X-15 Take Off

Postby Bigal1001 » Tue Aug 04, 2009 9:27 am

Hey,
      i just got the FSX pack of the North American X-15 from Xtreme Prototypes. Anyway i cant figure out how to get the plane to go as im not sure how to start the engine and the throttle as it has other things to do before hand such as the fuel pump and oxygen switch.

if anyone knows how to start it can u plz tell me..

Thanks
:D :D

I'd imagine that they've run out of fuel.

It's a rocket..  It drops from the B-29 wing.. fires its rockets..  goes really really fast, and glides back to earth.

Check how much fuel you've got in it. You might accidentally only have 1% fuel on. That's what happened with the Mirage III I bought.

The X-15 has very limited fuel. If your not too into the realism aspect, you can give yourself unlimited fuel in the "Realism" settings on the UI Control Panel.

This is true, there was not enough fuel for the X-15 to last for more than 5 minutes.
