Something isn't right with this latest update. The beta reverse will send it moving backwards on the ground at an astonishing speed, and it'll stop the airplane on a dime upon landing. This shouldn't happen. Also, I'm having to use 2000 lbs+ of torque to get a 170 knot true airspeed at cruise (usually in the 9000 ft range). Also not how this works. The mod has been really good up until now. I'm not sure what happened.

Thank you for your valuable feedback!
We have changed nothing. Asobo has changed the physics behind the propeller (which is not part of this mod).
We can have a look on how Improve that, but that is something which needs time.

The second thing I cannot completely confirm, as it has not enough detail.
The Cruise Performance is, in my testing's, still near on the POH (but there is still room for improvement).
POH says 8807 lbs at 10.000 feet, -10°C and 1600 RPM -> 2000 Ft-Lbs torque -> 173 KTAS
On simulator the speed is only at 169-170 KTAS in this constellation.
So there si room for speedup up to 3-5kt depending on situation.
The fuel consumption is also improvable to be lower.
