Hope this thread isn't dead :s
Greetings to all.

My symptoms are exactly the same as jinros and I think I have found the source of the problem but unfortunately not how to completely resolve it.
If you open the aircraft.cfg file in notepad and scroll down you should see this:
[GeneralEngineData]
//0=Piston, 1=Jet, 2=None, 3=Helo-Turbine, 4=Rocket, 5=Turboprop
engine_type = 5
fuel_flow_scalar = 0.83
engine.0 = -4.86, 0, 4.5,
engine.1 = -9.32, -1.54, 4.5,
engine.2 = -9.32, 1.54, 4.5,
min_throttle_limit=0.000000
Needless to say, that is incorrect. I switched engine_type to 3.
After looking around some more I also found:
[fuel]
//Longitudinal (feet), Lateral (feet), Vertical (feet), Usable(gallons), Unusable (gallons)
fuel_type = 2
number_of_tank_selectors = 1
Center1 = -2.0, 0, -1.21, 100, 2.64
Center2 = 0, 0, -1.21, 52.8, 2.64
Center3 = 0, 0, -1.21, 52.8, 2.64
Center4 = 0, 0, -1.21, 100, 2.64
electric_pump=0
Going on a hunch I changed electric_pump to 1. This fixed the switches in the VC.
After having made these changes the Lynx now sounds quite different on loading in FSX and is able to take off.
The problem however is that powering down the engine will cause the original problem to return, and the engine actually has TOO MUCH power :s
I'm hoping that someone with a functional copy could post the contents of their aircraft.cfg file to see if that will fix the issue.
