Vernibob Posted January 1 Posted January 1 Hi All As the title suggests - Normally, when I start a first flight i just start with the aircraft on the runway and do a few touch and go(s). However, when the aircraft is on the runway the engines are either at 100% and then when it hits around IAS 120-140 kts it will throttle back. So, i thought it was a config issue. So i started from Cold and dark and when i get to the engine start buttons, it just says arm and nothing happens. I did this again following the checklist, same thing. The engines use wont start the initial spool. Things I have tried/checked: - Throttles are calibrated - I have checked the Autopilot is off numerous times and played with the auto throttle panel checking TOGA, CLB etc. - I have checked that all my controls are not pushing TOGA of Full Throttle anywhere unexpected. - I have many hours in the inibuildsA310 too, no problems with that aircraft and flys as expected (Its also why im semi sure its not a me problem). - I have also reinstalled the aircraft twice. The issues remind me of DNS or pirate protection where it wouldn’t let you move the controls until you registered it (if that makes sense) but i have paid for the aircraft and installed it through the manager 😞. I have been trying to sort it for a few days and I have missed the boat on the Holiday season to fly it now! But if anyone can share any guidance of what i may have dont wrong or what may have gone wrong please do let me know.
FireFoxBravo Posted January 1 Posted January 1 (edited) If you are using honeycomb controls, specifically the bravo, apparently you can't place the left mode selector into IAS (at least with the way its binds it by default). I assume it to be something with the bindings (wich are a bit weird anyway)? Its an interesitng issue to be sure, but its fixed it for me. If your not using the bravo i can only assumes it must be something similar... 5 hours ago, Vernibob said: Hi All As the title suggests - Normally, when I start a first flight i just start with the aircraft on the runway and do a few touch and go(s).
