OK, I adjusted the starter - not sure if that's correct, but it seemed to start the engine. This is the diff with what's in JSBSim CVS: -- start -- RCS file: /cvsroot/jsbsim/JSBSim/src/models/propulsion/FGPiston.cpp,v retrieving revision 1.9 diff -r1.9 FGPiston.cpp 201c201 < StarterHP = sqrt(MaxHP) * 0.2; --- > StarterHP = sqrt(MaxHP) * 0.4; 583c583 < HP = StarterHP + ((480 - RPM) / 10.0); --- > HP = StarterHP + ((480 - RPM) / 8.0); 596c596 < //cout << "Power = " << HP << '\n'; --- > // cout << "Power = " << HP << " RPM = " << RPM << " Running = " << Running << " Cranking = " << Cranking << endl; -- end -- Maybe this will help.
