skydriver Posted September 20, 2006 Report Posted September 20, 2006 Are there FSUIPC offset(s) for (e.g. B737) 'fuel cut off levers'? I can't see this mentioned in the list of offsets I have. I tried "Engine 1 Fuel Valve" just in case and this did not appear to do the job from what I saw. Are the 'fuel cut off levers' (on the throttle quadrant) mapped to offsets? Many thanks for any input - - SkyDriver
Pete Dowson Posted September 20, 2006 Report Posted September 20, 2006 Are there FSUIPC offset(s) for (e.g. B737) 'fuel cut off levers'? Yes, they are the engine Mixture offsets. If you've ever operated a Jet properly in any of Microsoft's flight simulators since FS4 (at least) you'd have remembered that fuel enable/idle is "Mixture Full Rich" and cut-off is "Mixture Full Lean" (usually assigned by default to Ctrl+Shift+F4 and Ctrl+Shift+F1 respectively). FS has never had any separate controls explicitly for jet start (fuel enable) levers. Please check offsets 0890 and the starter explanation in 0892. There are equivalent offsets for the other three engines. Pete
