May 12, 201412 yr I have spent over 10 hours trying to start the engines on this air frat. What is the secret ?
May 12, 201412 yr Have you tried doing the tutorial that is given with the product and there a excellent tutorial written by a rw q400 pilot on the majestic produc page. Plus you havnt said what you have tried and done to start the engines. also there are lots of utubes out there on how to start the majestic as well I7-8700k,Corsair h1101 cooler ,Asus Strix Gaming Intel Z370 S11 motherboard, Corsair 32gb ramDD4,, gtx 1080ti Card, RM850 power supply Peter kelberg
May 12, 201412 yr It would have really helped you if you went through the tutorials available... Failing that, you could look into the airline2sim video course... it teaches a lot about real world operations in the Q400 as they relate to the Majestic simulated version... well spent $25 in my mind... In those 10 hours, you would have learned how to set up the aircraft from cold and dark, with a description of the systems in basic terms, as well as performed a number of flights in flight training scenarios...

September 24, 201411 yr Sarting the Q400 is quite easy: batteries, power one MCDU request GPU and go. My concern is that my FO is a bit lazy. :rolleyes: He do not help at all powering the aircraft nor doing anything else. Times to times he push some test but that's all. I'm used to FS2crew PMDG NGX, at leat this FO works a bit for me Is it due to the fact that Q400 receive their Dash powered mot of the time ? Patrick Sourrouille Nantes 44 France
November 7, 201411 yr PSour23 - I agree with you 100%. I expected more from FS2Crew with the Q400, similar to the PMDG 737NGX. I end up turning on most of the switches myself and can't get the lazy FO to start the engines. Nice FS2Crew got 40 USD from me for a lousy product.
November 7, 201411 yr Make sure the ignitions are on as well- the startup situation sometimes has them in the off position, thus after switching the start selector and pushing start and throwing the CLs forward, nothing happens. Just double checking... Brendan R, KDXR PHNL KJFK Type rated: SF34 / DH8 (Q400) / DC9 717 MD-88/ B767 (CFI/II/MEI/ATP) Majestic Software Q400 Beta Team / Pilot Consultant / Twitter @violinvelocity

No issues here with my fo starting the engine I suggest reading the flight tutorial that came with the fs2crew since you are missing some steps I7-8700k,Corsair h1101 cooler ,Asus Strix Gaming Intel Z370 S11 motherboard, Corsair 32gb ramDD4,, gtx 1080ti Card, RM850 power supply Peter kelberg
