Looks like I am the only one who cant start this plane. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

Everything is off. Idle Feather- batteries-Wait  for Garmin -fuel pump -manual ignition-  push start.

Little sound and then nothing.

Is there a fuel valve somewhere I have to switch.

Also have a generator circuit popped out on the left bottom dash. (Is this normal)

Tried everything last 3 hours.

I am sure its me, I just cant figure it out.

Yes followed the video

You blew your generator/starter. Go into maintenance page in the EFB, and fix the generator, one of the green dots next to to windshield. Once that is fixed reset the circuit breaker for the generator. And try to avoid running the starter for longer than 30 seconds so this won't happen as it will break it as in real life.

Inside the manual.. go to FAQ, first question, get the manual and it will be there.

Guys this is a great video to watch that will help to set your harware, etc.

Moderators, this video keeps being remove, can you guys please leave it? it is approved by ME, the developer of the product.. this is to help Customers to configure the hardware, no need to keep removing this message pls. If you have concerns contact me via PM.

Anyone taken this beauty up in VR yet?  Would love to hear some impressions.

Bingo. Did not realize I had to click on the dots to verify. Though I would get some sort of message.

Started like a charm. Knew it was me.

Thanks

I thought doing an engine overhaul would fix everything but I guess not

Sorry but where is manual? I looked at LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore\fsreborn-aircraft-fsr500\SimObjects\Airplanes\fsreborn-fsr500\ but I can't find it there

The fault was the starter / Generator not the engine. Also be aware your Generator Circuit Breaker might be popped out now.. so.. check it is pushed in!

Open the Tablet EFB on your left, click on the FAQ button.. then on the first question in the FAQ you will find the link to your manual and also 5 video tutorials..

Let me know if you get this sorted now.

Hi simbol!

I want to thank you so much for this gem I absolutely love it! At this price with this quality I feel like I steal it.You get a new customer for the future project!

Best regards

Quick question.  What year is your Piper M500? Every screenshot I'm seeing of the cockpit has a small digital artificial horizon/compass on the left side of the G1000 on the pilot's side. Just wondering.🍺

Good question, there do not seem to be any backup instruments on the flight deck, is that correct?

I have, using Pimax Crystal. Looks great overall; my only mild critique would be that it is so new looking some might think it looks a bit artificial. I'm not a fan of the super weathered looks especially for newer planes but the cockpit is so unblemished it almost looks to good for even brand new if that makes sense.

Can't see any co-pilot or passengers in the cockpit even when fully loaded. Not sure if the passengers were ever supposed to be visible like the PC-12 but thought the co-pilot would. Empty planes always seem odd to me and soulless when the rest of the modelling and systems are so good. I'd prefer a pilot body too for VR even if it isn't fully functional.

The prop is distracting to me; wish the strobe effect texture could be turned off. It moves around a lot even with a constant prop speed which I don't care for. With it straight ahead of you it's hard to miss.

One visual oddity for me in VR is the lighting appears to make the wing vortex generators appear and disappear with just slight changes of head movement so as you look out the wing if you change head position at all the vortex generators are basically changing length, as in you always see the ones closest to the cockpit but the ones farther out are not shaded and appear to appear/disappear. But maybe that is just related to my visual sim settings; but I'm running a powerful system and they're all set pretty high.

Overall it's quite enjoyable and I look forward to flying it.
