slimakwielki Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 While doing some training fly I wanted to check what would happen once I switched off all fuel pumps. I was hoping as naturally to lose both engines, however that didnt happen and dont happen at all ! You can increase collective and ka50 acts as normal (with fuel pumps on). Is it a bug or there is some kind of logic/technical stuff behind it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate--IRL-- Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The fuel is fed by suction from the engines, the pumps are to kickstart that feed IIRC.

Gonzo01 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Yes, and to ensure steady fuel pressure, i think. Nate is right, they also supply a steady flow of fuel during high G maneuvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
