Hello everyone, forgive me if these have been asked. I did a search of the kb and even filled out two customer support requests which were rejected. I hope someone here can help.

First problem is in regards to the engines. If I start some engines on the C-130 then quite FSX and then return to FSX the same engines will still be running. The only way for me to stop the engines is if I shut down FSX and restart it. Does anyone know why this is happening?

My next questions is in regards to the EICAS displays. In the 3D view they give me a readout of the engines. In the 2D view they display all zeros as if the engines were turned off. Does the 2D panel EICAS work?

Third problem/question is in regards to the autopilot. If I turn the autopilot on from the 2D panel then pull up the autopilot popup it will show that the autopilot is turned off. Or as an alternative if I turn the autopilot on from the autopilot popup the 2D panel will show it as being off. I can try this in any combination of on and off and the 2D panel and the autopilot popup will never reflect the same state. Does anyone know what is happening with the autopilot?

There are a few more issues but the last one I would like to bring up at this time is in regards to the yoke. If I turn the yoke off while in the 2D panel then open any other panel, such as the upper overhead for example, the yoke reappears and I must turn it off again. When I close the panel I've just opened the yoke appears again. This is a continuing battle to turn the yoke off. Is there a way to turn the yoke off and keep it off?

Thank you for any assistance,
Ed

I created a new "default" flight using the FS Cessna C172 with no fuel in the fuel tanks (0%). When I loaded the CS C-130 and checked the fuel, ALL the fuel tanks on the C-130 are at 100% too. When I reload the C172 that I started the flight from, it now has 100% fuel. This happened every time I tried to start my C-130 without fuel. I think it is just a case of when you load the C-130 you will get it with 100% fuel. HOWEVER. When I created a flight with the C-130 (0% fuel) and set it as the default flight. When I load this flight, it IS empty, NO fuel. When I switched to a different C-130, it also had empty tanks. Weird! Try starting with the C-130 as the default flight with empty tanks seeing as it seems to work that way.

In mine, the 2D Panels (Main, EICAS and FO) and 3D VC gauges are all displaying the same engine readings.

My VC autopilot and my 2D Autopilot Panel always match each other. Sometimes I use the 2D A/P Panel, other times I use the 3D A/P. If I change it using the 2D, I can see it change on the 3D VC panel and vice-versa. For me it makes no difference.

Have you tried reinstalling the CS C-130 to see if it fixes the last two problems?

Hope this helps.
