Fuel in CTR tank not being consumed

[mizra108]

Im running XP 11.50rc1 and i loaded the airplene with fuel in all 3 tanks (9800lb L/R and 2710 in CTR). All 6 fuel pumps turned on before takeoff and noticed during climbout that all 3 fuel gauges are not moving (fueL not being consumed). I then turned off the CtR tank fuel pumps and then fuel started to be consumed from the wings. Its as if its not letting fuel flow out of the CTR tank.

Forgot to add, the airplane version im using is 1.32

Can you make sure you try this in 1.33 and confirm?

Woops, was not aware 1.33 was out. Will download and report back. Do I need to select experimental flight model?

No, that should not have anything to do with it. Please doublecheck the position of the switches - the center fuel pumps will not show "low pressure" lights if they are off - so it is a bit easier to have them "off" but to think they are on.

I have just checked and it works correctly on my end.

Yep, i just downloded 1.33 and it works fine now. I was having the issue in 1.32. In terms of the aerodynamics, should I leave experimental flight model On?

Yes, our plane should be flown with experimental flight model ON. It will fly with it OFF as well, but the performance will not be correct.

Happy you got the fuel flowing again! ;-)
