Hi,
again a stupid question. as i was flying the other day, i pressed E 1 by accident. when i was on approach i was checking my thrust and decided i needed more. when i added more my aircraft just sudenly swept to one side. I checked my throttle levers and found out tht Engine 1 was about 93% and Engine 2 was about 74%... I tried pressing E then 1 and 2 but nothing. in the end i turned of the enigine 2 and landed somehow...

Any help appreciated.
oh yeah...Aircraft Meljet 777-300 using default 777 panel.

Pressing E1 selects the individual engine...... It also overrides any autothrottle settings. Therefore if you had the trottle on your joystick set at 50% then engine 1 would  drop to 50% power.

cheers

can i get both engines synchronised?  ???

You're supposed to be able to in fs2002 by pressing e 1+2, but it never worked for me.  This is fixed on 2k4.  For 2002, I always had to reload the aircraft in order to equalize the thrust.

Pressing E,1, 2 always works for me on 2K2,  otherwise you could try pushing E then 3 perhaps.

hey ashar wats up?

i had this problem and i found a solution. you hold E and press 1 and 2 in quick succsesion and it should work if not, well..............  ;D

lol

I changed the key commands... I made Engine shutdown B and engine startup E... therefore whenever you shut your engines down just hit the engine startup button... It takes a second for the engines to startup due to the power produced by them and their size... If you do this on an approach you risk a stall or a crash... So best thing to do is change the assignments on the engine shutdown command to a key that you dont normally go near while flying...

Hope that helped...
