Performance and UX fixes to the DA40 to match the real thing
Version 0.8
Systems:
- Removed small 5° gap in fuel temp
- Redblink on Load not so sensitive.
- Partially redone electrical system:
- -Fuel pumps, starters and Electric master behave 99% correctly.
- -Fuel transfer stops automatically when the left tank is above 14gal
- Fuel sloshes "back and forth", kinda
- The text of respective indications will now change colour (systems and fuel page)
- Turning on master triggers fuel pump sound (using transfer pump sound as its not as annoying)
- Voter switch, does something..
Powerplant:
- Engine catches fire instead of just failing. (there is smoke, but its hard to see)
- ECU test behaviour improved. ECU test reacts to the engine and the way its performing in the current conditions
- Slight spool up added when starting the engine
- Reduced cooling a little
Debugging stuff:
- Added a full CAS message. I encourage you to read it if you see it...
- Added "PROP AXIS" CAS message. again, read it, please...
- Engines will shutoff when the FADEC is not running.
Version 0.7.7.1

- Under -10°C the engine becomes Torque limited. Max power ~98%
- Run-up RPM fixed
- ECU Test behavior improved.
- ECU run-up no longer moves the throttle lever(thanks Abdullah), and moving it above 5% will cancel the runnup

- Engine will sputter when overloaded for too long and if the fuel is too cold (-42°C)
- ECUs will fail when the engine is failed.
- Inverted flight will cause oil and fuel starvation
- Fuel temperature is simulated using simplified physics

- Lowest Fuel temp -25°C, not -30 (DA62 is -30)
- Removed fuel totaliser softkeys to avoid confusion
- Fuel totaliser behaves like an actual fuel totaliser. Turn the plane off to reset it (no softkeys to do so sadly :'( )
- Improved Autopitlot PIDs
- Fixed heading Bug bug
- A shit-ton of changes to the flightmodel. Lower Attitudes, correct climb performance etc etc
