Aerosoft A320 in Wrong Performance Mode

[roadrabbit149 10]

Occasionally when in cruise the Performance is still in Climb Mode. I have tried several ways to get the mode to transition to Cruise, but without success.

I am sure there must be a simple fix? Any help much appreciated.

With their 319 I edited the aircraft.cfg file 

This line

autothrottle_max_rpm             = 105.00

edit to

autothrottle_max_rpm             = 98.00

 

There's an autobraking line you can also edit to 1 to give autobraking but that's not this topic.

 

Edit with Notepad++ to avoid fiddling with save permissions. 

 

Speed in TOGA to 200 kias then you set the throttle quadrant to cl position first (2 clicks back from TOGA)  Then click  AP1  A/thr  and  exped  so you see Thr clb top left of screen this keeps the speed till altitude dialed (Altitude set and right click to enter) is reached then speed or Mach is activated.

That's what I am assuming you mean?

Is the cruise altitude in the MCDU set in the MCP too? And did you engage Managed Mode (i.e., altitude knob pressed)?

Added info so as not to confuse.

Once 200 kias is reached after rotation  throttle back to cl  then click      AP1    A/thr      exped     then dial in spd to 250 and right click so dot is no longer showing and then do the heading the same way and Airbus should follow spd hdg and alt settings.
