wings must be unfolded FCS Bug

[Midian]

For the last few days I have been unable to get my FCS to pass a bit test when my wings are folded. I have tried many different combinations of flap positions during fcs restart and the bit test including ensuring NWS is disabled.

When my wings are unfolded it passes.

It could possibly be something I am doing so I have attached a track which shows initial fail, then pass after wings unfolded, then failure again.

I have done more research and testing. It is nothing to do with the wings being folded.

If you hold down the fcs bit switch and press the test button on the ddi then release both test will fail. Unless you press the fcs bit switch again.

The funny thing is even if restart is displayed on the ddi if press the fcs bit switch again you will get the beeps and full control but no pass bit is displayed.

This also affects the cold start tutorial. If you follow the instructions it will not work. It worked initially for me months ago though.

Haven't had a chance to try your track, but I haven't had any issue doing this.  Are you HOLDING the BIT SWITCH while you press the button on the DDI?

Yes holding while the button is pressed on the DDI. I have never had an issue with it previously. I also have no mods apart from a livery and have done a full repair.
