• 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.

Is it possible to have a 1 minute start up time?

Hey all,

Is it possible to have a 1 minute startup time? Turbine engine, spool up, and ignite, get to idle. Approximately 1 minutes.

How would you do that? Would the sound for starter continue to run? Not quite sure how FS calculates this.

Technically, probably though I wouldn't want to have to test it myself.. The startup sound file would have to be the correct length or it would replay repeatedly.

Messing up 1505 can also ensure your aircraft's engines don't work at all.

I think it is harder to model a cartridge start of a turbojet. From cartridge ignition to combustion takes about 5 seconds and after 10 you can slam the power on and begin to take off. 15 seconds later you are airborne. Of course you cannot do it using the normal set up, must use Simconnect and I think that may be the best solution for any radical departure from the norm.

table 1505. the throttle will be ineffective until the spool up completes. this can be set from infinite (the ignition will never spool), to instant.


No need to use the start up sound if you know what you're doing, otherwise, yes you need a longer file.
