June 8, 20205 yr Flying the PMDG 737NGXu and during pushback (using UGCX) I asked the FO to start engine 2 - He immediately said "Oil pressure" then "Starter Cutout" then "Engine Stable". N2 is not even to 10 % and he has said everything he normally says during the start up process. This happened twice. Then during the start of engine 1 - same issue with the timing of his comments but the start up stops due to lack of air pressure. The APU was turned off (when this happened I am not sure) so I was faced with either a cross bleed start (which I have never done) or a restart of the APU. Any ideas? Franklin Duncan

Question: During engine start, the FO says "STARTER CUTOUT" way too soon and starts his after engine start procedure before I even started the engines. Answer: You have a button or hardware lever assigned to the FS "MIXTURE CONTROL" command/event. Delete that. FS2Crew reads the position of MIXTURE CONTROL to determine the position of the Start Levers. Cheers, B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
June 8, 20205 yr I have the FS2Crew Button Control for the PMDG 737NGXu and have never had the issues reported. All done as per SOPs for me. Rick Almeida
June 9, 20205 yr Author Bryan, You were right. I had reinstalled FSUIPC and forgot to make the axis assignments specific for GA aircraft -which need mixture control and jets - which do not. Changing the NGXu to a profile specific without mixture control solved the problem. Franklin Duncan Franklin Duncan
