What version of the game do you have? Also
give a littler more info about the problem.
Do you get the plane in the air?

The I-153 and a few other planes with float carbs and not fuel injection with cut out if you pull negative G's. Watch it when dropping your nose in a hurry.

I am running 4.09m with UP 2.0 I am getting the plane off the ground but the engine cuts out shortly after. Also happens with other bi planes. Have been times when i have been able to restart the engine but not many.

I do think this is the problem. If you pull Neg-G's the engine will STOP DEAD.
Try not to do a NOSE over but roll your plane to dive.

Depalmer hit it dead on - read his post.

Hi

I recall this happening when i started as well.

Are you using prop pitch, radiator etc...?

Take off- 100power/100pitch
flying- radiator open 80power/80pitch
combat-100power/100pitch


try the above until you get the hang of it. :wink:

Thank you all for the help. I think your right about the nose of the plane. Diving to quick causes the problem.Ill try the prop pitch. THANKS AGAIN.

Glad to help. I still sometimes forget and cut out my I153's engine from negative G's.
