  1. I use the same TQ and have never seen it and cannot replicate.
  2. Cannot replicate without weird control inputs. I have a dozen or so takeoffs and landings post update. No problem on any of them. I do not have the rudder and nosewheel combined. I use a separate axis controller for nosewheel and rudder. I am going to guess that the problem resides in the joystick rudder/tiller axis. Check curves and sensitivities in the twist axis. You may be sending signals you don't want to be.
  3. It appears that Airbus learned a lesson in subsequent generations of aircraft. The A320 series has a knob for both the integral and window lights. I asked this same question early on and @ual763 actually turned me on to this page of the FCOM.
  4. Nope, that appears to be the way it works.

    Stairs

    I have done a fairly detailed search. It does not look like the PAX version came with airstairs (those the aircraft carried). It would break my immersion if inibuilds added stairs to a plane that did not have them in real life.
  6. What settings do you have in the EFB for the rudder?
  7. Ahh, you shouldn't need it. The screen names on that are all messed up, so I was told. It has the same description of the ECAM SYSTEM that I gave, so I don't want to confuse you. It must be wrong.
  8. Well darn. I would have expected you to know the difference between the warning panel and the ECAM or sometimes called the ECAM status panel or at the very least how to read the entire FCOM. Saw your pic. Yea, I would only be in that situation if I was in an uncontrolled dive and trying it as a last resort. No wonder I don't see those things. Also unsure why such an accomplished pilot would need to reference an A310 FCOM. Granted the systems are very much alike, but I would have searched for the A300 FCOM.
  9. BTW, on my last flight, I could not replicate. I very rarely have problems with Vle and I had to force it. I may not have done it right. However, I am ok waiting for ini to "fix" it if determined broken. It won't matter to me either way because I can fly it without hitting Vle. I put the gear up on positive rate and down about 3-5 nm from landing when I go flaps full.
  10. I have one of those two, but I read the whole thing. Any more questions?
  11. No kidding? Really? Wow. Ok let me re-state what I said. YES it is part of the ECAM. YES there are two displays. The right one is referred to as the ECAM display. It is ECAM only. Press a button and see the doors. See the APU, check the electrical bus. The LEFT display is referred to as the WARNING display. It gives you some setting information, like anti-ice is on, take off settings are normal or not AND WARNING message like, oh crap captain the cabin pressure is fubar, hey captain, don't look now but there is an electrical issue. YES they are both part of the ECAM SYSTEM, however the two displays, pardon the redundance, display two different types of information from the ECAM system. On my post, I did get my left and right mixed up. Left is WARNING display, right is ECAM display.
  12. Yes, I get that. However the FCOM makes reference to the left display being the "ECAM" display and the right display the "Warning display". They have a separate section of the FCOM.
  13. That would be on the warning panel at the knee of the captain. I will check this next flight.
  14. ECAM? What page on the ECAM should Vle be on? Are you sure you mean ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring System)? That is where the door, electrical, system, flight controls etc show up on the screen to the bottom right of the engine cluster. I can't find any FCOM mention of Vle being shown there. Screen shot would be good.
  15. Well crap, I just finished a screenshot/crop/reduce size work to post the ECAM page description. LOL
  16. I have to ask, because I can't determine from the post. Did you set the flight directors to ILS mode on the glareshield?
  17. I will test this out during my flight in a bit. I only tested the inability to set V2 as stated by the OP.
  18. Well, I did that test right after I upgraded to 1.03 using an inibuilds livery. I guess I got nothing for this, other than to say it is working fine on my end.
  19. I just tested. Works fine. Did you guys align the IRS and turn on Pitch Trim, Yaw Damper, and the two ATS switches on the overhead panel?
  20. I have over 20 hours on VATSIM with 1.02. Just finished a flight to TJSJ. Not a problem for me.
  21. Nope, it probably means you forgot to put the engine start switch back to off or continuous relight. The packs do not operate with it is Start A or B. Flows and checklists.
  22. No, it will be out when it's done and ini is happy with it.
  23. One other thing pushing this knob will change from IAS speed to Mach speed.
  24. 1. This should be set to V2 for take off, always 2. You would use it while flying in level change (LVL CHG button) mode. Level change maintains a constant speed during either a clime or descent. For example, during a descent it will pitch the plane down to maintain whatever vertical speed needed to match the selected speed in the MCU. Now you can do one of two things. If you make the selected speed higher, your plane will descend faster and if you make the selected speed lower it will descend slower. You can also use the throttles to make changes to vertical speed in this mode, without changing the IAS/Mach. For example, let's say you set LVL CHG to move from FL360 to 10,000 feet and your speed is set to 300 kts. During the descent if you add thrust, the vertical speed will adjust to maintain 300 kts descending, so the vertical speed will become lower. If you reduce thrust, the opposit happens. 3. You can also use the speed setting to control auto thrust commanded speed on final approach. Think of it as automation that you directly control.
  25. I don't think it is anything to do with the HC Bravo. It is simply sending an electrical impulse into the sim. The sim "set autopilot airspeed hold" is the issue as it then talks directly to the plane. Again, as planes get more complex and the developers need to use more complex and custom sim events, Lvars, Hvars, Bvars etc, the in sim assignment functionality can be a. Not functional enough b. Have "default" assignments that cause issues like is being seen I cannot stress enough that, in my opinion based on way too many years of doing this, a happy sim is a controlled sim. For around 20 dollars (two Starbucks coffees) one can take control of the controls. I recommend Axis and Ohs because I use that. SpadNext is just as good, though I don't know how much it is. I fire my sim up with a new plane knowing that I will not have any control conflicts because my in sim profiles are blank. My first step with a new plane is assign the camera views I want (I don't even look at any provided views, don't care). Next I use Axis and Ohs to create an out of the sim profile the way I want it to be. I have heard folks say they don't think they should have to spend the money or that they should have to spend the time. Well, you will at least spend the time fixing things and time really is money. AAO, or if I used it SpadNext, is a must have/must use add on for me.
