i just download the airbus A319 by claus vendelboe, it look great, beautiful texture. but i have a problem with the engine. no matter how speed do i take off, i tried 80% and 70%, after a few moments i find myself going full speed, and neither the vc or number pad working to lower the speed. i didnt touch anything else in the vc but flap button and gear button.is it a bug or else.

I flew KCLE to KIAD without any problems. I was certain I armed the spoilers but they failed to deploy on landing. I'll need another test to check but certainly no problems with the engines.

Autopilot auto-throttle on by chance? I know some aircraft have an Takeoff/go-around mode that can take over the aircraft throttles.

that's what i thought.i search the vc and cant find any switch to turn off auto-thruttle. the AP is off and stays off as i go up, but a series of lights go on automaticaly:FD-ARPT-ATHR. and i can see the thruttle lever going up by itself, there's a ghost in my plane.my theory is, i probably need some programming before leaving, but i'm way over my head. but i will search again see if i can find the right button. here's an image in the vc when it all light up:http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/1788/200912412129140.png

The meaning of those lights are as follows, FD- Flight Director, Aprt- Airport (usually a display setting for the map), ATHR- Autothrottle
And you said it came on automatically? That's strange. All I can suggest is clicking the button for the speed. you should be able to click on the center of the knob for the speed setting (knob on the left under SPD display on the autopilot panel) and it should turn off anything controlling the plane.
I hope that made sense :-/

unfortunatly, it didn't make the job.auto thruttle automatically kick in after a few moments.well, the way i see it, if i can't understand how it works, this airplane is not for me. thanks anyway.
