Hi All

 

Can someone check their MSFS 2024 C172 Basic (Analog) and confirm they have no electrics for instrumentation, lighting etc

 

Thanks

Wayne

Yup. Doesn't start. It's the main plane I'd like to fly

Ctrl + E doesn't work?

I'm sure will get fixed but pretty poor

It's kind of funny when you think about it. I mean most first time simmers start on the runway in their Airbus these days and off they go but still....walk before you run is no longer useful advice.

Have you checked your bindings? You may have a device asssigned that has the things turned off - like a Bravo Throttle. 

Confirmed that it works fine for me, but I started by deleting all the bindings and started afresh

Seems a wider issue (though not logged yet), maybe leave a vote or comment also here:

For the folks who's 172 engine won't start, did you remove the engine covers by chance?  That was my issue the first time around.

The Cessna 172 G1000 variant works fine.  It’s only the analog gauge variant Cessna 172 that has electrical problems and won’t start.

And no it won’t start via CTRL-E either.

Utterly absurd....how embarrassing. They created a project with an unachievable goal. Basic project management would have been to scale down the drastic aircraft/aerodynamics model and UI, instead just focused on making 2020 v2 with seasons, satellite map upgrades and career modes.

Yep, the Basic is basically broken....... 🍿
