Callsign JoNay Posted March 28, 2022 Posted March 28, 2022 One of the guys in my wing discovered a bug where after using auto throttle control once and then using auto pilot afterwards, the AP overrides the throttle levers in a way that is not intended. See video demonstration below:
Alekfenrir Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 Made an account to report this as well. Did a landing on a land base PG map, had the throttles and the flaps (spoiler brake) logic utterly stop as well.
Callsign JoNay Posted March 30, 2022 Author Posted March 30, 2022 Still a problem after today's patch, although not surprised since I just reported it two days ago. Hopefully it gets fixed in the next patch. I enjoy the auto throttle when it works.
RodWan Olds Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 Can confirm. After AT is engaged, any time AP is on the throttle is unresponsive.
WarthogOsl Posted April 2, 2022 Posted April 2, 2022 I'm finding this is an issue regardless of whether AP was engaged or not. Once I engage AT, it becomes impossible to move the throttle manually again, even if you flip the AT switch off.

I should say I tested with a mission where I started in the air. I think I had read somewhere that when you do that, it might actually start the jet with the autopilot on briefly, before switching off automatically. I've not tried it yet from a cold start.
WarthogOsl Posted April 4, 2022 Posted April 4, 2022 Okay, so tried it again, this time on a flight from a cold start where I never touched AP. AT still breaks the throttle control. It's effectively useless because you can no longer do a go around on a bolter.
FlyingTaco21 Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) Had this happen as well on an A during field landing. Throttled down and then no more inputs were accepted i switched to manual throttle mode and that didn't work. Can still cut the power and start engines again, but it acts like the aircraft is not seeing the axis. Actually cleared and rebound my bindings and got no response. Had to restart thr mission to get it to work again. Edit read or heard something about a mechanical linkage that could only be reset by the ground crew, but that specifically effected the auto pilot itself, not the throttles. If the link broke you just couldn't use autopilot as I recall, but I mention it here because I thought it might be associated in some way Edited April 8, 2022 by FlyingTaco21
