Engine Starting Problem

Featured Replies

Hi Bryan.I have a serious problem about engines and need your help.Firs of all i'd like to explain the stiuation. I' m using Fs2crew with Fs passengeres (but i also start fs2crew wihtout pspax, and the problem still remains), main and sec buttons are set to TAB, and SHIFT+TAB respectively, on the keyboard.The problem is: After activating ES, when I push the main button (TAB) for the 1st time, FO selects the pack selectors off and calls "recall". Just after that, the captain starts to say "start 1&2 please" (without my main button command). Then all the things confuses at this point. My 2nd engine never starts (I' ve tried several times) at the end of ES. Last night there was another problem: None of the engines were starting. At this point I realised that start switches weren't moving.I think I'm missing something and need your help Bryan.Thank you.

Hi,Did you load the FS2Crew Panel CFG file?Were the fuel switches set to cut-off prior to engine start?Can you start Engine 2 manually?Try running the tutorial flight from the beginning.Try changing your joystick buttons assignments for the FS2Crew buttons to something different. Cheers,

Hi,Answers to all your questions are "yes". As I said my main button was "tab key". After your advise I assigned it to MS SW Joysticks button no7. Then all the problems melt away.Thank you very much.Best regards Tolga
