February 23, 20233 yr LShift-r disables auto-throttle. But that's only temporary. How do I disable auto-throttle for the entire flight from take-off to landing? Win 11 Pro, MSFS Deluxe, Quest 2.

The clickspot is on the forward side of the throttles.... basically really tough to get to without a quick view. On my CH throttle if I quickly drop the power it kills AT - and then I just bump it up again. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

Auto Throttle is off by default. As @btacon said, don't enable it with the button on the throttle or automatically with the FMS.

Is this a toggle for on/off, and is there a keyboard shortcut? Win 11 Pro, MSFS Deluxe, Quest 2.

I literally just look down and click it - been doing that since day 1......... Spoiler https://imgur.com/a/UegvZQ4 Never once used the one on the front, far too awkward !!

February 24, 20233 yr No I didn't. Originally that one never worked for me. Did they change something after AAU1? | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

I've always used that spot, not sure if AAU made it easier... literally never used the one at the front. Not in any version and believe me, if I've got auto throttles I am using them....

February 24, 20233 yr I don't get this. I have a button on my Alpha yoke assigned to toggle AT on and off and works with no problem.
February 24, 20233 yr Perhaps the OP is experiencing issues caused by the FMS. The FMS will take over thrust control if the Longitude is about to stall. Changing the autopilot from FMS to Manual thrust control should solve the problem under these circumstances.

February 24, 20233 yr Author I saw this YouTube video but it doesn't seem to be working for me. It disables auto-throttle temporarily but as soon as the plane is about to stall, the auto throttle comes back automatically. I want to completely disable auto throttle during the *entire* flight. From Take-off to Landing. And why are there two buttons for auto throttle? It doesn't make sense to have one engine on auto throttle and the other one is not on auto throttle. Also, is there an indication in the instrument panel indicating the status of the auto-throttle ie. has it been de-activated? I know about the 'AT' and the flashing 'AT' sign when the auto throttle is active and when it is about to go inactive. The problem is the latter disappears eventually. ==================================== Edited February 24, 20233 yr by spinoza Win 11 Pro, MSFS Deluxe, Quest 2.

Envelope protection cannot be disabled, nor can it in the real aircraft. If you cancel AT while MIN SPD is active, you can cancel that one instance, but once you're out of the MIN SPD range and go back into it, you will need to cancel AT again.
