I have just installed JBK's comet 1 and 2. I am using the 2d panel {dont like virtual cockpits} The a/c flies very well ,problem is after you land and apply the brakes to stop so do the engines! Makes taxing rather difficult.How can I cure this without having to restart the engines while I am in the middle of the runway.

Another user and I notified this to Jens on the SimOuthouse forum.
Jens answered that this did not occured on his computers where he tested his aircraft, however he advised us to change a paramter in the aircraft.cfg. Here is a quote of his message there:

I thought I had eliminated this problem (the model works fine on both of my computers). Open the aircraft.cfg file, find the line

min_throttle_limit=0.05

in the [GeneralEngineData] section.

Increase the value a little bit, for example to 0.06 and see if it works. If this is not enough, repeat the procedure. Just don't go too far ;-)

Best regards

Jens

I didn't test that yet. If by chance you find a suitable value, it would be cool if you could tell it here

By the way, here are two screen to show which plane we're talking about. It was made by Jens B. Kristensen and it is uploaded at avsim.

Thanks Daube. Will try it out. Just have not had the time yet. Will let you know how it turns out.

Okay Problem fixed I think. Had to set min. throttle limit to .09 for model 1 and from .02 to .05 on model 2. So decided to investigate further and found it is a combination of fuel flow scalar and min throttle limit. increase fuel flow anf decrease throttle limit and vice versa. There is a difference between the 2 models. I believe they had different engines.

The Comet 1 had DH Ghost and the Comet 2 had RR Avons
