DA62 Mass & Balance planning with ForeFlight

Post by Jimhartley »

Does anyone else have a problem with (or solution to) this problem?

I sometimes want to use less than full mains with some fuel in Aux tanks for M&B purposes. ForeFlight will not allow me to enter any fuel in the Aux tanks unless the mains are full. For example, if I put 40 gallons in the mains and then try to put 20 in the aux, FF changes that to full mains 10 gallons in the aux. Very frustrating.

Had same issue yesterday. I set tanks to ‘Maximum Fuel’ and then reduced mains. Worked ok.
