So, after a hiatus from 2024, I have returned to it a couple of days ago to see if/how things got better. The ATC is still a circus - assigning me initial altitude of 1200 feet when my cruise is FL240 etc... But mainly I wanted to test the new iniBuilds A300 version that came out today before I splurged on their A350. Did a short flight from FAPE to FACT and on approach everything on the flight deck froze - all instruments were stuck in their positions, nothing in the cockpit would click. AC was still responding to manual control input but barely and ended up being uncontrollable. Is this a thing that happens to any of you? Or maybe just with that aircraft? It was a deeply frustrating experience and needless to say, I will be holding off purchasing that A350. I am gonna try again tomorrow and see if I fare any better, but yeah... this was a thing that happened today. Forgot to mention - I am on the SU2 Beta, latest one - 13.

I can’t say I’ve had that issue on the A300 but I also haven’t flown with the latest patch yet.  Hopefully they didn’t introduce a new issue, sounds like maybe a WASM issue.  I also haven’t flown it in the SU2 beta.  

The only thing I had happen was a few patches ago when both engines stopped on short final into EBBR…only happened once though.  Rumour has it that wreckage is still sitting in the farmers field I came down in.

It did sound like a WASM crash to me... cause everything basically stopped including the backup instruments. I believe that has happened before on 2020 a couple of times, notably with PMDG 737s, but I haven't seen this in 2024 yet. I am gonna try again tomorrow. Hoping for a better flight. The last 10-15 I have done were OK, though none were with ini buses. 

It happened to me often. Is a WASM crash indeed. A workaround for me is at the first flight when everything is loaded, give a restart of flight and then I hadn’t any crash or freeze. You can try that. This is an issue with inibuilds aircraft, had same freezes with A321 default, so a restart after initial start is working for me.

So without setting everything up, hit Escape and "Restart Flight"?

Exactly, that should work. 

Thank you. Will try. It's frustrating cause that's a couple of hours of my time down the drain for it just to stop working on approach without any fault of my own.
