I have not seen this problem and to be honest I am not really sure what my rpm is when I shut down. I do know I am at full idle and engine has cooled down before I shut it off. I am more concerned about rpm of engine, at this time of year, at start up. I appreciate the info and will take note of this in the future. My 912UL is on a Lambada and at 1320 lbs gross, it is off the ground in less than 500 ft on a cold morning and climbs to whatever height at 60 knts with no problem. It is amazing. I am used to 300 HP to the side. When I first started flying it I wanted to get out a push. Now I really enjoy it as long as I am not taking a long trip.
