Though this has not caused any issues that I'm aware of I've always been a bit curious as to why the requested RPM in the gov screen is a different number than you'd get doing the math yourself. It's usually around 10 RPM off. For example I have "max headspeed' set to 3060 rpm and with a 56% throttle curve it should be about 1714 rpm but it shows the requested value of 1704. Or 61% it shows 1848 instead of 1867.
etc.
It is impossible to set perfect numbers like 1700, 1850, 1950, etc. because no matter what you type into max headspeed and what % you use the calculation is off.
Why?
Governor requested RPM is an inaccurate calculaion
Hello,
the calculation is performed in the Spirit unit where range is converted to internal one. So there might be a small difference. The difference is rather in the software where rounding can play a role. We will make it consistent so your calculation will fit.
Thank you for your hint.
