Plane Shuts Down Using ESC Pause

[OwlInFlight]

Basically, topic. Pausing for any length of time just shuts the whole plane down. I discovered this at FL250.

Every time, several planes I have do this.

Engines shutting down when pressing the "ESC" key is usually caused by MSFS reducing the "MIXTURE AXIS" value to "0" during the pause screen. This will typically only affect jets where you don't have a physical mixture axis available on your external hardware that is constantly setting a greater value.

The solution for this is to go to MSFS Options > Control Options and search for "MIXTURE" on all of your controllers and delete any controls assigned to any of the mixture axis assignments.

@mark I don't have any mixture axis assigned on the Bravo profile I'm using. I also don't have any keybinds assigned. Should I assign an axis and just keep it at max?
