A320 FMGS B47

[Firefly77]

Hi JL, thanks for your reply. Thats really strange.... PKG BRK or other Brakes are not active !!! Everything else works fine, startup taxi takeoff inflight. It is just the full stop after touchdown which bothers me....the Plane also does not accept thrust even full thrust until it make thid full stop...Hmmm, does anyone else have this problem or I am the only one ???

Hi!

After ful stop AC try PARK-BRK ON and back to OFF again. Sometimes works. Or deactivate AUTO-Brk manualy (LOW or MED) after pass 70knts.

Regards

Thx ! I will try.

Thx ! I will try.

Disarm an retract the ground spoilers after landing.

Today I made an approach to ESSA. On the Waypoint there was a constraint 4000 ft and 160 kts.
I set the Flaps to full. The plane reduce the speed, but to low. At 120 kts I set the THR to TOGA to avoid a stall but the thrust goes max to 65%. In addition I put the nose down to rise the speed. Don't know what happened here.

Some issues I have concerning with the sioc creator. All these are minor bugs.

I have assigned the 3 IR mode selectors in the sioc creator.
Selector IR3 works normal. IR1 and IR2 I have to switch from OFF to NAV twice to
start the alignment.

I set the seatbelt sign switch to auto. If the plane lifts, the seatbelt sign goes automatically off.
I have assumed that it goes automatically off about 18,000 feet?

Too bad it is not yet possible to add "invert" for an assingment in the sioc creator.
I made some mistakes with wiring some switches. There are on when there should be off.
Tried to fix this with my own sioc code but not very succesfull.

The new Version is a futher little step to make FMGS more realistic.

Hi Fritz,

I have had couple of times pretty same kind of problem and... Check that your engines anti ice is on (and of course the weather conditions).

Then, some questions and "bug" reports:

- I have a problem with brake gauge (have been with every version of FMGS): When the systems are running (engines off) and there is brake pressure if I push either side brake pedal the brake gauges move like it should. Also when I turn handbrake on and off the brake levers move at the gauge. But when the engines are running it doesn't work anymore. When I press brakes the gauges doesn't move anymore. Only when I turn handbrake on/off it works. But if I turn antiskid off, then the gauge works, but if the antiskid is on, only handbrake moves the gauges. Is this normal, or what (usually the pilots does the brake test when they are starting taxiing, I can't...)?

- Then I think at the real A320, when you turn the aerial pressure to standard it should also automatically change the ISIS air pressure to 1013? Is it like this or not?

- When A320 lands it should turn the trims automatically to zero? Mine doesn't...

- I have also the APU exhaust problem, it turns to zero degrees

- When I turn the systems on, the LDG ELEV is always at manual at ecam. I have to turn the LDG ELEV knob from auto to manual and then back to auto. Then it disappears from the display

JL, or anyone, comments and help?

And JL, thanks for the new upgrade, now the OXY light is off and also got some help about the sidestick APP button, I had to make a release button for it as well.

Hi,

thanks for the hint with anti ice. I did not notice this is considered in the simulation.

Can't tell you anything about the brake pressure gauge. I use my own simple sioc script.

What TQ do you use? Mine is a Skalarki TQ 2012. Mostly it trims back to zero when landing but sometimes not. Haven not reconginzed a pattern.

Your issue with the LDG ELEV could have the same reason as mine with the IRS Selector. Which interface card is your CABIN PRESS Mode SEL and MAN V/S Switch connected?

I can confirm the issue with the OXY light is solved.

Triple gauge behavior has been discussed several times over the last years...
This is in the FCOM, it is a normal behavior.

Hello guys i have a simple question. I assimnt a joystick buton to apply parking brakes. But i can't put parking brakes off.
when i put parking brakes ON, they still always On and i don't make they OFF. the is some funtion in jeehell to put parking brake4s OFF?
How i resolve that?

[jeehell]

You need both events: push and release. It won't work as a toggle switch.
