Just successfully started the vanilla DA62 from cold & dark twice. Once without the checklist, and again with it. I don’t understand any confusion with the checklist either. Elec Master goes on & off again during the inspection to check the fuel quantity. After that it goes on again for engine start and then stays on.
Bare minimum required to start (without the checklist):
- Fuel selectors on (two sliders by your right hip. All the way forward)
- Elec Master on
- LH Eng Master on
- Start Left (press & hold)
- Repeat steps 3 & 4 for RH engine
