Throttle & multi-engine problem

Postby z1010 » Mon Jan 10, 2005 3:34 pm

Airbus 380: all 4 engines work.

But when I move my throttle (on the joystick), only engine 1 gives power.

Following the instructions I have to press and hold the E and then, quickly, press 1, then 2, 3 and 4.
I have stopped the engines and started them again - nothing helps.

Can anyone help? I want all 4 engines to respond to the throttle.


Thanks!

Not quite the way you said.  You do not press and hold E down whilst pressing the numbers.

Press these keys in this sequence one after the other quickly

E,1,2,3,4

Do not hold E down why pressing the numbers!

If that doesn't work, try reloading the aircraft.

This is funny,

I just can't explain how funny this really is.

Son of a          , while slamming the buttons to the bottom of the key board until it quits working, the keyboard that is.   :D

OK NOW I get it, and also found out that these Dell keyboards arn't very tough. hehe
