I am using 0.8.0. For C172, the range of the RPM --on the ground at KSFO, when I move the throttle to its extremes-- is 900-2200, I tried with both my old joystick and keyboard, there are minor differences but the general range is the same.

Or is it the 3/4 of the way on throttle control (which is kind of hard to see/know)? Given that my RPM can only go as high as 2200, is there something wrong with 0.8.0 throttle control range, or is it that the rarer air in higher altitutes will allow faster RPM? I guess I will experiment with this tonight...
