A320 Taxiing problem

Post by MisterZ »

Hi everybody,
I have a big issue : my a320 is taxiing alone, without any throttle. It's not a hardware problem I checked.
Is there something wrong ? :
empty_weight=96401.4
empty_weight_roll_MOI=959904.000000
empty_weight_pitch_MOI=1710000.000000
empty_weight_yaw_MOI=1230000.000000
empty_weight_coupled_MOI=0.000000
max_gross_weight=169756
reference_datum_position=0.0000,0.000000,0.000000
empty_weight_CG_position=0.63,0.000000,0.000000
CG_forward_limit=0.18
CG_aft_limit=0.40

[GeneralEngineData]
engine_type=1
fuel_flow_scalar=1.09
Engine.0=13.500000,-18.95,-5.125
Engine.1=13.500000,18.95,-5.125
min_throttle_limit=-0.43

[jet_engine]
thrust_scalar=1.000

[TurbineEngineData]
fuel_flow_gain=0.00247
inlet_area=29.3000
rated_N2_rpm=15183.000000
static_thrust=28000.000000 //do not change!
afterburner_available=0
reverser_available=2
bypass_ratio=5.40
Thanks for helping !

Hallo!

I am not exactly sure what you mean, but the behaviour that the A320 is taxying with idle power is correct and realistic. You might like to find further information at http://www.pairbus.com/discussion/viewt ... f=6&t=1158.

If you mean that the A320 is moving at idle thrust with brakes on, that is another topic. I myself just posted a topic for that problem, which you may find at http://www.pairbus.com/discussion/viewt ... f=6&t=1620. Let's see if there is any solution to this.

theltalpha :
My problem is close to yours, but when I brake, the plane stops, but when I release the plane will accelerate even with IDLE thrust.

I use the A320 V2, can it be the problem ?

*edit : I tried the V1, it has the same problem

I think it's maybe the .air file. I'll try this afternoon...

I believe this is normal and a necessary evil to make the A320 have the proper N1 indications during flight.

Regardless besides the needed breakaway thrust(which the PA A320 does not need) its completely normal to taxi with idle power in an A320.

Ok, apparently it's a problem with my fsx because the new PMDG 737NGX has the same problem.
Anyway, thanks for helping guys !
