Complete loss of power during flight (Read 1589 times)

	Using P3v4.4 and ORBX and FlyTampa for St. Maarten and your 757 i experience during flight a total loss of power for the 757, all elt out, engines out, RAM air turbine extended and immediate steep sink rate. Have retried many times with same setup, depart at TISX (St. Croix) and app. 40 miles to TNCM (St. Maarten) the "out" happens. Have deactivated FlyTampa, ORBX, even the default 303 scenery folder in all possible combinations. Nothing works. When flying around Jamaica no "out". Have even made clean reinstall of P3 and C757, no success. I have no clue how to resolve this, maybe somebody can try to "repeat" it? Thanks for any help, bz

	If you can recreate the situation, save the flight situation, and report it in the bug tracking forum.

	If recreating, I can save it with the "scenario" link, right? How to report/copy this then to the bug tracking forum? Sorry, I;m not an experienced forum participant, even understanding some of the sim processes. bz

	Just completed a flight, the very same route, TISX to TNCM, albeit in the default sceneries because I still do not have the FT's St Maarten. Not one single issue of engines cutting out. Used AS weather, CL at 21000. Landed with not a single issue as can be seen from attached.

	Hello Colvale, thank you for replicating the flight TISX-TNCM. I'm not sure either that this is a scenery issue - I'm even not sure what kind of issue that is. That's because I was reaching out to the community, because I felt helpless about it. From reading the forum I got some hints I want to follow up next: the joystick axis issue with mixture leaning which might be the cause and maybe the Carenado planes - but here I don't have the feature to use virtual flights with others. I will first look at my Saitek X52 settings and let you (all) know about the testing. Thanks for your participation and support, bz

	Good Luck sorting it out. There are simmers here who will try and help you as much as they can.

	Colvale and everybody, After testing Saitek X52 with changed mixture axis and using only default P3 key settings it showed that the X52 was not the culprit. I deleted the Carenado TC690, Lite and AC500 and had in the meantime 4 test flights without the "shut down", so it seems that the Carenado planes have an impact. I plan to test which of the Carenados have the impact. One thing I still don't understand is that this all happened only in an specific region (40 miles radius of TNCM) but I read somewhere else that some had a midflight shut-down approaching the east coast of Canada. Did you (if you read this) also had Carenado planes installed? I will report if I find out what Carenado is the "bad boy" Thanks, bz

	Late reply, since I have eliminated Carenado AC500 from my airplanes in P3D4.4 I have no problems with the CS757. The Carenado TC690 apparently has no bad impact. Bernd
