• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Connecting starter to secondary function?

Hello,

I have an aircraft that does not have a manual starter so the only way to start the engine is ctrl + e. In the real aircraft, the jet engine is started by moving the throttle lever to the rear in what would be a thrust reverse location (engine does not have thrust reverse). To make it a bit more realistic, is it possible to add a starter and tie it to the reverse trust command since my throttle quadrant has the capability to move the throttle lever into reverse thrust?

Thanks a lot.
 
Generally speaking the throttle should be in the fully closed position for jet engine start. That is usually the "same" throttle postion for selecting reverse in the sim.
The default selection for reverse thrust is F2 so just disable that and you won't have reverse thrust.
