A320NX Tcas Alerts and Autopilot dissconect by it self

hi guys, at my last approach with approach mode and autopilot on. i experienced some issues with the a320 nx systems. firstly the tcas alerst where no trafic were or when airplanes before or behinde me were. it alerts clim now or descent now. But the airplanes were some miles before or behinde me. Also it trys then to climb or descent and leaves the glide path. After that i m to heigh or to low. And in the Approach mode it fololows first the glide path then it stops to follow the glide path further.

and it disables the autopilot by it self unfortunatly. When i reengage theap it dosent follow anymore the glide path. I have to go i a fast decent with a heigh descentrate to capture the glide path again in hand flying. the result was a realy hardlanding and i was far to fast. after this issues. but hopefully some one can help me or is this an known bug?Approach was at the 07R/07C to EDDF

And i use the newest dev version

regards legendsy

Proper procedure in this situation is to do a go-around. You can’t just force a landing safely when you are no longer stabilized.

If you think TCAS is improperly activating, check the FBW documentation or ask on their Discord channel to make sure. I don’t recall the parameters they use to trigger the alert, but they spent a lot of time on it.

If you just find the forced deviations annoying, or if live traffic and ATC are not handling spacing properly, I think you can change the TCAS switch from TA/RA to just TA and the plane won’t deviate. Obviously this is not what you would ever do in real life, but then again the sim does not actually vector traffic on approaches like real life and sometimes other planes join an approach right on top of you :slight_smile:
