The engine will no exceed 100% now (and in detail, the engine-rpm is not simulated now. I have just a limitation of the torque the engine can produce depending on actual rotor-rpm and the derivation of the rotor-rpm. It produces no torque on rpm>100% >> -the speed-indicator seems to indicate not only the fraction in the >> x-direction. >>

I think the real speed indicator remains at zero. Maik ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
