Not remembering control preset
This was a problem that cropped up before, was resolved, and is now back again with SU5.1: I have a control profile for my flight stick that I use only with the A300. Every time I exit the game and restart, it switches to another profile. This problem doesn't occur with my control panels (all from Virpil, including the flight stick).

Volume control knobs BATC
The issue seems to be that there is no noticeable change in volume between 0 and 50 percent, and then suddenly it starts working above that value. It's as if things are not being scaled properly - at 0% volume for example, you can still hear radio transmissions clearly.

Volume control knobs BATC
The volume control knobs seem to only work with the modern avionics cockpit panel and not the original when used in conjunction with BATC.

GSX implementation inconsistent
Actually, in this last case, the fuel truck never showed up, so I had to use the instant fuel load option.
-
GSX implementation inconsistent
Started a new flight just now and confirmed - after choosing "Import all from Simbrief" and then "Load with GSX", the GSX menu still wants me to manually request refueling, even though that option is set to Auto in the EFB. And even after that, it takes forever for the fuel truck to show up.

Non-functioning jetways at A1R
As the title says, when parking at A1R, the jetways are non-functional and cannot be operated with GSX.

Volume knob brightness
The brightness of the volume knobs on the radio management panels doesn't seem to be affected by any of the brightness adjustment knobs.

Printer paper is positioned poorly.
I have to twist my head to read any printed message, which makes this otherwise nice feature hard to use. Why not position it somewhere better, like the pedestal?

GSX implementation inconsistent
There is another severe issue with GSX: after pushback is complete and the brakes are set, the plane will gradually slide across the ground until it hits an obstacle. I've observed this twice now at MK Studios LSZH.

GSX implementation inconsistent
Once all passengers are on board, the payload level still shows 0. I have to manually choose "Instant Load Payload" to update the number from 0 to whatever it needs to be. For instance: 0 passengers in PLD field for the LIVE category, even though I was just told they were all on board.

GSX implementation inconsistent
Just tried another flight right now - after choosing "import all from Simbrief" and then "Load with GSX", the fuel truck never comes, so the plane just sits there at the default 8000 kg, doing nothing. Passengers can be heard boarding, but they are greeted with the default US English boarding calls from the flight attendant (I'm using one of the SWR liveries from the ini Manager app, so they should be using a German accent), and the payload value remains at 0 as well.

LVARS for wiper switches not working
Thanks! All good now with the LVARs.

Printouts and Noise Canceling
The paper printouts are nice, but they are placed at a horribly awkward angle below the EFB. Needs to be either rotated or relocated to a better spot, like next to the MCDUs. For the noise canceling option, instead of having to click through the EFB, a clickspot somewhere in the cockpit that toggles noise canceling on and off would be much more convenient.

How to use the printer
Thanks, yes, for instance, the autoprint of the flight plan: how is that supposed to work? Is it when generating a flight plan from the EFB? Same thing with auto-printing takeoff data: nothing happens.
-
GSX implementation inconsistent
Now that I've flown this plane a few times, I've noticed that GSX can be very unreliable - sometimes it will load fuel, sometimes not, and I'm not sure either if it's supposed to load passengers itself, but it sure doesn't seem like it right now - even though I have all GSX options set to Auto. I know a lot of things have changed with GSX lately, but I think it would be prudent to have a look and see if there are any issues that need to be resolved.

Flight level change request help
I also have problems requesting a direct to a particular waypoint - no way that I can see to send the message to the DCDU and then to ATC.

Flight level change request help
I'm trying to submit an altitude change request in Beyond ATC, but I cannot get the ATC REQ DISPL* text to change from gray to blue. Is there something I'm missing to send this sorta request properly?
