I am relatively new to simming, but I wonder if I’m doing something wrong when it comes to getting ready to pushback from the gate. I have completed the checklists to this point. Out of nowhere, the throttles go to full (104%) and an alarm sounds with “Takeoff configuration error” displayed on the dash (in red on the dash). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Do you have any assists on?

I have this on 747 AFTER pushing her back on taxi if I use AI piloting

I’ve had this occur a couple of times. I’m in the habit of moving the throttles full forward and then back to idle to “settle” the controls before even turning the battery on.
I’ve had no further issues since.
I already went through all the assists and none are on for the throttles. Or even pilot assist. I’m gonna keep trying different things…. Thanks for the idea though! I appreciate it.

I’m going to try that with moving the the throttles full on then idle before kicking the battery on. Thanks!
