There have been some reports of performance issues and degradation in the A320 and A321 models that were observed by some but not all pilots. These include, among others, poor climb performance in IAE models and jerky ground movements. I hypothesize that AccuFeel v2 may be a link between these issues. If you are encountering any flight performance issues with the A320 and A321 models, try these steps: - Perform a flight with AccuFeel turned off (either globally or for the selected model only) and monitor the flight performance. Did the aircraft perform normally with AccuFeel off? - Turn AccuFeel back on and repeat the same flight, taking note of any issues you fa…

Before asking any question, read here. Q: The AP does not work! A: Yes it does, but you probably are confused between managed and selected mode. We're not in a Boeing! Start with the Vol 6 step by step flight manual and all will be clear. Q: The IAE engines seem to be better simulated than the CFM engines. Fuel flow etc. A: True, we are redoing some of the modules for the CFM engines. They should arrive soon. Q: The IAE engines take a much longer time to start. A: IAE have a dry crank feature to prevent tailpipe fires on start.

Hey! Is there a way to deactivate Go Around mode? Once it activates, i cant do landing checklist and the next others. I would like to know how can i deactivate the GA mode. I´ve got the A320/A321 Steam Version, i guess the last updated version for Steam.

Every time I am in the descent and approach, at the time of activating the approach phase, the plane goes down to a speed of 220 knots as it is configured, the problem is that immediately after this the pitch angle of the plane rises up to 15 ° which gives me the feeling that the plane is at stall speed and a very inclined approach, unprofessional, and clearly proof that something is not right. I have the doubt if the problem is due to a bad configuration of MCDU or a bad configuration of the flight controls, such as the Pitch Trim. I am not an expert flying the a320 and I try to learn on my own so I am not sure if the trim should change position during the flight o…

Hello Dear Aerosoft, My FSX DLC Aerosoft A321/320 is acting really weird, After Departure everything is set correctly how ever the A/P would not follow the given path for some reason (that only happens sometimes) and it randomly climbs at a very steep angle of 4500 Feet per minute on descend it does the same thing which makes me gain alot of Airspeed and makes the aircraft shake i lost 2hrs of flight time cause of this as i wasnt able to descend correctly and when its departure i lose alot of airspeed which gets me stalling. Please tell me what that is it has never happened before and if you could maybe fix it thank you

yesterday I bought the aerosoft a320 and everything was fine, but the only problem that was not solved is that when reaching cruising altitude, at times the plane activates the master warn and raises the flight level for seconds, how can I control that?

On some flights whenever I reach my cruising altitude the master caution and warning come on and the plane pitches up for about 5-10 seconds then keeps climbing at a slower rate even though it is above cruising altitude. Help would be appriciated.

I see this has been a problem for several years, but apparently there is no resolution yet, at least none that I can find. I routinely get current NAVDATA from Navigraph, but the SIDs and STARs are not up to date, they have missing waypoints that cannot be entered, and even the flight plans have missing waypoints that also cannot be added. Any support, recommendations or solutions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, i've follow several post about changin aerosoft fuel capacity and works fine in the aircraft. The only issue i had is that when i request gsx refueling for 85000kg for example, the fuel truck arrives, get atached to the wing and just refuel for 1s and leave, without loading the correct fuel amount. Is there any other fix i must to do in order to make gsx refuel the aircraft with this fuel capacity modification? Thanks

I have the A320/321 Professional running on FSX. The issue I have is I cannot engage autopilot and auto-thrust the assigned keys. I can engage them by left clicking with the mouse, and also right clicking to disengage them, but the key assignments do not engage them. Oddly, once they have been engaged with the left mouse key, I can then disengage them with the assigned key. Has anyone else had this issue and what could be causing this?

This evening, I was playing FSX and flying the A321, when the power idled, it was stuck at “THR IDLE, DES, and NAV.” When on approach to KCLT runway 36R, it still said THR IDLE, but said G/S, LOC and CAT 1, 1 FD 2, and A/THR. Then I performed a go-around. And when I engaged the autopilot, it started pitching up like crazy and had to disconnect it and the managed speed was stuck at 128 knots even though the PROG page on the MCDU said 194 knots. It did the same thing when I approached the runway a second time.

So first sign of something being wrong that at the Checklist in the sidestick part, it doesn't recognize the pull down event. Then, I'm on final for runway 2 in Brussels (it can be any runway, the pitch down never works) and I disconnect autopilot to manually land. but then: I can't control the elevators to go down inorder to reduce the pitch, but i can control pitch up. It's nothing with the pitch trim, i can even do 4 Downwards and nothing really changes, it does pitch a bit down but then it goes full way to stall again. Please help, i have this in every flight with that plane.

