Did you try the throttle calibration in the EFB?

Yes, that solved the issue. Thanks.

 

I was flying into EDDN on VATSIM and got a 360° turn to reduce some altitute. Then I got cleared direct to a waypoint and suddently after I entered the DCT waypoint the flightplan vanished. The only thing I could see was the departing runway from my origin. No data on the CDU, neither on the ND. However, it apparently kept the course of the deleted flightplan. That was weird, I just requested vectors, but that kind of stuff is challening, but sometimes a bit annoying. Especially because the work load is high enough on the approach flying online.

Amased at the job FBW have done with this, just tried out the autoland feature, and despite a strong cross wind and crabbing in on final it was spot on... this plane just gets better and better.( Experimental version)

Update:

 

Tried everything remove all addons from community folder bar the Flybywire updated to the latest version, Calibrated the throttle using the EFB, get to around FL320 climbing at 2-300 Fpm 

 

Sometimes it just levels off and wont climb any higher even at Mach 0.78, don't understand the issue I am far from novice been doing this since 1988 lol

 

I just want it to work 😰

So you're in open mode. For managed climb your FMA should read CLB ALT and your altitude selector on the MCP should say 36000 ⚫ but since it's just showing 36000 without the dot, I think you might just need to left click the top portion of the selector wheel to get it into automated climb and off of open mode. Being in OP CLB means the aircraft is trying to maintain speed with pitch. I'm not quite sure if it'll actually increase thrust to achieve an altitude or if it will just aim for a speed and that's it.

If that doesn't work, which I have a feeling it won't (since you're a veteran with decades of reaching ToC without issue), try the FBW livery and not the new ORBIT / MSFS liveries. I read some talk about how those were bugging the simulation somehow.

if neither of those solutions prevail, you'll have to go to their discord channel and post those images into the "help" chat. You'll get help from the devs in under 5 minutes.

I did another flight today and even reached FL420, GW was similar to yours and temperatures also not so much different. So I'm curious what is going on. I just updated the experimental version and added more parameters to the FDR (flight data recorder). If you try out the new version and it happens again, you can send me the FDR file if you want. Might help analyzing the issue. You can also press the DFDR button (right of the throttles on the pedastral) to mark a certain point in time. This get's fed into the FDR file as well...

Is it just me - the very latest update as of 29/3 - the ground role is much better!!! now the A320 doesn't surge ahead - but is much more realistic...

Yes, it's beautiful. They even fixed the issue with the increasing taxi speed even while on idle thrust. No it's deccelerating as it shoud be.

How it was before was more accurate. I'm sure this will be adjusted in the future.

It shouldn't be decelerating. That's an issue. It should very slowly accelerate on flat ground.

It's normal that I accelerate to 20knots and put the throttle back to idle and the airbus accelerates up to 30,40,50 knots?

Yes, that's the realistic behavior. You have to use the break to taxi within the speed limits.

Correct. There's currently an issue where it is decelerating on wet/snowy runways, but we cannot change that ourselves since the SDK doesn't currently allow us to modify any ground friction/handling constants.

It's decelerating on dry runways in the experimental version with the new engine model. Ground idle in the new engine model will need to be adjusted to account for the too high friction even on a dry runway just like the engine model in the current master was.

I can confirm that too. Definitely needs adjusting to a slow acceleration on idle.

Quick question: I tried an autoland for the first time into Liverpool, ILS Rwy 09. LOC and GS intercept all perfect. Final, flare and touchdown all perfect, as was initial centre line tracking. There was a small headwind component, 4kts I think. Then after the nosewheel touched down, with some reverser going in, the aircraft veered sharply off the runway to the left. As in 90 degrees to the runway. With full right rudder and differential braking, still could not prevent it and ended up ploughing off into the grass on the left side of the runway.

Perhaps the AP needs to be disarmed sooner? I am guessing that this should not happen though?

Hi Greg,

I'm sure your passengers will forgive you 😉

Yes, disarm the AP before inverting the throttles and you should be fine.

Well, the Autoland greased the landing so those passengers that were asleep on landing certainly weren't asleep a few moments later! 🙂

Thanks!
