Trying to start a plane this complex on the runway is NEVER going to work 🙂 Start at a gate and follow a full cold and dark startup, then see how things go. Good luck, Jack

OH, and I almost forgot, I installed the reduced cockpit textures, have you tried that? Even that did not solve the syrup effect at the gate really. My new memory is also faster DDR5 dimms so I hope to go back to the normal textures, but that is worth a try.

It's funny, with the 2024 version, it was really mushy in the cockpit at the start of a flight, making it a bit tricky moving the camera around, this was at KLAX, default scenery. But once in the air I don't have that problem, I did a flight to KATL and the whole way there was ok. I was really worried it might be laggy on the final also, but surprisingly it was not, the landing went very well. I have 64G memory upgrade arriving tomorrow, who knows with that maybe I will finally make 2024 my default 🙂

How do you do an approach? Are you flying a STAR, normally that would dump you into an IAF for an ILS approach right? That entry fix will have an altitude as well, and you should have your descent set up so you arrive at that fix with everything you need set, the only thing one needs to do is press the APR button, and activate the other FMS (at least I always do, I've seen some say that isn't necessary). Do you see the localizer activate? BTW, I've now done KLAX-KATL, a Delta flight, landing 27L, and this time on 2024. Still have some performance issues, but everything worked. Looks to me that your problem isn't the plane, its procedural or data. I have always had a Navigraph subscription, I recommend it. Cheers, Jack

How much memory do you have? My system has 32G and this has me seriously considering upping it to 64, its not that expensive really.

My first "kick the tires" flight, KLAS-KLAX, is complete! Been a couple days trying to figure things out, but finally got into the air, and I gotta say, I LOVE this plane. Used to fly the FF in Xplane, that was always an exercise in frustration. I like this flight because it's quick, but it lets you test all the essentials. From start to finish everything worked, landed ILS25L, used Autoland. So, sure this doesn't mean there aren't problems, of course there are, but someone claimed this was a "catastrophy", and thats ridiculous, for a release this plane is glorious, and it will only get better. Thanks for this Inibuilds! Jack

I just completed a flight KLAS-KLAX, landed ILS25L, and it captured flawlessly, so you need to provide more data, this is not enough to help anyone debug your problem. What airport, what runway, any other pertinent detail. Inibuilds is inundated with stuff right now, just saying things like "no workie here" doesn't help. Yes, there are issues, we need to be a supportive community, and actually help them in order to help us 🙂 Jack

FYI, this weird behavior seems intentional, it happens in the 2020 version, and when I found that, I checked the A320 and it does the same thing! For now, just remember to not turn the beacon on til you have the APU online 🙂

The Inibuilds A320 does this same thing 🤨 althouth I had not noticed that before. I'd rather it not have this hidden connection however!

I ran into this as well, thought it was bizarre, but then I tried loading the A320 Neo, and imagine my shock when it did the same thing, LOL. I suppose their thinking was turning on the beacon is IRL a sign tht the engines are starting, so they thought it should automatically remove power. I still would rather not having it do so. But at this point it's easy enough to work around once you realize it, dont turn on the beacon til you have the APU running.

An update, I found the install had gone into the location C:\XboxGames\... Given MS obfuscating ways I have no idea the relationship between what's there and what ends up in our Appdata tree, but the sim did not find it there. I moved the content into the Community folder for 2020 and low-and-behold it worked. With both sims on my system, and also a recent SSD failure that I am still recovering from I have no idea whether some of this is my fault or what. I only decided to do the 2020 install to compare issues there with 2024.... Sigh. At least I am now up and running... well, sorta, more on that in a different post.

This did not work, I uninstalled both, then installed 2020 first, or alledgedly it did, but it still isn't there running the sim 😞 So, bottom line, the 2020 install isn't working period 😞 😞

Wow, you saved me some time and aggrevation, I had this same problem, now at least I know what to do.... not that I'm happy about it 🥲 Thanks for figuring it out! This should be fixed, whatever the heck is the issue.

Hmm, well i started a transfer request, but when I looked back thru my email it looks like I actually purchased from you guys. Anyway, I filled out the form, please help me straight this out! Jack

I was going to buy the upgrade, but the store says its not available to me when I try to use the code, why would this be, I have the plane in 2020?? Am I missing something? Thanks for any help, Jack

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar 😊 It indeed was the FD, I had to calibrate the throttle again, that was odd, I had done it, but this time it actually latched onto climb thrust when it should have. Such a silly little thing, but one I've never worried about with Airbus and so just overlooked. Thanks again!! Jack

Thanks, appreciate the response, I will try that asap!

I tried the 320 Neo, it failed in the same way. Next I tried the Neo in 2020 and it works as it should. So this is broken in 2024.... what else is new 🤕

I hate it when people do this, if you solved it please share with others. I have this problem, and I have recalibrated my logitech joystick a couple times. I have tried two different departures, and it's always the same thing, when prompted for climb thrust, i move the throttle to where its been calibrated and .... nothing. Clearly its not the hardware, as we are different. I have not compared the 320 yet to see if the issue occurs there as well. HELP!

I second this, I would really love to have the P2F variant for the 200 also... Pretty please 😉

As for it's existence: https://aircraft.airbus.com/en/aircraft/freighters/A350F 😁 And count me in as interested as well. Thanks!

Its FREE, and "rushed"?? I'm in awe of how good this thing is for a default/builtin plane, it puts anything offered free in XPlane to shame 🙂 I have been flying APLv2 flights in it since Beta, and I have no complaints. Maybe Fenix is better (I have it as well), as is Toliss, but they are payware. Now back to enjoying flying it.

I assure you it works, did you enter your NUMERICAL id and not the alphabetical one??

I fly both the Fenix and the new Inibuilds, don't know what your problem is, sure procedures are a little different but not much, the one is CEO the other NEO of course, and of course the Simbrief interface is just a little different... Even so, the Inibuilds is brilliant, I've flown many flights in it. It's a no brainer to follow LNAV, you push a button 🙂

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
