Flaps malfunction after retraction during the climb

Featured Replies

Have flown the A220 on four flights now, and on three of them, long after takeoff and cleanup, I get the MSFS system malfunction pops up on the screen. On this last flight it happened later in the cruise portion, and my ACARS system for my airline doesn't pick up on the flaps being used at all. On Descent, the slats will deploy but the flaps will not. After landing, the visual of the aircraft shows the flaps fully deployed on the exterior model, but inside the flight deck, it shows fully retracted. Hardware is all Virpil and no issues show up in the synoptic pages. Any help would be appreciated as it's causing me some issues on landing.

I completed my first flight today and had the same issue. The warning message in the OP's screenshot was shown, then on landing the slats deployed but not the flaps. At some point during the landing rollout the flaps then deployed, but stayed at flaps 4 regardless of what position was selected.
