less arrogant in your comments and just make nice videos. MAP is manifold pressure by the way....and you should reduce it in cruise slightly. You could do better and until then you could backoff with the selfsecured comments a bit.
