Cheat auto stop/start activates by itself during flight

[mibo]

Hello,

Have a problem that during flight (training case 1 carrier landing) in "Instant action" the auto stop or sometimes auto start is starting by itself.. This obviously shuts down F-18 systems. I have a switch on the throttle that activates auto start/stop but it is assigned with a Modifier. No other functions are assigned to the switch. The thrott.e is a Saitek Rhino x55. I suppose it is this throttle that causes the issue or it might be a bug in F-18. Has anyone an idea? This happens normally just on final approach. Thanks for replies

Hello

 

Not seen or had this issue, more likely it is your binding activating when it should not.

this also happens to me in Flaming cliffs 3 planes, i had binds on my warthog HOTAS Throttle. its as if the throttle would unplug itself and reset. Removed binds and haven't had any issues since.

 

so just flying my plane would "reset" so canopy would open, electrical would turn off(LAlt+L).

Think I found the solution. Changed usb port. Must be 3.0 and possibly be powered to avoid ghost inputs. X55 and Logitech x 56 are power hungry.

Glad you sorted it out, my suggestion was going to be potentially a hardware issue (internal for the HOTAS), as that is what it sounded like to me.
