787 Cockpit Display

[HoneyBadger]

The right most upper number is usually at 6.0 and occasionally flickers to 7.0, and only seems to drop below 5.0 at roughly idle. Anyone know what this number represents. Thought it was maybe a skewed RPM indicator at first ...

The left most upper number above the fixed 50.00. Its 99.00 at full stop and jumps around otherwise. Thought this one might be boost pressure but the value displayed at a given RPM doesn't seem right for that.

Any ideas on what either of these two numbers are supposed to indicate.

PS - I especially like the accurate lap time indicator in the cockpit on this car - kudos PD 👍

I've always thought it was some sort of rev indicator. However, now you mention it, it might be boost pressure? I'm not entirely sure if the 787B is naturally-aspirated or turbocharged though. Have you tried Googling it to see what you can find?

I think it is turbo pressure

The 787B is naturally aspirated so it's not boost pressure.
Maybe oil pressure.

First page has some info on the guages in the 787B.

It cant be oil pressure , it is 2 stroke fuel

From memory;

The top left is the fuel economy, how many litres per 100 kilometres.
The top right is the throttle.

It cant be oil pressure , it is 2 stroke fuel

What..? if memory serves the R26B is a four rotor 4 stroke engine. Not a 2 stroke..

The rotery engine in not really a 2 stroke or 4 stroke engine because its cilinder , the rotery engine doesn't have oil in the engine because the bearing in the engine need lubrication so tgats why the rotery engine have oil in its fuel an that we call 2 stroke fuel

The bearings are lubricated from the inside by galleries in the eccentric shaft. The oil injected with the fuel is to cool the rotors.
