Avionics switch is randomly being turned off

Post by Pearskin »

Hello A2A .... I am having a serious problem in that the Avionics switch is being randomly turned off while I am flying using a flight plan. This causes me to lose control of the plane if I am in auto pilot mode. I can regain control by turning the avionics switch back on and resetting the autopilot however, I consider this a serious bug because it happens frequently. I am unable to pinpoint the cause of this error but here are some of my observations:
1) It does not happen with any of my other airplanes.
2) I can't determine if this is an A2A problem or a FSUIPC problem.
3) I can't predict when it will happen.
4) None of the other switches are affected only the Avionics switch.
5) The switch will go on/off frequently.
6) Resetting the avionics switch does NOT cure the problem.
7) Reloading Remote flight Server does not cure the problem.

I am using the following software:
1) P3D v3 (Latest Version)
2) Remote Flight Server with FSUIPC (latest version)
3) A2A Cessna C172 Trainer (latest version and Up-to-date)
4) Windows 7 (64 bit OS)
5) Saitek Proflight Equipment (all drivers are up-to date)

Thank You for your help if possible

It sounds like you have some control issue switching that switch going on. No one else has reported any such issue so I'd assume a stray mapping somewhere on your system.

thanks,

Perhaps one of the RemoteFlight apps is the culprit Pearskin? Which ones are you using with the 172?

Thanks,
Nick
