|starter-torque (fgfs 2.8) | |||
|A value specifying the zero RPM torque in lb*ft the starter motor provides. Current default value is 40% of the maximum horsepower value. | |||

|starter-rpm (fgfs 2.8) | |||
| A value specifying the maximum RPM the unloaded starter motor can achieve. Loads placed on the engine by the propeller and throttle will further limit RPM achieved in practice. | |||

|static-friction (fgfs 2.8) | |||
|this value is the power required to turn an engine that is not running. Used to control and slow a windmilling propeller. Choose a small percentage of maxhp. It can also be adjusted at run-time to simulate accessory or other non-thruster engine load. | |||

|man-press-lag (fgfs 2.8) | |||
|Delay in seconds for manifold pressure changes to take effect after the throttle is moved or the RPM changes. Default is 1 second. | |||
