Low voltage with a new aircraft (just installed)

Post by gerod »

Hello,
I was finally able to install the comanche 250 1.6.2 and before I could even start I saw the message “low voltage”. After correction via the tablet everything seemed normal but no start was possible in automatic or manual mode: the propeller turned very slowly in jerks and the battery drained. Switching to “cold and dark” didn't stop this jerky rotation and I had to stop the msfs session.
Of course I searched in the forum, but all problems of this type occurred after several hours of normal operation. In this case, the engine is at 0 hours of operation.
Thank you for explanations
Best regards

According to the gauges you have no fuel and no fuel pressure. Have you fueled the plane and down between the seats are the fuel valves.

Cheers

Well, I'm glad to hear that you got the Comanche updated so you can enjoy it!

Regarding your particular issue though... what Roger said below.

The starter's working exactly like it should...even to the point of building up the oil pressure in the engine. Sadly, the engine will remain at 0 hours until you put gas in the plane...and turn a fuel valve on... :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Rob

Hello,
I'm so stupid. As far as this “fuel load” aspect is concerned, it didn't occur to me that this aircraft would be different from those normally offered, which already have a 50% fuel tank, but it's clear that, concerning all other aspects, this makes it even more interesting and immersive than the other aircrafts on offer. I'd be a lot more careful with the next false problem I come across. On the other hand, the link between battery level and tank level wasn't necessarily obvious.
Thank you again.
