Rob,I have been using the (great!) Duke without any issues. Yet since I updated to V1.5 I cannot start engines unless I use CTRL+E.I am doing probably something wrong but I cannot figure out what. Can you please provide some suggestions of things I should be looking at to solve this problem?ThanksEdmundo

Hi Edmundo,This is strange because, if anything, we increased the reliablility of engine starting with stronger starter torque. You can access this parameter in the Starter Torque entry within the ENGINE section of the aircraft cfg and if necessary increase the torque value. But I suspect there might be other reasons for your issue. Please make sure you have put the mixture controls fully forward, unless you are at altitude in which case the mixture control might be better somewhat reduced.regards,Rob - RealAir

I had trouble starting the Duke until I realized that the fuel valves were both off. :(

Thanks guys for your input! Got it working!BestEdmundo

I have found starting the fuel pumps to boost the fuel pressure helps too. In hot weather I have found the pumps and a little open throttle to be necessary also."They will stop me from flying my Duke when they pry the yoke from my dead cold fingers"

give just about the most flexible options you could wish for. The circular motion of any control wheel does not have an "up" or "down".... that's why it is circular!Rob - RealAir

I know and appreciate very much the flexibility included. I truly seem to be the only one who finds this mousewheel thing annoying. I have so many other add-ons where it works that way: mousewheel up for switch up, down for swtich down, and I got so used to that. The duke seems to be the only add-on where this is counter-intuitive. But, I guess it's just me. It doesn't keep me from enjoying a great aircraft whenever I can! And as I said - your after sales support is stellar. No other developer comes even close.

Thanks for that. You can place the mouse over the switch and drag it towards you, which is "down" in your proposed orientation, or away from you, which is "up". What I meant was that the notion of "up" (mousewheel) differs among different users. Some see it as "forward" or "back". To me "up" means lifting something up, not turning something round.Best Wishes,Rob - RealAir

Hi,Could someone help meI bought the RealAir Duke B60 at simMarket sometime ago before SP1 and installed it. Recently I received an e-mail from simMarket telling me that the 1.5 update was available for download at my account. I downloaded the update and runned it and received the following message: "Setup can not create the following folder: \RealAir\duke09\AutoPlay\Audio" with the option to Repeat or Cancel. Repeat does nothing and Cancel is obvious, the update is not installed on either options.I thought in downloading the original installer and reinstall from scratch since the installer may already be updated to version 1.5 but I'm not sure of that since otherwise I would be advised to use it instead of the update.Please someone advise?Thanks n regardsALG

FWIW, I downloaded a totally new Duke (v1.5) and installed it without problems after first un-installing the original.

Hi Antonio,I received an e-mail from you at 3.30 pm today and gave you a full reply with the solution, which was sent half an hour later. Please look at your e-mail inbox. Thank you.Rob - RealAir

Hi Rob,Thank you for your kind reply. I have done as suggested, uninstalled previous installed and after making the download of the installer I have in my simMarket account I reinstalled it. Now I have a question, where in FSX or in the installer Can I verify that the latest version installed is the 1.5 ? because the size of my installer has not changed since the original.regardsALG

Check your Duke Config Panel. Top right corner should read V1.5

Have another look! Any rocker switch will toggle with either a mouse click or a wheel click.You can move the wheel up when the switch is down, and it will move up, just like you expect it to. :( Yes, you can also move the switch back down with the wheel (in either direction). So as long as you move the wheel in the samedirection as you want the switch to move, it will work for you.

Hi Thanks all for the feedbackI finally got the V1.5. I had to uninstall the original version, reinstall it again and finally installed the V1.5 updateRegardsALG

not quite true. which most add-ons, moving the wheel up switches the rocker up once, then nothing. with the duke, if you go UP another notch, the switch comes DOWN again, that's not intuitive. same in the other direction

Has anyone had any luck modifying the aircraft.cfg to make the pitot heat work again? (if it is at all possible to make it work via a tweak)
