    Hi there,

     I have a problem whereby as soon as I turn battery power on from Cold and Dark, Engine 1 immediately spools up to 25% N2 and 4.2% N1 which clearly shouldn't be possible. I have tried uninstall and reinstalling but to no effect. Any ideas? Possibly a SU9 hit fix problem?
    
     Regards,
              Neil

      Hi, did you ever solve this? Same thing in happening to me too right now except both engines 1 and 2 starts spooling up.

      It seems that engine starters are constantly on but it is not indicated on overhead panel.

        This "feels" like a stray binding for engine or fuel controls related to a different plane. I occasionally hit weird issues like this when I forget to switch my TCA quadrant control profiles away from a320 because they are set to open fuel valves and pumps which I do differently in the 146 or Hawk. I end up effectively with conflicting commands issued which can flip-flop controls.

          @hollow Yes it turned out to be one of my engine knobs on my thrustmaster had been bound to the engine start command. Removing that fixed it. I still think there is a bug here though as the engine should not be able to spool up without air bleed either from the APU or externally.

            @ncrh01 The 146 / RJ uses DC electric motors to start the engines not air.
