Title: Strange engine bug
Post by: Widewing on September 05, 2006, 01:36:49 PM
Flying the A-20G, start both engines at the same time and go flying... Later, when I landed, I shut off the engines one at a time. Upon restart, the aircraft would not taxi straight, but in a circle, as if one engine was not running. Rudder and brakes do not overcome the tendency to turn.

So, I played around and found that whatever engine was shut down first, upon restart, the plane taxied as if the engine was still shut down. I could get this effect in either direction depending upon which engine I shut down first.

To fix the problem, you must restart both engines at the same time.

My regards,

Widewing

If you shut down Engine 1 first, after restarting engine 2 did you hit Shift 1 to restart engine 1 and hit Shift E to control throttle on both engines?

IE:

Shift 1 - shut down engine 1
Shift 2 - shut down engine 2

Restart Engine 2
Shift 1 - Restart Engine 1
Shift E - Control both engines with throttle

After you re-started the engines one at a time, did you "select all" before throttling up? check your gauges, I'm guessing one of the engines is still idling, the throttle only inputting to the last selected engine.
