Hi, Just bought my first gyrocopter and it is absolutely adorable so far. Just wondering, why is there a difference in the speed safetyzones between the speedometer (in km/h) and the G1000 (in kias). At the same speed the speedometer is in the green shelve while the G1000 already shows yellow. Normally they are alligned? AM I overlooking something or is this a design issue? If so, why? Curious, EVsim

Curious, EVsim Hi there! And thanks for your feedback! It is indeed an issue - will be listed for further evaluation and fix.... Many thanks!

Perfect!
Another possible issue: to which RPM number reflects the G1000’s RPM? It seems not alligned with either the engine and rotor RPM numbers.

The RPM in the G1000 indicates the prop RPM, while the analog gauge in the cockpit indicates the engine RPM. The Rotax has a reduction gear box, and the propeller is running at lower RPM of the engine's. In the current default LR G1000 configuration, it is recommended to use the analog gauges indications for RPM.
