haseen 5 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Dear: I read the tutorial and Chuck's guide. I tried quite a no. of flights with CRJ 1000 Pro. I set FD TO mode before takeoff roll. FD modes show TO in the PFD, but pitch bar shows 0 deg pitch. With flaps 8, V2 was 148, so target was 158. At Vr, I rotated to 10 deg pitch, retracted gears. As I maintained 10 deg pitch, the FD pitch bar was showing only 6 deg pitch. When I pressed SPEED button, SPEED CLB mode did not engage, rather ALT mode engaged. Altitude was set to 11000 ft. and my departure airport VGJR elevation was 20 ft. Any help? Regards, Haseen Ahmad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffie3000 96 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Which action do you expect after activating the Speed button? Wolfgang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haseen 5 Posted November 29, 2019 Author Share Posted November 29, 2019 I would like to see speed button lights up, FD pitch mode shows CLB xxx(existing airspeed), and following FD pitch bar manually will help maintain that speed.

I have had the same issues as a matter of fact, from time to time.... after lift-off I attempted to engage IAS mode but FMA instead showed ALTS.

Hoffie3000 96 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 @haseen Do you have some screenshot of that situation? PFD and Nav Display would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haseen 5 Posted November 30, 2019 Author Share Posted November 30, 2019 @Hoffie3000 @Hans Hartmann Dear Hans and Hoffie3000: Please find the attached pics. 1. After takeoff FD only provides a pitch up command of only 5 deg. I expect it gives such a pitch up command that V2+10 speed i e 159 kts here can be maintained manually by following the pitch up command. It should be around 15 deg. 2. As per Chuck's guide maintaining 10 deg pitch, causes to increase the speed above V2+10 and accelerate further. Pressing SPEED buttton causes ALT button to light up. 3. PFD FMA Pitch mode shows green ALTS i e FD ALT mode in engaged. How can I get CLB xxx mode? Hope these help. Haseen Ahmad. Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image.

Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted November 30, 2019 Developer Share Posted November 30, 2019 I get way more than just 10 degrees here. As of now I don't have an idea or explanation why you don't. The calculation starts at a pitch for 3000fpm and once airborne, it changes to reach and hold the selected speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus82 21 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I suffer from same symptoms. Will try to post a video tomorrow. I use the same Linda module that worked for the old CRJ and had no issues there. And I have tried pushing speed button on FCP, but ALTS is displayed as pitch FMA. It's not until I get to around 1000' AGL that I can select IAS mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffie3000 96 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 @haseen The autopilot of the CRJ is not as sophisticated as on other aircraft such as an A320 or B737. The airplane must be built cheaply in order to be competitive. Some of the actions that the AP performs on these planes have to be performed by the CRJ pilots. You will see the CLB Speed in the PFD if you activate the SPEED button. Also the FD flight path indicator only comes after take-off when the autopilot is activated. Please login to display this image. I do it in such a way that I preset NAV and SPEED on the ground and activate the autopilot at a safe altitude after take-off. Ignore the 96KIAS the Picture was shoot before I set Speed higher. Please login to display this image. I set the SPEED as the SID allows. That's about 190-250KIAS. If there is no SID as in VGJR, I do this depending on the flight plan. Please login to display this image.

Developer Hans Hartmann 3694 Posted December 1, 2019 Developer Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hoffie, what you fly there is a CRJ 1000. That works a little differently than the other models. It's limited to 10° pitch until the gear is retracted to avoid tailstrikes. This limit doesn't apply to the -550/-700/-900. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hans, that was the reason to choose the CRJ1000. I saw just some moments ago the other behaviour of the CRJ900. Wolfgang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus82 21 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Ok so had the chance to do two takeoffs today (no video unfortunately) FCP variables: HDG= Runway heading SPEED selected= V2+10KTS ALTITUDE= 6000FT On the ground FMA: TO TO After gear up FMA: TO ALTS (which is not right since I pushed SPEED button) 400FT RA FMA FMS1 ALTS (still not able to select IAS mode) 1000FT RA FMA: FMS1 IAS XXX (finally IAS mode can engage, but seems like 1000FT RA is some kind of threshold for me?)

haseen 5 Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 Nexus82 is **** right. It's not behaving as it should at takeoff. Haseen Ahmad. MOD edit. Watch your language the next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
