Fenix pushback = snail?

Is your parking brake on?

Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.

Chocks remove? Toolbar Pushback uninstalled? (conflict with Fenix)....

Most of what is said on the Internet may be the same thing they shovel on the regular basis at the local barn.

All doors and hatches were closed, cones and chocks removed, gpu pca disconnected. I clicked the connect tug, waited for it to connect, released my parking breaks, and then clicked start. It said active, and the plane moved back. I have uninstalled my pushback addon. 

However, I tried just now at my arrival airport, and it worked just fine. So, I'll just write it off as probably a pilot error 🙂

The FBW pushback did the same for me too. I couldn't stop it either, it would always be pushing back even with the parking brake on just at a snails pace.

PMDG is, so far, the only ones who have decided to forgo the ASOBO pushback mechanic and I'm hoping FBW/FENIX/INIBUILDS/GSX all do the same. 

The default pushback is just... not any good.

I've found the pushback very temperamental, most of the time the time I click to connect the tug and it only connects for a few seconds before going again! Ended up using reverse thrust to get me off stands several times (yes I know this isn't permissible IRL)
