Constellation Engine stutter and fe Shuts them down

Post by EmperorRPG »

i am a prepared V4 user and i recently bought the L049 constellation. the first couple of flights went without problems. But now every time i start the engines with or without the engineer in control oft the fe station the engines start to stutter. the engine rpm drops about 1000 rpm and jumps up again the oil pressure, duct pressure and fuel pressure al do the same thing. and if i leave the fe in contol of the station he shuts all four engines down after 10 seconds even in flight. i have done everything as described in manuals and you tube tutorials. but the engines keep acting up.

Hello,

can you let me know if you are running P3D as administrator?

What is your default flight, how are you loading into the connie?

thanks,
Lewis

hello,

i am running P3D as admin.
my default flight is the standard P3D: the F22 raptor at KVPS runway 19.
when i load the connie my engines are turning and then it automaticly loads the cold and dark startup,
and i hear the crew voices.

Thanks for the help guys
I found the problem, the settings matched the manual apart from one thing the auto mixture was still turned on.
I was shure i turned it off thats why i couldn't find the problem.
