HeartofDavid Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 I started flying and went to the outside view and saw this weird fan type thing and oen compartment. I am in 1.7.1 and XP11. I am at a loss! ha ha Quote

retiree_caf Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 Air Driven Generator (ADG). When all else fails, this little guy will get you home.... Quote
Nano Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 It's a small Ram Air Turbine (known as a RAT) used in the event of a dual engine failure. It provides electricity to the emergency bus and has a small hydraulic pump for gear and flight controls. Usually deploys automatically given certain criteria, but can be deployed manually for ops checks. I have deployed one in real life for an ops check and it makes a heck of a loud racket. Can't be stowed in flight once deployed. Quote
