[A2A-like plugin for Carenado's C210: v2.0]

That depends on the engine. What you said is true especially for Lycomings. No prime at all with a warm engine. Sometimes you can even not prime them if they are not too cold.

That's different with TCM continuous flow injection system. A little bit of priming is always needed, even with warm engines. The TSIO-520 is really indomitable sometimes.

 

There are many posts around the web that confirm this. Here's one on PPrune: http://www.pprune.org/archive/index.php/t-207519.html

Just a quote about the IO-520:

 

 

It's been a long time since I flew Bonanzas and Barons, but I remember their Continental IO-520s being much easier to start when hot than the comparable Lycomings on the Aztec. 
Open the throttle just a little, select the mixture to Rich, turn the boost pump on and leave it on until the fuel flow stabilises on the fuel flowmeter, turn the boost pump off, select the mixture to Idle-cutoff. Now you can start the engine, and when it fires, smoothly advance the mixture to Rich. Works every time, whether the engine is hot or cold.

Hi David,

 

Thank you for supporting us!

Actually, that's how the real Continental IO-520 works. The engine simulated by A2A is more forgiving.

The trick is to apply the fuel pump just until the fuel flow peaks (when engine is cold) or for a split of a second (when engine is warm).

 

Cheers

Hi there,
 

I'm Claudio from SimCoders.com.
We just released the new Reality Expansion Pack v2.0 for X-Plane.
It's an A2A-Like software for the C210 by Carenado.

The new version adds more complex engine dynamics, more damages (such as engine's oversquare operations and failures), the interactive walkaround, the towing and other stuff that you may like.
 
Here's a video of the walkaround and the towing:

We're going to release the same thing for the F33A Bonanza.

 

Hope you like it!
