V5 - QW787 Full Power after engine start

Featured Replies

having an issue where, when after engine start up, it goes to 100% power regardless of input and cannot be reduced. Anyone else having this issue? FYI - if I do not start from cold and dark (engines already running at the start of the sim) I do not have this issue.

I've seen this in P3D v4 as well.  For me, panel states seem to default with full power; but if I simply move my throttle up then back down very quickly, it mitigates the issue.

I think it's an issue with auto throttles. The reason I think this is because I did a flight starting with engines running (not cold and dark) and when I turned on the auto throttles while take the runway power went to max. clicked off the AT and it fixed it. Turned on the AT once off the ground and everything continued per normal.

I actually have this issue after slewing(let's say because I'm too far forward on the ramp). It's no deal breaker, just a simple issue. You should always check thrust is idle before starting engines anyway.😉 I am in V4 but have no issues with A/t whatsoever.
