Well I bought the Asobo ATR a couple of days ago

It loaded up rather nicely but when i spun up the

engines and released the barking brake nothing

happened...the plane failed to take-off...or move 

down the runway...confession: i have the freeware

ATR in my hanger, but that shouldn't matter, or should it?

Any help appreciated...

make sure the chalks are disabled in the EFB

Gust lock off?

Condition levers in the Auto position?

Chocks please.

I would seriously look into tutorials first.....

i have this problem sometimes also before takeoff when i turn of the parking brake before entering the runway after press  ctrl + p later some system of the aircraft freeze and don't react like the throttles  or parking brake the only way i found to reduce this is use only the mouse to turn on the parking break. 

Perhaps your in-game flight model is set to "Legacy"?
Note that after you have changed it to "Modern", a restart of MSFS is needed,
to implement the change.

Barking brake and chalks... we have come a long way in the avsim forums 🤣

Sounds definately like you have failed to release the chocks or the gust lock.

Are you sure, that accidently set it to "Active Pause" or something? I (was an word not allowed) did this once (in the Fenix), and was confused, as the sounds continue and you can move round the cockpit, but the systems freeze and won't react to input or changes.

I'm embarrased to say, that it took me awhile to figure this out... 🙂

lol you right that was the problem i couldnt notice was on pause because the parking break  and gust lock animation works  but the aircraft didn't move so i never could guess was pause  

thank you 

Thanks to everyone who responded...the correct answer 

is the prop conditioner was not set properly....needed to be

full ahead...it was not so set...now to figure out to set 

it for fully operational upon takeoff...

As mentioned, you probably want to seek out at least the Asobo tutorial videos. The airplane is pretty particular and they're quite quick but informative.
