OliveBeast20441 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) Hello INIBuild Team, I have a question about thrust reverser logic on the A310. On very cold days, as expected, a lightly loaded aircraft will taxi quite fast at idle thrust. Instead of always riding the brakes to slow down the aircraft, I tried to deploy one reverser (at the idle setting) to effectively create an "air brake" and keep taxiing speeds down, but the reverser would not deploy. Both reversers do deploy when selected together, but individually they will not. My question is whether this is a logic employed by Airbus to avoid asymmetric reverse thrust when landing, or is just the way the aircraft is modeled? BTW, I am using the Thrustmaster TCA Captain Pack, with the throttles correctly calibrated. Sincerely, Mark Edited January 24 by OliveBeast20441 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumbyger Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Heya! It's possible for me to open the reversers asymmetrically, but I can definitely see that it is hard. I'll ask internally if there is a system like that in place and let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aburek Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 It is possible to deploy one at a time on the real aircraft. In the case of one reverser being deferred is an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
