After looking at a number of videos regarding the A300, I am unable to engage TOGA mode and A/T. The procedure I have used is
1) T/O Calculator--enter V1, and V2 in the "FMS."
2) Set V2 in the "MCP"
3) Check the T/O Computer that TOGA is illuminated
4) Advance the Throttles ~ 40%
5) Press the TOGA Button on the Airbus TQ
The A/T never engages and I have to use the LVLCHG Mode, and then transition to PROFILE MODE (PROFILE and NAV are selected prior to T/O).
I'd appreciate any suggestions--Thanks
P.S. I didn't have this problem in the MSFS2000 version. Also, is the ZFW data entered in the "FMS" or was that a previous iteration of the sofware?
