Thanks, thnaks, thanks ...... I just assigned the Buttom 12 from KBSim Joystick but had to close P3Dv4 as soon as I saw the email message so here now.AviationAtWar wrote: ↑04 Apr 2020, 17:47 Sorry, I either forgot or didn't realize you were using P3D. It looks like there isn't a default incremental decrease key command but increase is control+F3. I'm sure you can assign your own commands in P3D just the same as FSX.
The GPU is connected/turned on at the FE panel.
When starting, flip the switch for the inertia starter and wait until you hear it's speed is highest (only really applicable to the first engine since you won't be able to hear after that, but you can count off how many seconds that takes and apply it to the others).
Once the starter spooled up then click the prime switch, then go right to the starter engage switch. Mags on, and once the engine starts then move the mixture control to auto rich and turn the primer off.
I will check if the new Prop RPM decrease shortcut works in P3dv4. I will check on FSX sim as well.
I did the same procedures with engines starting except that I turned Primer Off first before Mixture Control to Auto rich position.
Also, I have seen in somewhere inside of A2A Forum some Pilot starts with engine 3 and others with engire 4. From my flights I have the sequence as engine 4, 1, 3 and 2.
Does it make any differences?
Thanks for your guidance
Edit #1: to decrease RPM I have the option CRTL + F2 according to the info posted in this thread. I can hold the RPM switch down in the Connie's Cabin in order to decrease the revolution. But, the shortcut CRTL = F2 pushes the RPM switch down and it stays down. Is there from the Asignment Options the right selection to activate the RPM switch so it can be handled like the mouse does? I mean to use a shortcut to decrease RPM but do not keep decreasing by itself.
Edit #2: found solution for the RPM shortcut. I activate from joystick the assigned CRTL+F2 to decrease the Revolution but as the rpm keeps reducing more and more I hit the other shortcut CRTL+F3 to stop. If I press again the shortcut CRTL+F3 then it will increase the rpm and it keeps increasing until I hit the CTRL+F2 which it will stop. So, now the RPM can be handled similar to via mouse over the RPM switch from Pedestal.
