Brief description of the issue:

XBox series x, build 1.30.12.0 version of Microsoft Flight Simulator
Choose Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner.
Choose airport and its gate to start from.
From cold and dark i start up the airplane’s cockpit.
After asked for ground services’ power unit and fuel truck i begin to plan flight via MCDU from that starting Airport to London Heathrow just to experience that aircraft how works.
I am already able to use either A320 Neo and Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental.
Wanted to masterize also the usage of also this Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner.
Normally (at least in the Xbox version after i turn on only the APU, if i turni on the crossfeed and the pump of the fuel on, strangely the APU deactivates itself and i couldn’t reactivate it again, this happens only on Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner.
Fortunately, after the end of pushback, i could turn on the engines and be in the conditiins to begin taxiing to runway and take off.
But… OH… OOOOHHHH!!! Here’s the great surprise!!! Just the time i turned the engines on and got on outern view camera i realized that the fuel from 100% has descended already to 77%! Without even begin taxi maneuvers! Is the only aircraft with this issue. I couldn’t fly it to destination without finding myself with the fuel voided completely and falling from skies! Its a bug surely either in the APU turning off issue when i turn on the fuel crosssfeed and pump buttons and this abnormal fuel consumption even before moving the plane!!!
The fuel consumption happens even with the only APU on!

The 787 dont burn fuel. If you start the flight with 1 galon of fuel, you arrive to any destination with 1 galon of fuel.
I reinstalled the sim from 0 and the problem continues.

This is the best and the worst game I ever played. The best for the realism and quality…the worst for the continues bugs from the start in August 2020.

We have paid for a working game…and more than 3 years after, we didn’t got it.

I see fuel consumption in the 787.
In the middle of a Hanoi-Singapore flight at the moment. Started with 24000kg and am down to 12.5K. Will finish route with 9.9.

Silly question, but do you have unlimited fuel turned on?

Thanks KingDeschain

I don’t have unlimited fuel turned on. I have the problem only with 787. I tested all other aircraft and with the exemption of the 787, fuel burns Ok

Have you tried this with the crossfeed closed?
It isn’t normal to have this open unless transferring fuel around.
