no Brief description of the issue:
Speed brake lever armed/retracted positions have been swapped.
Detail steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
To arm the ground spoilers you need to move the speed brake lever to the fully forward position, instead of the correct slighty further aft and marked arm position.
Using the speed brakes in flight also moves the lever only between the fully extended and the (previously correct) armed position, instead of the fully forward position
Build Version # when you first started experiencing this issue:
1.20.6.0
Neither can I. Have you been able to bind a key or button to the spoilers, instead of trying to moving it in-game? I’ll have to try it out later, almost seems like they disabled the use of speedbrakes somehow while keeping it “armed” by default…
I updated my premium deluxe content, i.e. the 787, via content manager and the speed brakes moves now. It does require more force than I remembered it being to pull it back but it works for me
Yes I can move the lever from Down to Armed and beyond. What i meant was that the position has been swapped for the speedbrake to toggle when you land. Previously, when I set it to “Armed”, the spoiler will automatically deploy upon touch down. Now, it won’t deploy unless I keep it at the “Down” position. Can we share this issue so it can be fixed?
can we log this as a bug? Same issue here where the speedbrake lever if set to Armed will not deploy the spoiler upon touch down. It has to be set to “Down” (fully forward position, which is incorrect)
Wow really it’s reversed - going to have to check that out … good catch. No wonder nobody found out if there was a temporary work around. Its like putting the flap lever down to raise the flaps lol.
It encapsulates the essence of this product doesn’t it - very nice to look at but realism is anything but. Unfortunately the 787 is hardly flown I think, going from the number of posts here about it. Although the external model is very well done - things like the speedbrake behaviour, the STD toggle not working, the flightmodel (flaps up = nosedive…), the main landing gear not properly compressing on landing, the crazy calculated V speeds… We really didn’t get much value by paying extra for it and that’s pretty annoying. If it wasn’t for 3rd party devs patching up these airliners (even though the 787 is heavily DRMed) there would be no default airliner worth flying!
