Hi @SgtLiam99,

I’m unsure if there is any specific bug here, nor do I believe it to be related to the SU3 Beta just from the description and accompanying screenshots provided.

I noticed that your airspeed is showing a value of roughly 215 knots on the PFD in the screenshots, which is most likely why your rate of climb is so slow at that altitude if the aircraft is attempting to speed up to the managed speed target of 300 knots.

Do you have a screenshot of your engine display? Are the engines giving you climb thrust?

[SgtLiam99]

Hi there! That’s my fault for the misleading screenshot! I was attempting to climb steeply with V-speed and then switched back to managed to see if that fixed it which is why it was so slow. The aircraft was indeed climbing at that rate near 300kts.

[SgtLiam99]

Just about to give it another go! I’ll gather a few more screenshots! I may have made a mistake but I followed the same procedures as in SU2 and never faced issues.

@BigCow74 @Chewwy94 Apologies! Seems to be climbing relatively normal now. I must’ve made a mistake on the previous flight although I feel like I did the exact same as this time! Apologies for that

6400 fps, yes you’re really climbing now

[Chewwy94]

No need to apologise at all! One thing to keep an eye out on is your TAT, SAT, and ISA in the bottom left of the lower ECAM display. There may be an issue if you have an extremely high ISA temperature (say 30c or more) at high altitude that could cause the low rate of climb. Alternatively you may have accumulated icing on the wings if you have the icing model in the sim turned on!
