Are you talking about the real plane or the flightsim model?

Ctrl E to start the engine?

is fuel cut off?

is it compatible with FS9?

Not sure which plane you are talking about and where it is

Model works in FS9 and prop spins, very nice too I might add, one of my favorites. So something else must be wrong.

No, I did not Felix, just popped 'er in there.

The hardest part was finding a sound file that I liked for it. Found one, but still do not have the screeching prop, not so sure that I want it. LOL

I have heard steam turbines with a supersonic blade tip speed, after it has passed through a 6" thick steel casing and thick insulation. It was very irritating. LOL

Trimtab, my model is from Ito and is designated for FS2002 and Fs2004. Got it from here or Avsim or Flightsim.

The only models I have seen that had prop problems were either corrupted downloads or the old Fdfs models for FS2002 only.

You shouldn't have to do anything to it other than alias to a sound file that suits you.

Maybe you need to re- download it? Is it installed correctly?

Sorry, do not know how much experience you have.

   Thanks , it must be that it is a 2002 download; as you know some work and some don't. I should have looked to see whether or not it was" G-Max" created. will download it again.

Fdfs 2 works in FS9, just not Fdfs (if you want a propeller spin anyway ;) ).

Forget one thing. It gets overspeed warning about 475Kia and starts that annoying wobble. So Felix is right, you need to make a couple of changes.
