Classic British Flight Sim

Hi,

I've encountered a strange and not seen before problem with the Prop levers not holding high revs for reciprocating engined aircraft. It seemed to start when I shut down a helicopter. I can't get any of the planes out of low-rev mode, and the helicopters won't lift off the ground.

I'm sure there must be a solution - anybody help ?

Hi there
Have you tried re-calibrating your joystick?
Sometimes, just going into that mode will let you test, and it may be OK without jumping through all the hoops.

Mike,

Not tested that. I have no joystick setting for prop pitch but will give it a go. Thanks

Try Cntrl+f4 on the keyboard...This should select pitch to fully fine. Then see if the levers work.

Peter,

I have the keys set up and the key will lift the prop pitch levers to max revs but they then Revert back to low revs even with the key depressed

Hi,

Found the problem - corrupted FS9.CFG. Restored it from a backup and all happy now

Well bless my soul.. good find Degsy
