Brief description of the issue:

When flying an RNAV approach and V-FP has been enabled it is not possible to select any other vertical mode anymore (e.g. VS). After a go-around it also stays and can’t be disabled. Essentially it is stuck at this mode.

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:
After pressing go-around and being on the missed approach, re-enabled AP and NAV but V-FP stays and pressing VS doesn’t do anything:

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

I experienced it independently. After a go around autopilot was stuck in V-FP mode. Clicking any of the veritcal autopilot buttons did nothing.

And apparently this issue was not resolved in version 1.0.36. What a shame.

I have not tested it with the new version. It is a bit disappointing to hear that it is still the case, given that it had the feedback logged tag.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

Yes, any RNAV approach will lock V-FP mode, can’t get visually rid of it. Other vertical modes still work but doesn’t show up.

feedback-logged don’t mean reproduced, it would need bug-logged status instead

That said, it’s a shame that it’s still not fixed

Is this what happened to me here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVqKX7OHj5Q

I don’t think so.
I think your issue may be that you have “cpl” on the AP pointing to the Co-pilot position.

RIP, accidental click…

It is really a shame. The bug is still here. If you fly rnav approach and you activate v-fp mode it cant be deactivated and you can use autopilot any more if you go around. Basically you have to abort the flight and exit sim.
