Is there a good explanation as to why A&O fails to connect with MSFS at start up. The only way to force it to connect is to first turn off the simconnect button and they turn it on again. It's happening with more than one aircraft, so I am not sure if it's aircraft specific or sim related. I am not running any beta programs, and have the latest A&O. thanks. tc

What do you mean by "start up"? When exactly do you expect it to "connect" and how do you know that it didn't?

This was happening to one of the testers too, but that was in the MSFS Beta. His problem has been fixed, so there is a chance that your problem will go away with version 3.60 (which will be released after SU13)

I first open A&O. I then start MSFS. When the sim is fully open with the aircraft on the runway and A&O window shows all the buttons and axis assigned for that particular aircraft as well as responding to the axis moves, the aircraft's axis fail to move. The sim connect button is on. At this point, only if I turn off the simconnect button in A&O and turn it back on, will things work normally. We'll see how SU13 changes things.... thank you.

Sounds weird. What if you connect AAO (using the green LED) when you are already sitting in the cockpit instead of using the auto-connect option?

I'll try it and report. thanks again. tc
