October 1, 200718 yr Hi,Firstly sorry if I'm asking something basic, only 1 week flying with this aircraft. This issue happenned with me 3 times today when landing, I consulted the documentation and readmes for the aircraft, read several topics of this forum but got no clue about my problem.I was starting landing procedure, gear down, flaps at 30, aligning to ILS localizer. Suddenly, just after intercepting the localizer the panel made some "mechanical sounds" like when you enable or disable the autopilot. After that sound, my throttle was locked and was not possible to move it, even using keyboard, mouse or throttle from my Saitek X45. Also, I was not able to disable this behavior.Initially I thought I touched something wrong and throttle lock was enabled, but I realized that actually the throttle was moving automatically to keep the plane at 180 knots. Pitch up, pitch down, gears up, gears down, flaps extended/retracted, and the throttle kept always moving to maintain 180 knots.I've heard that this aircraft doesn't have auto throttle, so I would like to know if someone could help me to find out what is happening.Rgds,Amauri.
October 2, 200718 yr Sounds like maybe you have the default A/T activated, maybe by inadvertently pressing the FS autothrottle hotkey.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
October 7, 200718 yr Hi Bob, It really behaves like an A/T, but it happened without touching anything and I even don't have keys mapped to A/T or TOGA arm on FS. Now you mentioned that, I've mapped keys to A/T and TOGA and when the issue happened I was able to switch it off using the mapped key.But I don't know why it is being enabled, I din't set it anytime and it is happening several times messing my landing :)Would you know whether there is any hidden setting to disable that ?Tks & Rgds,Amauri.
October 28, 200718 yr >Would you know whether there is any hidden setting to disable>that ?In the aircraft.cfg file autopilot section, change the line:autothrottle_available=1 to read:autothrottle_available=0That should put a stop to that.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
