JF-17 not powering up

[stoop]

Since yesterday's patch I have had 2 out of 4 occasions when starting in multiplayer that flipping the 3 switches, Battery, Main AC Generator switch and DC Generator Switch have not resulted in any power in the jet.  After waiting a few seconds for something to happen I had to ask the Ground Crew to enable ground electrical power to get the jet going.

Is there something I am doing that this startup fails for me so often - nothing else needs to be checked and enabled before hitting those 3 switches?

missed number of occurences I've seen

nope, it happens. Sometimes the ground crew forgets to check the battery level, and they do their checks and leave the lights turned on. Sometimes the batteries they put in just die.

Yeah, it’s almost always solved by re slotting. It’s the one bug Deka hasn’t been able to find the cause of

I seem to now have problems getting the jeff started from a cold start, even if I  follow carefully Chucks guide (including removing the ladder and covers).

Is there a totally reliable checklist for cold starts now ?

As stated in this topic, it is WIP.

But I also discovered another detail:
If you start a flight in the air (Multiplayer), and the battery problem is present (but you don't know it, because in flight the engine powers the plane) and you cut the power, the plane de-energizes completely and lifts the nose sharply to enter a reverse Spin.

@uboats

Since 2 last updates I've notice that the problem are solved...
I was lucky? or the problem is solved?

Thanks

EDIT. No, isn't solved...
