Context: H145/H160 from Community or H225 1.0 in the default PD edition.
Similar MSFS 2020 issue: Works fine on MFS20
Bug description: Helicopter engine is not running when on the ‘ready to fly’ screen. The Cabri and other aircraft are running, mine trigges engine start from zero.
Repro steps:
Load H225 on the runway
When you get to the 'ready to fly’s screen
Observed: helicopter engine is not running, rotors are either off or starting to turn
Expected: the rotors should be near flight power when starting
Now if you click ‘ready to fly’, something happens and the startup is skipped as you portal to the cockpit. On H145/H160 you get an unpleasent loud noise too.
We have a similar issue with our C160 Transall which is very annoying, engines are not running on ready to fly screen and an autostart is automatically triggered by the sim after clicking on the button.