After departure, I noticed the SRS not active. At about 200' agl, I put the A320 on AP 1. The aircraft slowly pitched up and activated TOGA LOCK . The auto thrust system seemed ok after passing the Thrust Reduction/ ACL altitude. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks, GaryO

I have some problems with the A330 in P3Dv5. I have had this while taxing but also after liftoff: I was in external view and switched back to cockpit to prepare for takeoff. The aircraft was moving slowly. Suddenly, it run away uncontrollable with like 200 knots on the ground, like somehow switchting to an uncontrollable slew mode (although of course, I didn't switch to slew). I remember a similar problem when doing instant replay in P3dv4 for the landing. After the replay was finished and you switch back to normal, the aircraft would suddenly pick up speed and move away uncontrollable. If it happens after liftoff, there are also big problems with control…

Hi again, I got a question about the "stall.wav" in the airbus sounds. is it me or there´s no stall alert yet? I was trying to stall my plane several times and it never has worked. So then I download a ilegal version to look if that was solved...but nop. For some reason it does not work for me. Is it on the fsx? or why is that .wav sound file there?

Hey guys So I had programmed to do an rnav rnp approach in runway 02 of airport SKPC. I chose the approach in fmc.. And then... When I checked the ND.. I found that as per charts there must be a left 02 arc... Connecting the two waypoints... But in ND this arc was not there... I did engage the appr button as I reached the rnav final approach point as per charts.. The vdev diamond did appear.. However I saw that the arc which appears in chart did not appear on ND and hence the plane didn't follow the rnav approach and ended up descending and crashing. I was stunned thinking what happened... Is aerosoft airbus not modeled to rnav rnp approaches having arc type …

I am constantly getting A.Floor coming on at various stages of climb, today just going through FL170 for no reason. Gear up, flaps up, speedbrake back to normal position and throttles set to climb power as requested by PFD. At times I get A.floor at other levels of climb. I have reinstalled the aircraft yesterday and no difference. I fly the B738 and 777 with no issues like this. Since your recent update I cannot change frequency on my hardware via Spadnext. I can change squark code and QNH all OK. I have seen reports of this on social media so I know I am not the only person with this issue. Please come back to me ASAP as the Airbus is unfly…

I'm using P3dv5 and Aerosoft Airbus. When I start a flight, most things go reasonably well and I get to cruise level without much trouble. The problems begin as I approach T/D and initiate descent. About 5-10nm before reaching T/D, I dial down the altitude to 2000. The Airbus noses down to V/S of only 300 f/m - I expect 1000 f/m, but it doesn't happen. If I leave it like this it overflies the runway at an altitude of thousands of feet. As it goes through FL 10,000 I press the LS button and right click on the altitude knob (which doesn't always engage to show the ball indicator). To try and correct, I have tried dialing in a V/S descent on -1000 or -1500, …

Hi, during NPA I have the following issue. When I press trk button on FCU and I select the glide angle, I read FPA xx° on PFD - ok it's right. But as I pass through a previous displayed altitude in FCU (ie 3000 ft) the PFD indication changes to ALT●. I need to press for level off and select again the path angle to have back FPA xx°. Is it a correct behaviour? Thanks for comments about!

I have been flying the Airbus A319/320 just fine over past months. The past three flights I get A.Floor coming on after take of, sometimes after I have decreased power and if I can restore flight at another point in the flight. Throttles are set to second detent and spped, altitude are as per the flight plan. Is there a bug in the system which is just showing its face now or something else? Flying with P3Dv4.5 and other aircraft such as Boeing 737 and 77 are good. Thanks, Laurie

As we all know when the A330 lands the body gear actuates and folds flat, but when I try to land mine, no matter the vertical speed, the body gear doesn't seem to unfold. Also when I engage reversers upon landing, the effect of them and the sound is perfectly fine, but the doors don't appear open. If anyone could help me fix this issue that would be great.

Hi, Since several weeks I am having the problem that the Airbus shuts down into a C&D state and I am dead in the water. This happens after approx 1 to 1.5 hours of flying. I have seared the forum, but never could find a resolve for the issue. I uninstalled and re-installed all my Airbus products A318, 319, 320, 321 & 330. I am running P3Dv4. This just started several weeks ago. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated Thanks Juergen Mader
