Hi there

Have recently purchased NGX, installed fine but having a strange one and wondered if anyone has had a similar issue. I go through pre start and start up fine, engines fire i do my after start checks then goto advance throttles which is registered by the throttles in the ngx cockpit moving but no thrust on the eicas and no engines turning?. I have my throttles and nearly everything through fsuipc and have them assigned as "throttle1" but not calibrated as per numerous forum posts. As the throttles are advancing in the NGX cockpit whether i advance my saitek or press f3 this leads me to believe it isnt a software issue but a newbie pilot issue but for the life of me im stumped,

any advice most welcomed

I had a similar problem and it was because of FSUIPC.  I suggest deleting the entire 737 section of your FSUIPC.ini file, and starting over.  If that doens't work, try switching to FSX-controlled axes for this aircraft and see if the problem persists

FSUIPC works fine with the Saitek and Go Flight TQ's.  If you set the throttles correctly you shouldn't have any problems.  The key is to make sure that you DON'T calibrate the axis, just assign the axis.  Also you need to make sure that you have deleted any throttle assignments in FSX.  Your problem sounds more likely that the engines are not started if you don't get any readout on the EICAS or see the fan blades turning.  Check the tutorial that comes with the NGX and make sure that you follow the procedure for starting correctly.
