A 300 premium Engine 1 no fuelflow

[KaiUweWeiss]

Maybe I'm too stupid a little bit: if I start the engines I use engine 1 as first. After its spooled up successfully, I start engine 2. Suddenly engine 1 goes down, I can't restart it anymore, there is no fuelflow it seems. I don't know why, switching X-Feed doesn't help. Please look at my screenshots, maybe you can see what I've done wrong. In FS2020, the same plane, verything works very well.

I figured out that this situation happens if I push back the engine start button to the middle. If I left it at start the engines doesn't spool off. In this situation APU-bleed remains permanently. Perhaps spooling off the engines happens due to bleed? It doesn't matter: either the start button or the bleed situation is responsible for engine 1 spooling down.

In this configuration the engine doesn't spool down and works properly. The same situation in FS2020: there is the engine start button in the middle and APU-bleed off.

Do you use by chance a Bravo throttle? One of the default bindings was preventing engine 1 to start correctly in my case. Once I had deleted all bindings except throttle axis, everything worked as expected.

[KaiUweWeiss]

Thank you, I'lltry that.

Hi,

I have the same problems. I use the Bravo throttle. There are no bindings on any axes. Cont Relight prevents the engines from shutting down immediately. After takeoff at the latest, I have a failure on engine 1.

It is always Engine 1

I flew the A300 for many hours in MSFS 2020. I can't remember any problems like that.

Hi there,

If any of you are using BeyondATC, please make sure you update to the latest version available and try again. We identified some kind of conflict with the version prior to the latest and it seems it has been resolved now on BATC's end. 

Thank you 🙂

I wanted to edit my post above, but the time was over. So here is the actual text:

 

No, the problem persists further more. I tried to describe it again using a translator:

I somehow can't handle the handling with the Inibuilds A 300-600R Premium engine 1 in 2024: during the pushback I start the engines as normal, first 1, then 2. If they are running stable, I switch the APU bleed to off APU and ignition at off too. And then engine 1 shuts down again. If I leave ignition on B, the APU on and its bleed also on, the engine stays on and I can take off, see picture 2. Now it goes on: at some point in the climb it will shut down again. No engine start either. Then the machine bobs slowly with one engine  at let's say 16,000ft, actually it should climb to 32,000ft and the yaw damper switches off. If I change the FL to 16,000ft (in the FMC and on the glare shield), the machine recognizes this as the cruising altitude, so far, so good. But suddenly engine 1 starts up, takes on the same parameters as engine 2, I can do ignition and turn off the APU, go to 32,000ft and continue the flight normally and end.

Why is that so? Is there something systemic I have overseen which doesn't play a role with the 300 in MSFS?  

Furthermore sometimes the engine shuts down even after pressing the P or Pause button, completely stupid! In the key assignment, P and Pause are only assigned toggle pause, nothing more.

That's how the engine spools up - it's stucking at this N2-level. You could think, the engine 1-selector at the bottom of the throttle-lever doesn't work. But I use it with my mouse, not with any button of my HC-throttle.

Is there no solution for this?

check that you do not have any mixtures active in the control assignment I had this problem 

[richboy2307]

Hi @KaiUweWeiss

As suggested by @Stratus903d make sure you do not have any controls assigned to mixture (Axis or Button) on ANY of the connected hardware. At the moment it does look like there is a conflicting keybind that may be affecting fuel flow to Engine 1.

The default profiles have a few assigned to Increase/Decrease Mixture as well as setting mixture to lean/rich specific to each engine.

Thanks! 

[ChrisRee]

There are a lot of mixture bindings on the keyboard, Bravo Throttle. Primary and secondary. The best thing to do is enter "mixture" in the search bar and you will be surprised how many bindings you will find. I have deleted all mixture bindings.

Important: There is a bug in MSFS 24 that partially resets the assignment. This can happen when you open the pause menu

[KaiUweWeiss]

Thank you, I'll try that soon and give feedback.

I have several profils for my planes like Ini, Fenix, props etc. So I can easily separate them and hopefully I'll have success. 

[KaiUweWeiss]

Yeah, mixture did the trick, now it works like a charme👍😊!

I wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year!

[richboy2307]

Awesome, glad to hear that.

Happy Holidays to all!
