Using the king air analog msfs
-
Some times i found after starting engines and turning on the avonics to on setting up the flight plan etc the aircraft than loses all power to everything everything goes black. thought it was a cct breaker by chance nope, since i havnt turned on any failures etc, tried everything like starting engines again but unable to turn power on except by turning on the external power but than the right hand engine started without me touching anything. Only way was to restart msfs which solved it.
think i might have found the solution in another forum going to have to test it out
Just testing with no other addons than the TDS. I think I found the culprit. I had the props in the feather position. Checking the voltmeter, the generators were not providing power, and the battery was draining.
With props in the low position, generators are providing power, and the battery is charging.

Yes, this is a known issue with Asobo's turboprop simulation. The generators are erroneously connected to the propeller shaft RPM in free-turbine aircraft. The manual notes this problem, but I'm glad you found the culprit anyway. Enjoy!
