Engine off

Hello everyone. Unfortunately, after upgrading to version 1.12.13.0, the sim is no longer usable. It happens that as soon as takeoff the engine goes off and the plane goes down. Or try to restart it immediately but after a while it turns off again. I’m trying a lot of planes, but the problem remains.someone knows how to solve.

One of the few planes that works is the Diamond DA40

These are the first steps to take.
With the sim running, if you are on the start up screen, from the top heading, select “Options”, or if you are already in the sim, press “ESC” on the keyboard.

  • Under “General”
    Set “Flight Model” to “Modern”, not “Legacy”.
  • Under “Assists”
    Set all “Piloting” assists to “Off”
  • When you are in the sim, from the “winged” sim icon, Open AI Control (icon to the right of the yoke icon), and ensure that “Control Aircraft” is “Off” (button placed to the left).

Next, and quite important, is to add deadzones to each axis for all your controllers. Approximately 5% should be enough, but there have been instances where significantly more was needed.
** This is for prevention of flight control issues, but in your issue, I would make sure your throttle axis is done as well.**

This all needs to be done.
Most times this cures the problem, and it any case, it must be done to troubleshoot the issue, if the problem persists.
So give this a try.
If you’ve still got the problem, then be sure and let us know.
