I just tried to restart an I-16, diving from 30,000 ft and it didn;t restart...

O.K. just did it again, this time the engine restarted and the prop freeze-up but the engine keeps running. This was on BOB single missions in simulation limited F/A where you give top cover for a Sqn of hurricanes, the radiater must get hit and engine overheats and stops. It may be a glich.

Do you have any way of making a short video, and showing us how to do it? Maybe your doing something we're not? Because I did what you said, and like Wissam, my props just stopped.

No way, i wish i could. That is why we need replay Ed.:)
All i forget to say i am useing the ace edge flight stick, but i do not know if that matters about restarting, and also in simulation i have to throttle back to 0% when landing and then throttle to about 10 or 15% when rolling down runway about 25mph and then 0% to brake without fliping. It works every time.

I thought the spitfire used a float type fuel injection

Update: The I-16 will restart to, but the prop will freeze-up when throttle up, But the engine is running fine. There is something wrong. A glich that need fix.
I mean you can here it fire up in about 3 hits, the sound effects are really good in this game.
This is on simulation i do not know if it works on the other 2 mods.

I am experiencing the same glitch! Every time I play the first Stalingrad mission my I-16 has an engine failure. Sometimes I seem to be able to avoid it by listening to the engine all the time and adding more throttle when it starts do die. However, often it just stops. Yes, and then the glitch: engine starts again, props still dead.

WTF? :confused:

Every time i have a plane engine stop from over heating or inverted to long i glide a little to cool if hot and then dive to restart the engine if i have plenty of Alt. Most of the aircraft engines will restart and run, but if you gun the throttle the prop will freeze-up. I do not know if it will be fixed in update but there is 2 glitches that need looking into.

For the devs:
Engine Restart, important for immersion in SP/MP. Very important, flaps not working some times in MP when spawn after crash in simulation if flaps are down or in combat, this is key to winning in a dogfight.

I have found some moor glitches but they are not something that is important.

great!!! doing russian campaign and the engine kept cutting out thought it was a bug doooh!!!! so kept restarting the game, now i know!!!

Also OFF TOPIC but i play realistic, how do you loop i try in the planes but as soon as i pull back i just stall and nose drops?!

Please help
Thanks in advance

Pull back more gently or decrease elevator sensitivity ;)
