Good day,

I have purchased the mentioned aircraft and think it is absolutely awesome but am experiencing a problem whereby the engines cut mid flight.
Is there anyone else that has this aircraft that may be able to assist with this issue.

Thank you

Are you sure you started the flight FULL FUEL, and did you have enough for the trip?

And did you cut the engine power down from 1005 after take off? These planes do not need 100% power to remain at cruise speed, which could've sucked a lot of juice, causing engine shut down.

I had basically just taken off from FAPE heading towards FACT and everything was working well.
There was more than enough fuel in it and when you activate the vnav you change your throttle setting to CLB otherwise there will be moeilikheid.
I have sent an email to Eaglesoft but have not heard anything back from them yet.
