cannot start the engine

Fishtorch

Before I bound the magnetos to a hardware controller, I was using the mouse too.
For me it worked by using the mouse wheel to take the magnetos up to BOTH, then left click (hold) and drag to START
Then release the left button when it starts

I can´t start any from Baron & Bonanza Professional Bundle. Only on MSFS2020. When I try on 2024 no way.

@marinhoc Would you mind sharing a video of what you're doing so I can help diagnose? I assume you checked the engine health, and you don't have any new hardware binding conflicts in MSFS 2024 that might be precluding an engine start?

Hi! I just have plug a Joystick Velocity One. I have a good computer run several planes Fenix, PMDG, etc. The engine forum do not allowed I upload video. I will upload on Youtube and share the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haEcSx0u5qY

None or very little fuel will reach the cylinders during priming if the throttle is at idle, hence the call for "Throttle - Full Open" in the checklist. If you want to see how much fuel is being injected into the cylinders check out the engine visualizer on the tablet. Let me know if you need anything else

I insisted, I tried, I insisted, I try and... I made it. Thanks for the help, now I'm happy as a lark.

Glad to hear it! Let me know if you have any more questions

I'm having issues starting all of the Professional Bonanza's ecxept the turboprop. I have Desktop Pilot's ignition panel and from reading the posts here my issue may be the spring loaded starter. I will try using my mouse to start next time.
I am also noticing that when I attempt starting, the mixture knob closes slightly despite being full forward on my Bravo controller.

Make sure you delete any bindings to the mag switch on your Bravo - it could be that.

Paladin906

Thanks. Yeah. I did that previously.
So I was able to get it started by first disconnecting the ignition panel. Even starting with the mouse was a little difficult. Left click and hold didn't work for me because the ignition switch still wanted to spring back to the both position. What worked was a continued activation of the scroll wheel of the mouse.
The cranking seemed to take forever prior starting.

I would look at how that desktop pilot is bound. I literally JUST built a dual mag panel using the dual mag 2865 from desktop aviator and mapped it right in MSFS 2024. For mine I have 5 switches for dial so I just mapped those to Magneto 1 (2) Off, Right, Left, and Start.

Paladin906

Thanks. Good idea. I'll change the bindings. I was able to use the ignition panel this morning but I had to hold it in the start position and use the mouse to keep it from springing back.
