MiGCap1 Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago No matter what I do, and I hadn't any problems to get the engine running before the update. Anything new in the procedure I have overseen? http://www.instagram.com/spetersen13/?fbclid=IwAR07OCbRZX6qISe0fS8iUQfzts_iazbm7UEsxiKNnqviADGTaRWJJN7iAws http://www.facebook.com/spetersen13/
MiGCap1 Posted 22 hours ago Author Posted 22 hours ago Before the update, it worked smoothly. Starter engaged, stabilizing at 700 rpm, moving mixture to auto lean, waiting a little bit, moving to auto rich, disengage the starter and it runs perfectly. Now it stops working after a few seconds at 700 rpm, at mixture cut-off, auto lean or auto rich, starter still engaged or disengaged after some seconds. Nothing works. I tried everything. All controls move into the right direction visually. http://www.instagram.com/spetersen13/?fbclid=IwAR07OCbRZX6qISe0fS8iUQfzts_iazbm7UEsxiKNnqviADGTaRWJJN7iAws http://www.facebook.com/spetersen13/
Ronin24601 Posted 22 hours ago Posted 22 hours ago What works for me is as soon as the engine catches, move the mixture to auto-lean and disengage the starter. (I.e. don't hold the starter after the engine has caught) 1
GTFreeFlyer Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago Nothing different on my end. Same procedure as before. You didn’t mention whether or not you prime the engine and open the throttle 1 inch before starting. Those steps need to be done. I also take fuel from the reserve, not sure if it matters for startup, but that’s what the procedure calls for takeoffs and landings. After priming 5 seconds, both mags on, battery on, fuel pump on, throttle 1 inch open, RPM max, mixture idle cutoff, and fuel tank set to reserve, my crank procedure is as follows: Hold starter until RPM gets around 500, wait a second, go straight to auto rich, wait another second, release starter. Works every time. Sometimes I gently pump the throttle forward just a bit immediately when releasing the starter and then set it to 750 RPM, just in case it wasn’t getting fuel.

MiGCap1 Posted 15 hours ago Author Posted 15 hours ago That’s exactly how I’ve done it before and after the update. Before it worked perfectly, now the RPM drops after one or two seconds and the engine becomes silent. http://www.instagram.com/spetersen13/?fbclid=IwAR07OCbRZX6qISe0fS8iUQfzts_iazbm7UEsxiKNnqviADGTaRWJJN7iAws http://www.facebook.com/spetersen13/
LeCuvier Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago I executed the start procedure exactly as described in the EA Guide, and it worked. Except I never saw the "Engine primed" message, maybe I was not looking where I should.

Art-J Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago I recall reading that info about that "primed" message in EA guide is a leftover from earlier development phase, and you will not see it in current game verion. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.
