Citation CJ4 power fail

I can not climb to FL 230, because power fail; and I can not do nothing to stop the descend. I am wondering what was the problem.

If you have a hardware mixture control, you might have touched it while it was in the cutoff position.
Check your bindings. This double engine failure looks like the fuel flow has been cut off.

Really, in a moment of the flight, Engine RUN/STOP 1/2 was in STOP, but I press RUN, but the problem I had told did not resolved.

I don’t have the CJ4 installed and I can’t remember if MSFS simulates wind milling starts.

Once the engine starts to spool down, simply turning on the fuel flow might not be sufficient.

Even IRL you will need to follow the normal engine start procedure in many cases.

I noticed strange engine behaviour on the Cessna Citation too a few days ago, suddenly the full throttle power went down to 80% and a few seconds later to 70% when doing some excessive maneuvering while low flying with outer-view camera for screenshots over the Vancouver DLC.
I wondered why the engine went more and more silent and I looked into the cockpit … and N1 was down to 70%.

Maybe it´s a new realism setting for engine failure when overheating and overstressing the engines?
Sorry I don´t know this plane and it´s technology and engine behaviour very well and I also use the GitHub realism mods for it.
I have no idea what happened.

Sounds like a double binding issue between engine and view controls to me.

No engine realism setting would cause a partial RPM loss.
