    Slow thrust

    Hi guys wondering if somebody could help me. With some aircraft mainly the POSKY A330 the thrust can be a little all over the place while on approach. The FCU finds it hard to keep the VAPP speed and it drops and climbs above it quite a bit. Is there anything I can do to make it more stable so that the FCU captures the speed smoothly and quickly? It's fine with the iFDG A320 aircraft.

    Thanks

    I had some trouble with that kind of thing quite some time ago when I was working with my airbus.

    I think I solved it by changing my payload and fuel. Lower the ammount of fuel in the aircraft so that you only have what is required to make the flight, do not overload, as if your GLW is higher then the model is rated, that aircraft will have difficulty maintaing the speed.

    I swear that Airbus tried to kill me many times....

    Hey it might work, give it a go.

    THis may be a case of the aircraft you are using auto pilot arguing with PMs. If it works fine with another AC this is the first thing I would try. Is there a way to remove the panels from this AC?

    Hi Bob I'm not using any panel with any of the aircraft I use, just a blank config file Enrico sent me.

    Cheers

    I think it might be an issue with FS or how the addon might be proggrammed I love PSS´s A320 but the Autothrust issue is amazing specially when changing speeds in approach phases, I do not see that a lot on the 767 Level D might be worth checking with the guy that made the file.
