- PCU System: PEC lights will come up on overspeed >1060
- PCU System: After engine failure with prop unfeathered, rpm will slowly drop to 400 (IAS dependent)
- Oil System: When alt feather pump is activated, the system will not delay the feathering due to oil pressure
- FADEC System: Fixed the PEC failure detection due to overspeed
