UlfB 2 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Hi, Just uninstalled the 1.10 and made a clean install of the 1.20. When preparing for take off I set autobrakes to MAX. And when I set flaps to 1 the autobrake setting will go off. As long as I have flaps extended I can't set autobrake to any value. I use the CH throttle quadrant and FSUIPC for the flaps axis. No problems with the 1.10 version. Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbd80 258 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Hi. I only find this happens when the Parking Brake is set. However, I don't have an issue otherwise setting the speedbrake after setting flaps. Is this happening using a particular start up preference like Cold & Dark etc Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UlfB 2 Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 Thanks, Chris! Having parking brakes set was the problem. EDITED: Is this a feature or a bug. Seems odd that the autobrake setting should go off when you set the parking brakes when waiting for take of clearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy B. 40 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 It's an unintended side-effect of getting the auto brakes to disable on the landing roll out when the pilot uses the toe brakes to take over with manual braking. Arming the speed brakes after entering the runway with PB off is no problem to me, you should be checking the take off state again anyway just before the roll.

Hi everyone, I am still unable to disconnect to autobrake on roll-out using toe-brakes. I can disconnect them when decel is not lit on the pushbutton, but as soon as they are actively braking the aircraft, I have to use the pushbutton. It's not a major problem, but makes staying on the centreline a bit tricky when landing in a crosswind as you have to delve around in the vc. Any ideas on how I could solve this?

Chris I'll see if we can also check the toe brakes for this, could be we missed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The autobrake will go off if I apply the brakes with my CH pedals or with the keyboard. No problem there on my system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_327 42 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Ok, I'm not using rudder pedals as I don't have any!, and have brakes set to the main trigger on my X52. I have also tried pressing the keyboard, but this doesn't work either . I might try doing a completely clean re-install of Airbus X, but what entries in the cfg etc do I need to remove? I also don't have FSUIPC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_327 42 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Ready for the really bizarre bit? Just did some quick testing, LOW setting on landing, no disconnect using either method MED setting on landing, no disconnect using either method MAX setting on landing, does not engage at all. RTO - AB disconnects perfectly using both X52 and keyboard Weird isn't it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next week we'll pull that bit of code up again and see how we can change it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
