Cannot Start Engines

Post by cchiozza »

I had to reinstall and now I cannot get the engines to start. I give it to the FE and when I click AuttoStart #1 spools up and then quits. I have fuel as well. Help Plz.

It sounds like you have auto mixture enabled in your sim. Please make sure it's un ticked. Also it would be useful to know what platform you are using e.g. FSX, P3D

It's described in the manual I think.

I'm sorry, but I don't have P3D. In FSX it's in Settings\Realism\Engines. I believe P3Dv3 is very similar to FSX in that area.

I hope this helps.
Kind Regards

I had the same issue. However the auto mixture was unticked. By ticking and direct after it unticking again the problem was solved.

I unticked the auto mixture and still no joy. Tried reticking still no joy. I do not understand. It worked before only after reinstall did this start.

Hello,

please check the rest of the settings and make sure they match the manual requirements.

When loading please do not use an A2A aircraft as your default flight and ideally just use a p3d default as your default flight.
