Nr and Ng/N-1....are better....as Collective Postion will not confuse that.
Just a technique I liked. I imagine a scenario in cruise where I detect abnormal high or low RPM. That's confirmed quickly with a glance at the rotor tach. Looking at Torque I will see split needles which very cleary (at least to my eyes) indicate which engine is high and which is low. Works for me. I hope I didn't imply that N1 info was somehow excluded during the evaluation. That would be silly.
