Starboard engine goes full thrust below 500ft alt.

[John Fee]

I run FS2004 in XP. I just installed FSUIPC3989d after 3.98a and have had this trouble since. Before this, I was running an earlier version reasonably successfully. This particular engine problem occurs when flying a Q400 Dreamwings Malev addon. I use a Go Flight throttle quadrant.

All of a sudden I am getting odd effects. I have checked the axes and the calibrations a dozen times but I still cannot identify the cause of the problem. Throttles, rudder (Saitek Pro), brakes, prop pitch are run from FSUIPC; I use FS2004 to control the elevators and the ailerons.

I have attached the .ini file and would be grateful for advice.

I run FS2004 in XP. I just installed FSUIPC3989d after 3.98a and have had this trouble since. Before this, I was running an earlier version reasonably successfully. This particular engine problem occurs when flying a Q400 Dreamwings Malev addon. I use a Go Flight throttle quadrant.

All of a sudden I am getting odd effects.

If there's only a problem with one specific add-on, you really need to go to their support. You will need to provide more details in any case -- especially clarifying the statement in the title of this thread "starboard engine goes full thrust below 500ft alt" (?). What does that actually mean, and is that the sum total of your "odd effects" which otherwise you say no more about? Altitude above ground? So, on the ground? And as soon as you get to 501 ft the thrust cuts? And how on Earth can the altitude affect the thrust? They are completely unrelated. Sounds like you have some add-on doing wonky things. Try a process of elimination. Stop everything running except default aircraft, then go from there.

I'm sure it cannot be anything to do with an FSUIPC update, unless the wonky add-on was only working because of some bug now fixed in FSUIPC.

Regards

Thanks. I did not refer to other odd effects as I thought one thing at a time. (These included power surges when using the elevator; non-functioning reverse thrust on one engine; erratic prop pitch controls; slow throttle responses generally). Yes, I checked that only the elevator is assigned as an FS2004 control.

On approach all is fine, stable power both engines. At around 500 ft above surface the starboard engine goes to full thrust - uncommanded. This makes it practically impossible to land. Eventually, when both prop pitch controls are feathered I can land (not on the runway of course). At that stage the starboard engine remains at full thrust on the ground even when both throttles are at idle. Yes, it sounds crazy but it happens, and it happens every time, and at different airfields. It did not happen with earlier versions of FSUIPC which is why I think it might be FSUIPC-related. As you say, perhaps some bug has been corrected.

I have deleted the FSUIPC3989d.dll and re-installed the 3.98 version. I deleted the FSUIPC.ini file and am now re-allocating axes and re-calibrating. Hopefully, this will solve the problem.

John

P.S. At one stage I thought it might be related to disconnecting the autopilot. I flew an 18 nm final manually and the same thing happened.

And all this with all aircraft, or only that one? What other things are running? For instance, I note a reference to "vasFMC" in your INI file.

As I say, you need a process of elimination to see what is causing that mess of things.

Pete

[John Fee]

With FSUIPC 3.98, axis re-allocation, re-calibration, and with a new .ini file, the un-commanded throttle changes have vanished. Everything is working properly now. I've tested the 'problem' aircraft - the Q400 Dreamwings Dash 8, and other aircraft. My guess is that the .ini file posted above was corrupt in some way. I have no plans to install the FSUIPC3989d .dll in the meantime.

Thanks for the prompt support, Pete.

John
