TCAS fails ALL the time? Or just when you're on the ground? I only get that message when I'm on the ground so as soon as I get airborne the warning message goes away and the TCAS works fine. I think it's supposed to work like that.

I think we are all having that issue with the throttles staying at 100%.

thank you for your reply, yes my tcas fails at the ground and works fine in the air, no i know its supposed to work like that. But it gets me mad that the throttle stays at 100 percent not realistic.

I am not sure I understand what you mean by the throttle stays at 100 percent. Is this occurring on your joystick or yoke, throttle levers in VC or 2D cockpit pedestal panel, EPR or N1 info in the EICAS? If I know where the problem occurs I might have a solution.

the throttle stays at 100 percent in the throttle and it also displays in the eicas.Also I have followed the fix for not hearing sonds in the cockpit such as seatbelts and clicks where u have to edit the sound.ini but still cant hear sound. Also i dont know if its supposed to be like this but the sound wont play in the 757 sound library that corresponds to the cockpit sounds.

For the sound problems I can only point you toward this thread http://www.captainsim.org/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1242905995. I really don't know what sounds are modeled and what ones aren't so I have no idea if I have all the sounds or not.

The only time I use the throttle on the joystick, in the VC or 2D cockpit is to taxi at airports. I never use it for takeoffs. On a takeoff where both LNAV and VNAV are armed, I press the EPR button for takeoff thrust. The amount of thrust can be adjusted by entering a temp on the takeoff page in the CDU. The higher the temp the less thrust. Once your are several hundred feet in the air press one of the CMD buttons to engage the autopilot. Shorty thereafter the EPR light will go out and VNAV will assume control of the throttles. I have got to go now so I will finish this with another post tommorrow. Hope this helps.

I am back. The first situation would cover a takeoff to airports say plus 30 miles out such as KTPA to KATL or KJFK. Lets say you just wanted to fly to a close airport to do practice approachs and landings and didnot want to go higher than 3000 AGL or over 250 KIAS. You would probably plan a route and enter into the FMC therefore LNAV would be armed but I don't arm VNAV because the plane would accelerate to about 300 KIAS and shoot right thru 3000 feet up to about 37-3800 feet before it would start to decent to 3000. What I would do is enter 250 in the IAS/MACH window, 2000 in the VERT SPD window and press or arm the V/S button and 3000 in the ALT window. I would start the takeoff roll by pressing the EPR button. Once the plane reached 2-300 feet I would press the CMD button and the autopilot would take control except for the speed or thrust since VNAV was not armed. At about 220 KIAS I would press the SPD button to disengage EPR thrust ortherwise the plane would continue to accelerate to who knows what. If LNAV was not armed and engaged it should make no difference except you will have to guide the plane yourself.

Both of these situations do not result in a throttle stuck at 100%. I have never touched the throttle. This works for me. It might not work for other people and there maybe other ways of achiving the same results. Every successfull simmer probably has there own method for taking off. Your mileage may vary.

OK. I've done a couple of flights in the 757 and I noticed that my throttle does not stay at 100%. I'm sure it used to, but it certainly isn't now. On every flight the throttle was moving back and forth to hold airspeed during climbs, cruise and descent.

Like Mike, I only use my joystick throttle for taxiing and use EPR for takeoff.

Having a problem with 757 latest version installed as administrator.
Help! Great add on EXCEPT:
I line up stand up the thrust levers beyond 1.10 EPR, I hit the EPR button and the throttles just go to full no matter what I do short of disarming the AUTO THROTTLES. FLCH or VNAV do nothing to pitch mode or Throttles. I have flown the RW extensively and this is not how the RW system works. I must be having a conflict or a bug?
HELP!
I cannot post this to my own thread because I am new here?
Please help.
Thanks guys.
Very close to being a great product!
PS I have read the other similar posts but I am not seeing a resolution. Markoz, I KNOW you can fix me up! Smiley

It's the way it's programmed (a bug?) because mine does that too. Sad

FLCH works for me, but it seems to take a while before it starts to happen.
Also. I don't arm LNAV and VNAV, I turn them ON after I turn the A/P on, and VNAV works for me once I turn I do that.

Unfortunately not. You need 10 posts before being able to create your own topic. It's an anti-spam measure that Captain Sim have chosen to use.

In the latest version of the 757 Captain, v4.6, FSUIPC is no longer necessary.

When I loaded and flew the Captain Sim 757 today, to see if mine did the same as yours, I had forgotten how much I love it! Mind you, that happens with all my Captain Sim addon aircraft! Cheesy

Thanks for the comments. Is there ANY FSX KEY COMMAND that I am supposed to be using? I.E. Go around, AUTO THROTTLE ENGAGE?
Thanks.
ON FSUIPC, am I supposed to disable something in there?

As far as I know, once you engage the TOGA switches or the EPR button, the throttles go to full. I'm not sure if pressing CTRL+SHIFT+G does the same as I've never used it in the 757 (I usually just click on one of the TOGA switches on the throttle levers). I'll have to test the keyboard shortcut, but I expect that if it works, the results will be the same. Sad

Not that I know of. I don't use FSUIPC to it's full potential, I bought it so I could set up the throttle range, so that when my throttle is fully forward, I get 100, and when fully closed it's 0 (cockpit tooltips) and for a few other extra things it does. Other than that, I don't use FSUIPC for anything else. Undecided

I am not having the same issues with the CS777. The A/T modes work excellent in that.
In the 757, I have to occasionally hit CTL R to get the A/T's to respond.

I have never used CTRL+R in the 757, all I do is click on the EPR button or on one of the TOGA buttons on the throttles. Undecided
