Hi all,

Whenever I use the Airbus X, its load manager, GSX and VAFS5 after a few minutes the lights on the buttons on the overhead panel extinguish. Following that, it seems the vacuum system fails and the engines won't start. The artificial horizon on the PFD will slowly rotate and move into the blue positive section. Yes I do have the APU and ground power on and since I rebuilt my FSX partition on my PC it has not been the same. I had a few days where it was all working well, then it just stopped working. If I notice the overhead panel lights going off, I start an engine and it rectifies the problem. When I turn the engine off it's just a waiting game until it does it all again. I can't figure out what is causing it.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks in Advance.

You sure the battery isn't giving up? The battery life in MSFS has always been notoriously short. I use FSUIPC to get it to empty a lot slower. Another solution is to simply get that plane up and running quickly before the battery drains.

or plug in to ground power

@Thranli Could be possible but I never had this problem before - I did mention I was connected to ground power

 

@dickbilled

Yes I do have the APU and ground power on

 

Thanks.

I guess we are even since I didn't read you post thoroughly.

 

A duckbilled platypus is a strange animal. I imagine a dickbilled platypus would be even more bizarre. :P
