Autothrust disengages itself randomly on PS5

This happened to me on PC yesterday - first time I’ve encountered it (even after having used the Longitude since SU4, so it would be strange for it to be related to that).

Same symptom, randomly disconnected with the accompanying alarm.

I’ll try other aircraft (PC12/PC24 tonight) to see if I have the same issue.

Today I managed to capture the errormessage, that shows up for just a fraction of a second, when the Autothrust disconnects. As a PS5 player I took a video from my TV and luckily it disconnected just after a few seconds. So I could scroll trough the video and get this error, which is shown in the G5000 in the Cessna Citation Longitude. In the shown case the plane was a FL 400 or so, leveled out and in stable cruise at Mach 0.800 (as I have set up) ± few knots.

Unfortunately the other planes, where I saw disconnecting AT, didn’t show any message, as far as i can tell. At least I haven’t seen one yet.

This message is only visible for a some milliseconds or so…

Today I did a few longitude VIP missions. In one mission i hat AT stable for several minutes. In another flight it disconnected every 10 seconds. I could not find any logic behind it.

Did you observe this in other planes too? I have it in many of them. Longitude, Visionjet, pc12ngx, pc24….

None of them keeps AT alive for a longer timeperiod

Maybe it’s relevant: Currently I only play carreer mode. The above mentioned issues were found using carreer mode. But i guess, they are also relevant for free flight mode, but I haben’t tested.

Upon trying to replicate the AT disconnect issues: It happens very often in carreer mode for me.

Had also a A/T disconnect on the 737 Max today. I couldn’t say if it was the same bug, I observed on the other planes. But it did only happen once in the 737, so I am not sure, if it is the same bug or had another reason.

But for the PC12NGX, PC24, Citation Longitude and the Vision Jet i can confirm, that they all suffer the same AT disconnect issue. Can we please get a fix, soon?
