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

yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

• start cold & dark
• notice that both nacelles are in open position (should be closed)
• start-up the plane
• copilot assistant is off
• turn on & off the copilot assistant and notice that it does not affect the nacelles, they remain open
• start another flight at a runway, turning on the copilot assistant open the nacelles, turning it off close them. Works as expected in that case

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

Copilot assistant is off:

Nacelles are open:

Hi @SmotheryVase665 ,
There was no other post in that topic but since I have been able to reproduce the issue I think it could be moved back to the Bug Reporting Hub Aircraft & Systems . Do you agree ?

[SmotheryVase665]

Hi @DementedCorn327,
Yes - I’ve moved it back - Don’t forget to vote!

I also have this problem every time I choose the DO31 for a departure from the parking.
The only solution I found is the following:
Go to the tablet, choose Advanced and switch the advanced flight mode from OFF to ON, validate with Yes, then finally switch the advanced flight mode back from ON to OFF

Thanks for the workaround @chrisgibon, I tested it and it works . workaround tag added.
