Hello,
I bought the M20 collection about a month ago and have been thoroughly enjoying it. One thing I noticed today on the Ovation II (have not tried to replicate on the III or Acclaim yet) is that when you dial up the O2 system, you lose some power from the engine (approximately 1.5 inHg). It is acting like Alternate Air in a way with the source being a hot source (whereas the Alternate Air lever doesn't appear to do anything noticeable). After looking with some data output windows, I found that the ITT (I know it's naturally aspirated) would spike a few degrees C then return to the approx amount that it originally was. Is this a bug, or is it the way the system is coded? Also, I know IRL when you pull the Alternate Static, you have a momentary rise in the Altimeter and VSI, but the Alt Static lever doesn't appear to be allowing that to happen.
Hope these help with squashing any bugs on this bird, and look forward to seeing what comes next for it!

Cool. Wonderful plane nonetheless. Thanks for the hard work, and hope to see some of the new things for it soon!
