Hi Folks,I know this has been covered before, but I can't locate the fix for this.Started a flight in the Baron 58, but shortly after the the flight loads the engines shut down and I can't restart them.Could someone point me in the direction of the fix.Cheers in advance.

It could be several things; 1) If you are in a high altitude enviroment, you need to lean the engine before trying to start; 2) If you are using FSUIPC, calibrated your joystick with a throttle detent, you need to move the throttle slightly above the detent so negative numbers are not sent to the computer via FSUIPC.

Also Temperature has an effect.... engines may shut down if the outside temp is around 80 degrees. Just a tad of throttle will stop the engine stalling. :-)Pete
