I want to auto-start my push-propeller engine (on an X5 airframe) upon catapult launch, hence I'm using
- TKOFF_THR_MINACC and
- TKOFF_THR_DELAY but not TKOFF_THR_MINSPD (Takeoff throttle min speed, as advised).
Although I lowered TKOFF_THR_DELAY (Takeoff throttle delay) from initially 0.2s to 0.1s and then to 0, the engine won't start until after a significant delay of about 0.5 - 1 second after catapult launch.
For TKOFF_THR_MINACC (Takeoff throttle min acceleration) I started with 5 going down to 1 (m/s/s) but I can't see any difference.
What I'm doing wrong?

Maybe you should try to increase TKOFF_THR_MINACC from 5 to 10 instead...?
