Hello all

 

I have been looking through the forum for the following problem:

FO: Startlevers?

Me: Cutoff

FO: Please double check that!

 

This happens to me 99.99% of the time.

Cicling throug cutoff and detent did not do the trick for me.

 

All the rest is working perfectly!!!!

 

My specs:

Windows 7 Pro 64

Nvidia GTX 480

OS on Solid state disc

FSX on E drive 1t

All other programs on D drive

FSX, AES, AS2012, FSInn, TrackIr 5

 

Plse any suggestions, not a fatal problem, just a pitty :Thinking:

^{If I am understanding your problem correctly the easiest way is to get the FO to shut down the engines. I get him to do this and so have no problem with the start levers. Command is Shutdown engine number one (then 2).}

Hello William,

 

Sorry should have told you all it is at the pre flight checklist

 

Pieter

No problem Pieter. The levers should be at cutoff already - are they not? Are you using a saved flight startup?

Is this the only "double check that' or 'are you sure' that you're getting? I had this problem as well and Bryan helped me out with it. Reinstalling FS2Crew (without uninstalling) fixed it. Give that a shot.

Are you using external hardware?

 

If so, ensure your start lever switches are in sync before starting FS2Crew. Try cycling them.

Hello all,

 

Thanks for the reactions.

 

Yes startlevers are in cutoff position.

Yes I'm using a saved startup position

This is the only "blib" I have all the rest is well, with the exeption that I do not seem to be able to learn my comp. the word "units". :Cry:

Yes I did uninstall and reinstall FS2crew

No I do not use extarnal switches.

 

Will try to reinstall without uninstalling

 

rgds Pieter

Pieter,

 

Try it without the saved situation file. Saved situation can cause funky problems sometimes.

 

Units:

 

Remember it needs to be said like this:

 

* Example responses for the 'Stabilizer Trim' challenger.

 

Four Point Zero Units

Four Point One Units

Six Point Eight Units

Seven Point Five Units

Hello Bryan,

 

For one reason or another the computer does nor want to swollow the word "units". Added it to the dictionairy etc. Even if I say only units it keeps asking for the setting. In the end it switches through after I say "set"

But the problem of the starter levers still persists

 

rgds,

 

Pieter

Hi Pieter,

 

You can't say "units" by itself.

 

You have to say, for example, "five point five units".

 

Try doing it that way.

 

As for the Start Levers: Hard to guess. Try using the default PMDG livery as a test.

 

Cheers,
