A A ron Posted June 14, 2021 Posted June 14, 2021 The canopy will not open after the carrier landing. I set up a primary battery fail 30 min into the flight. I never received any caution message on the battery issue. After I recovered back on the aircraft carrier I noticed I cannot open the canopy after shutting down the engines and I cannot get my apu to startup to re-ignite the engines, and then I noticed my primary battery has no voltage. I thought the emergency battery should be able to start the apu and I shouldn't need battery power to open up the canopy.

A A ron Posted June 14, 2021 Author Posted June 14, 2021 The apu and the canopy should run off of both batteries in case of emergency( at least the apu). If an engine flames out and you need to restart and the primary battery has failed then the emergency battery should run the apu( redundant power). I am going to continue researching this one. Feels like a bug.

A A ron Posted June 14, 2021 Author Posted June 14, 2021 Emergency battery was ok with good voltage and switched on but could not open the canopy or start the apu with it.
