    ms2020 - 114NA

    Watched other video starts - no issues.

    Even with a short burst of prime fuel: -mix open, throttle cracked open: start cranking, the cylinders instantly are flowed with fuel.
    I have to start with mix fully closed, and open when fired up. None of video start up need to do this.
    And none of other BS aircraft have this problem
    . I am very careful to lean all the time. Even TO and landing I have some lean. Shutdown I always run at 1500 rpm, and slowly lean to cutoff for a good plug clean.
    .
    Not sure how to read tablet. Fuel line left from venturi , is it prime fuel? I cannot find the mixture valve either. Would help for troubleshooting to find location of it.

    . - BTW saving is a mess, but I guess you know it.

    Thanks for plane! Hard to imagine it did ground the Bonanza.

        @eker Indeed, this is the new fuel injector behavior mentioned above, which was much requested by my users. Let me know if you have any questions.

        I have received almost no complaints with my new state saving system, actually, which has been a delightful surprise, given that I'm still forced to use Asobo's cloud system. Can you elaborate at all, please?

          @Black-Square @eker Only issues I know of with the state saving is when you do not exit the sim using exit to desktop from the main menu. Aside from that occasionally the last thing I changed (for example closing the door of the aircraft) doesn't save presumably because I exited to the menu without giving enough time for the change to save to the cloud. If I wait a little bit after my last change before exiting to the menu and then close the sim normally I haven't had any issues myself.

          Also normal start does call for Mixture ICO for this particular engine...

            Thanks.
            Changelog explains my start issue. No doubt I watched pre 1.1 videos.
            Regarding state saving;
            I do shut down to black cockpit, but keep the key in place.
            Back to simulator:
            Keys often placed on altimeter. Bat - alternator - trim on - once even flap down. Frequencies and alt preset are saved.

            • But this is absolutely minor issues, takes only seconds to clear. If it is only me and the old mediocre PC, do not waste time on it. ---- And yes I do shut down using main menu.
              .
              Again - thanks for another wonderful stellar product and support.
