Systems

Just departed EGGW to EGNX. Was climbing through FL100 to FL120 and just done a direct too UPDUK. I was clearing out the way points when all the systems just froze. Screenshot attached. Aircraft flew normally with manual thrust and control however nothing else would work but the altimeter. Photo attached.

The pilots avatar are missing in the outside view with the Freighter PW version. With the Freighter GE version they are "on board". Even after I reinstalled the aircraft. Did I miss something? Can anyone confirm this? Cheers, Chris

Hello, planned on doing the SCOLA1 STAR into KRNO. MVA transition. And the RNP Y 17L. - 1st step I did was to edit the 250-knot restriction from 250/FL100 to 250/FL150 as per my preference. No problem. - 2nd step was to connect the STAR to the APPR as it finishes on a heading of 333 after KLOCK. - I deleted KLOCK from the STAR end, and poof. Both FMCs stuck. Airplane flies. Just that I have no FMC's anymore. FMC 1 went blank together with a DSPLY legend light. FMC 2 froze where it was last at F-PLN. - Also, the route is completely gone from the ND and certain instruments are behaving strangely. Xander

Hello, In the PW Version, after landing if you engage the reverses thrust without full nose down on the throttle, the aircraft tends to jump back up in the air. Tried out the same in the non-PW version, and didn't come across the same behavior. Thanks

Where can we set the TCAS distance now with this Version ? ( 6nm to 12nm for example ) cheers 😉

Greetings, I've been asked on one of my flights to hold over an enroute fix, when I did so the throttle started to hesitate between setting the cruising speed and the holding speed. Also, the plane seems to not being able to hold the race track precisely, but when I switched to manual speed it fixed the throttle hesitation. Regards

Hi there I’ve noticed this issue when using the rudder as a fine nose wheel steering control to keep the aircraft centred on the taxiway centreline. After moving the rudder pedals to full deflection then releasing the controls, the aircraft seems to have a reverse yaw moment as if it is orientating itself back towards the frontal airflow. Given there is insufficient airflow across the vertical stabiliser (or the rudder) when taxying, there should be no yaw effect induced by the rudder, nor should there be a ‘return to centre’ moment induced by the vertical stabiliser. This seems to occur with the setting “Auto Tiller Disconnect” in both the YES or NO posit…

I always used the clickspot / button on the left to set thrust / arm autothrust for takeoff. this works great on thze A310 and also here on the A300. Since the latest update, it seems that hasn't any effect anymore.... Do we soemthing wrong or is the flow changed to set takeoff thrust an autothrust? Or is this different onm PW engines? .... *confused*

Hey guys, i cant find the tcas panel on the a300 pw... can someone help ?

Greetings, Just curious if the A300-600/A310 have the ability to fly an LPV RNAV approach, or are they limited to LNAV/VNAV only guidance on final? It's an early generation of aircraft and I think the LPV standard came relatively recently. Did a quick search of the forums and found nothing.

Hi! Twice I've attempted to use Autoland using the A300-600R at ILS 22R @ iniBuilds KDTW. Both times when about 100 AGL, plane veers off sharply to the right. Had to disconnect autopilot and manually correct back onto the runway. I've had this issue with the A310 and a few ILS @ iniBuilds KJFK in the past. Any similar reports? Thanks!

Hi,im flying from KBOS to EHAM and inflight my attitude indicator goes off? When i pull the knob it comes not up again.But on ground it was ok

In the screenshot below, the Agent 1 and Agent 2 switches can be moved up and down without moving the red guards out of the way first.

Hello, I am having a issue with my throttles in the A300 where The throttle can either be at Idle, or at Full power, its like a toggle switch. In the EFB Throttle configuration, they behave as expected. Here is a link to a video of the issue.

I'm still trying to make sense of the takeoff performance figures. Let's take it step by step and only look at the effect of wind for now. This image assumes a tailwind of 5 knots: And this image is under the same conditions, but with a headwind of 5 knots: I would expect engine thrust to have an effect on V2, but not the wind? Why does the wind have such an effect on V2 while the thrust and flaps stay the same? Since the flaps, the weight and the thrust settings are the same, I'm curious why the wind affects VR? I would have expected VR to stay the same in these conditions. It does make absolute sense, the V1 is very much influenced b…

Greetings, I wanted to draw your attention to this subject. When I disengage the A/P and the A/T using the shortcut keys in MSFS, the red button in the control column and the throttle don't move or animate. Regards

Soo I love the a300 cargo been flying it a lot and have it in realistic setting but what I’m not sure is do I constantly have to fly it without turning the sim off or dose it remember where I am and what condition everything is for tyres brakes etc

Hey guys, I can't get running the A300's gear with the TCA quadrant. Nothing happens when setting the "Button 21" to gear up / gear down... is there a solution ? Thx for answers... greetings from berlin

I have maintenance mode disabled according to the setting, yet after EVERY flight I keep having to go into the maintenance panel and "fix" my APU and other random things 😞 BTW, I'm really enjoying this plane, it's my favorite right now!! Thank you. Jack

Hello, today I tried a flight with the A300 airliner and experienced, that after switching the 3 battery switches on all cockpit knobs where no more responding to mouseclicks nor any mouse action at all (I hear the sound as if the knobs where switched but that's all and nothing happens with the knobs nor with the systems). What can I do?

Out of the blue when importing the Simbrief flight plan , it works on the EFB but when importing on the ACARS page of the FMS it brings up an old flight . I un-installed and re-installed via the Ini-manager without success . Any help on where to look for this problem would be appreciated . It is also occurring on one other add-on ( MSFS ATR42/72 ) in the exact same way which makes me think it's not a Windows/MSFS 2020 issue . Correct file ??

Hello, in the latest versions of the A300, it looks like the elevator pitch trim became too sensible, trimming too fast. this makes precise trimming very difficult... is there an option to go back to the older pitch trim of previous versions, which was slower and more precise? thanks

I recently flew to GOBD via SAKL3D ILS Z 01. I noticed, that the outgoing radial was off. I tried the approach again today with raw data: It still shows the VOR capturing mode, but that is another bug that is already reported and logged. The VOR was tracked well and I confirmed this with third party mapping tools. As you can see, the outgoing leg was drawn to the left of the actual VOR radial. The navdata was from Navigraph, AIRAC 2402. The airport scenery is from FSDG. The A310 already had issues at airports with large magnetic variation: I suspect, that this issue is still not fixed in the A300 either.

Load the aircraft empty: Next, enter an incorrect ZFW of 130 tons on the INIT B page. The aircraft calculates a GW of 184 tons as expected: Start an engine and go to the fuel prediction page. It will now show the actual GW of 143.5 tons: Since the aircraft cannot know the actual ZFW, I would expect it to display 184 tons.

Since that latest update, when I try and load a SID or STAR they disappear and don't load. Never had a problem before this update. I removed the plane and will reinstall. I hope that fixes things. Anyone else experienced this? Thanks
