nose diving with airbus pro on 2004

[Guest paulthomas14]

When i take off using airbus pro without using autopilot it suddenly goes into a nose dive and crashes,i have a registered version of fsuipc and unclicked the "Discon Elev trim Axis for Ap" on the techinical page is there any thing i could do?

If it's happening after takeoff when the autopilot is not engaged are you entering the correct alt and speed into the FCU and pulling the knobs for selected mode? One thing that often helps is to set the trim to -1.8UP by using the Home/End keys and watching the Pitch Trim on the lower ECAM (F/CTRL page)Edit: and are you using weather such as ASV6? If so a sharp tailwind or a crosswind with a strong tailwind component can also cause this if you are not careful.Rob Elliott, EGPE InvernessPSS Airbus Support andAirbus Fleet Training Captain, British Airways Virtual airbus@speedbirdonline.co.ukhttp://www.speedbirdonline.co.uk/airbus.htmlhttp://www.bavirtual.co.uk
