ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
A/C(any airplane :white_check_mark: YES/helicopter never issues :cross_mark:NO) will not role forward under power when brakes are released.:white_check_mark:
Have to exit flight and then resume. :cross_mark:NO
Irregular behavior, sometimes it works just good like supposed to be.
Other times you have to insist 2- 5times maximum(laptop only).
Xbox X less frequent, 1 out of 5times, maximum 2 commands repeatedly necessary.

To round it up, if you would like to, and I do suggest:
On Xbox X with HD Monitor 27" 1920 x 1080 75Hz.
Laptop inbuild screen reduced to 60Hz, or with external monitor at 50Hz, 60Hz or furthest 75Hz.
Temperature on Xbox X lower with FS compared to demanding games.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue: Any airplane(see note) in my 40th anniversary deluxe edition, MSFS2020, version 1.38.2.0
Note
except big airbus, boeing 777, these big ones still did not enjoy.

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue? The program took ages to load anything, without I have to do anything.
This happend since for the very first time I downloaded the MSFS2020(IMPORTANT).
When I pay for an program in deluxe version certainly i will not remove this addon.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you:
Laptop: It might be none, 2times, 5times, irregular.
Xbox X less frequent, see above.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Load flight simulator. Let stabilize an instant. Give things time, I am not on a run anyway.
  2. Go on world map, choose Airport depart(any in this case worldwide, no matter where). * Note more frequent apparently in my guess at home area or frequent used smaller airports of my choice(Pacific island, south America, USA Sedona, Europe. Details I will give only per e-mail for privacy.
  3. Adjust time to your taste/like, I am new in this so I do like to see where I am.
  4. If you do not make an test fly(conditions), obviously choose also arrival.
  5. Go for your flight. Always wait an small instant, I am not in a hurry.
  6. Independent if you choose cockpit mode or external view this will happen, in the begin it seemed to me more frequent and unresolvable in cockpit view. At first I did not understand what is happening. First impressions when I ever launched sim: what is wrong. I do give slightly, medium or full gas and nose just goes a bit down. And I just released parking brakes. This was on screen confirmed.
    So I do not understand sincerely.

YOUR SETTINGS

easy or custom(turn off AI in piloting)

Graphic settings, LOW, medium, highend or ultra.
It seems to me more frequent with TAA(which looks better), less frequent with Nvidia "quality"settings.
Attention I do only make these adjustments in MSFS2020. No enhance program graphic ever used any way cause of lack of trust. Nvidia kiddis App I kicked out, always same issue with or without this kind of an Graphic App.
Recently Omen got an update to get more FPS in, never used.
In System Windows I got under Display anything I do really need, simple.

If the issue still occurs with no mods and add-ons, please continue to report your issue.
See above, I do not uninstall the deluxe addon, because I purchased fully included as intented from MS store. Unluckly in my area(only by e-mail I do deliver these details) is not available the premium deluxe edition in ENG, other whilst I would surely have this one.

What peripherals are you using, if relevant:

Keyboard:
Razer 10keyless DeathstalkerV2Pro, US Eng layout. Connected wired or with dongle. No external USB Hub employed nor powersaving in OS W11. Never.

IMPORTANT NOTE,
I tested uninstalling any above mentioned peripheral with Revo Uninstall latest Version and had it a try as well.
Results are same.
I did delete my cloud settings on laptop as Xbox X, if you do it on one the other will be done. In my case deleted from laptop.
All peripherals new, nothing faulty second hand.

I got long path anyway for other, this should work.

    Tested also leaving anything on, it is just the same.

[END OF FIRST USER REPORT]

Thank you for your time.

How can I give your Team a Thumbs up. :+1:

Not Binding related. Was working fine until 2 days ago. Have not bound any controls that would, I believe, effect the Parking Brake.

I am unable to reproduce the reported issue. When I release brakes and accelerate, the aircraft rolls as it should.

No problem, thanks for looking at it. Maybe it’s just one of those things and it’ll sort itself out?

Hi,

I do not know what is happening there, it is weird.

I made Tests additional just regulating down the brightness off LED`s in T.A.R.G.E.T, and more frequent seems to be such failure.

Thats why I do not use at all T.A.R.G.E.T.

One strange thing I still would like to comment.

When I start PC, I do look under game controllers, if everything is good connected, because I seen lesser frequent total failure, that there are issues in the past inside MSFS2020 withOUT my additional control looking, checking here under. Before SIM launch.

Without my personalized Control the rate of failure is higher.
This in SIM in MSFS 2020 affects also the external keyboard.
I don’t get it when anywhere else works fine, also ON other machines.

It might be some other Problem, who knows.
But failure only appears in FS.

So I might suspect that something gets maybe cut off now and again.

I got no sleep mode activated nowhere especially in the USB settings.

Thats strange so far no one else replied here. And I read in forum already these kind of issues recently with other issues together which fits in the failures, where I still got some additional ones.

Would like to know how how far W11 can intervene for I don’t know.

I would love to know what I could do to prevent this and go flying.

Some more maybe it might help:
I seen more than onces and not frequently that appeared my equipment correctly under options, but especially the the heavy joystick for “stearing” did not work visible in the option menu in MSFS2020.
In this case I restart the computer.

Frequently I do see an App, which is called “t” which wants to prevent to restart my computer to shut down. Does anyone have an idea what it is.
Might it be something with this.
I got no idea.
Malware undetected?
I do not know and I do check actively my laptop.
