Engine issues
-
I seem to having problems with GTS not starting up when button pressed on the throttle control unless I flick the engine on switch to start. Also engine shuts down after pressing escape to go into the msfs menu system? Also noticed that sometimes the engine on switch sticks on start and doesn’t spring back after returning form the main menu. Although with the engine then stopping it seems the only option is to restart flight.

@captain744 For the start, I hold the light button for a couple of beats instead of just press and release, until I see the GTS flag show. And I think the engine shutdown is because you have the mixture control mapped, even though the Hawk doesn't use mixture. Not sure which control, but I and others have alleviated the issues by unmapping that slider in the menu. Hope that helps.

@katchaplin yeah I had the mixture lever closed. That’s helped thx.

@captain744 Since I fly both the Hawk and the Warrior, I unmapped the control for the Hawk, since part of my shutdown on the Warrior is to set the mixture to cutoff. Most people don't seem to want to have separate control schemes for different aircraft, but I find it much easier than trying to remember what the different buttons and sliders are mapped to, as the Warrior and Hawk are just 'slightly' different aircraft.
