CRJ 700 Engine 1 Problem

[macpilot 22]

I have been trying for a couple of days to find out why my eng 1 N1 doesn't go above about 20. Never being able to get full power. I have search and tried every thing relating to this. I have the Honeycomb Throttle. I've set it up for Single, Twin TBM900, 2 engine jet and 4 engine jet. I modified the 2 engine jet profile for the CRJ. That profile throttle has no problem with the default 2 engine jet. Yes I setup the EFB in the CRJ throttle. I start with the ready for taxi mode. Eng 2 is powered up and runs fine. In my research I found the P3D version of  the CRJ had similar issues. Nothing on the FS2020 version. So I must be missing something.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You.

did you click the little red lever behind the throttles to unlock them and move them forward from the cut-off position?

Have you calibrated your throttle?

The EFB it looks like this.

Yes to red levers.

Yes to EFB Calibration. But I am not sure I'm doing it right. Meaning the raw input numbers change when I move and set the Honeycomb throttles. But the throttles in the aircraft don't move. So i have a hard time seeing TOGA, Climb, and Idle. Is this the way its supposed to work?

Thank You.

also yes to turning the fuel pumps on? 20%n2 is actually the max n2 you'll get without ignition.

I had the same problem with Bravo used for throttles.

I had to unbind all the switches except the Gear Levers and then it worked finally.

One of the switch bindings was interfering with the #1 engine. It would not ignite.

If you are not using the Bravo it is probably another peripheral controller that has constant on switches. Try unbinding all constant switches.

And the GOLD Medal goes to 177B. You were spot on. That solved the issue. If you were closer to me I would buy several rounds.

 

Thank You
