timc Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I watched one of the start up videos and followed the quick start guide but I cant get the fuel panel indicators to change from red to green. These are the DEP. CENTRAL, DEP. DER and DEP ?? which are white until I start up the GPU. They then turn red and stay that way. What do I need to do so that these go green - as they do in the start up video? Thanks, TimC
JuanOscar Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Pumps needs to be energized then, pass the switches from off to auto. The transfer flag indicator it will pass to green if there is something to transfer... If you start the mission with low fuel quantity, then only fuselage tank will contain fuel, and central wing and outer wing tanks will be empty and in red, so if you pass to auto, and they are in red, the pumps will be disconnected. In manual, pumps will be working even if there is no fuel to transfer, so you can damage them. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
timc Posted January 26, 2015 Author Posted January 26, 2015 Ok, thanks. I was starting the mission with about 30% fuel so it makes sense that there's nothing in the other tanks.
Tango Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 The standard fuel config is 2600 lbs of fuel (62%). This will fill only the fuselage tank and central wing tank. Best regards, Tango.
