<![CDATA[Turbo - No Fuel Flow]]>Hi there,

Been flying the normal commander all day and loving it ... great work, congrats!

However, jumped into the turbo to check that out and was a no go as could not start it. No fuel flow at all when trying to prime for start.

I have reloaded a few times but no luck sadly.

Anyone else having this issue?

All I can try now is uninstall and re install to see if any joy.

Again, thanks for the great work on this aircraft, some really different avionics to learn and play with.

Cheers
Matt

I find I need more like 5-6 seconds of prime rather than 2-3. Starts great every time after that for me.

The code is identical between the two airplanes, so I'm not sure what could be going on. Rest assured, I'll find it, though.

@Woolies This is the correct behavior. Only one magneto is equipped with an impulse coupling, which retards the spark timing for start.

Yes. Just tested again. No fuel flow showing during prime but tablet showing flow to engine and I managed to get the aircraft started.

However the FF gauge doesnโ€™t come alive until I go above about 1600-1700 rpm, until then it is in resting place below zero.

MSFS2024 btw

In the naturally aspirated version, you can see the fuel flow increasing during prime, but in the turbocharged version, this doesn't happen. There's an increase in fuel pressure in the line, prime happens, and the engine starts; you just can't see the fuel flow increasing during prime. I'm using MSFS 2020.

Did you check the fuel pressure gauge behind the throttles, or just the fuel flow?
