Good stuff, chart updated.

I'm wondering why you, orionredwing and Martin are not getting limp modes after losing power. In my case last year, pre-OC, it was a matter of 30 secs at most between power loss and limp mode. The vast majority of times it was an "engine malfunction, reduced power" error but once or twice I saw a red thermometer on the screen with a warning of critical temperature reached.

Is this typical in your runs? (power loss/no limp mode)
