Brief description of the issue:
FLC is broke with SU8. I’ve been flying most of the day, went to dinner, came back and was forced to download SU8.
Now, in additional to being able to take off before the props have even completed to spin up (different issue already reported), the FLC is broke.

With AP engaged and FLC set for 190, when I click the IAS button on Honeycomb Bravo, VS goes to 0, and the airspeed just continues to increase…right past the target IAS set for the AP.

I have only attempted with the KA350 and the TBM930. It works fine with the TBM.

Rant: Not sure why, even with a Beta program, this wasn’t found in normal testing. Why is it we have more problems AFTER an update then before the update.

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:

Taking off KLOU (near sea level), Set AP ALT to 10000, set IAS to 190.
Position on runway and takeoff. On initial climb (approx VS 1200 f/m), I switch to AP and engage IAS when reaching ~ 186 IAS. Nose pitches down to VS of 0, and speed increases until I manually throttle back. IAS is ignored as well as ALT. Whatever altitude I’m at when engaging the FLC is where the AP will hold.

PC specs and/or peripheral set up if relevant:
Not relevant, but:
Rayzen 7 5800x
32Gb RAM
1TB m2 SSD
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

Build Version # when you first started experiencing this issue: - 1.23.12.0

Try using the Working Title G3X instead of the stock G3X in the KA.

This issue was reported near the end of the beta and the WT G3X didn’t resolve it for me. Not only that, the WT G3X is harder for me to read, so I removed it. (I am using the WT G1000 from the marketplace though.)

FLC worked for me last night; broken with the recent update

It’s almost like real life; a GA plane with a system not working properly!

Broken for me too sadly.

Will try the G3X and see if that fixes it.

WT G3X didn’t fix it.

same for me , flying often with a cessna 208 , and since yesterday after the update, FLC mode don’t work anymore ( don’t react on climb, or just don’t apply speed limit on descent resulting in overspeed ) , :frowning: and noticed freeze on PFD when changing flc speed bug -_-,
edit : using the Garmin 1000 NXi from marketplace fix this bug

same issue, definitely broken the flc function on the c208.

Having this issue as well.

I’m having the issue as well. Tested on the King Air and the Cub Crafters xcub. FLC does not seem to work on any of the G3X panels in a climb. Seems to work ok in descent, at least on the Xcub.

same problem to me

i love take-off with FLC+AP
but after SU8, FLC is not working.

This appears to be fixed in SU9 beta. If you’re also on the beta, please confirm or deny my finding here or in the following topic I created:
