Go-around issues

[LukeFF]

When performing a go-around after a missed approach, I cannot seem to get the plane to hold a steady altitude, even though I've dialed in a low altitude per the missed approach instructions on the approach plate and engaged altitude hold. Is there a certain procedure I should follow in times like this?

I don't seem to have any issues during the go around. Make sure to hit the TOGA button again when commencing the go around.

Thanks, it just seems really strange - I've been engaging TOGA but even still, the plane just wants to climb and climb, and no altitude setting will seemingly change this. Will keep trying to see if it is something I am doing wrong

If you want to, you can record a go around and I'll see if I can spot a mistake 🙂

Thanks - might take me a while to get back around to this, since I typically only fly the A300 on weekends

Take a look if maybe this is what's going on.  Thrust is latching because you activated A floor?

@LukeFF Do you still have this issue?

[LukeFF]

I'm good for the moment, now, thanks. 🙂

@Nico - Gumby, I take that back - I am trying an approach into KMEM right now, and the damn plane won't descend properly to the approach and is now climbing instead of descending. Something is seriously screwed up - no matter if try level change, vertical speed, etc, it's stuck in a climb.

Also, to add: what finally worked to get the thing out of the climb was to disengage auto-throttle. Only then did the plane start descending like I wanted it to.

Sounds like you nearly stalled and THR L activated. But without a video / screenshots it's difficult to say.

Maybe, but it's been so long now I don't remember. 😄 But I've made a mental note to keep an eye out for problems with this in the future.
