Spoiler activation gone

[roypaglia]

Hi all. Me and a few others have recently been unable to activate spoilers on jets we normally use, 320 Asobo and fbw, 747. They do deploy automatically when landing but not when in flight, (keyboard /), was ok before. A bug after update 5? Any way to fix?

Thanks

I've noticed this, too. Num/ doesn't lower the speed brake anymore on 787 aircraft. I have to go to the Ctrl-4 screen and use the mouse...However, Num/ does raise it...Half success, I guess, better than none...

I haven't flown those aircraft but I had the same problem with the WT CJ4 In short, the last update broke Toggle Spoilers. Extend Spoiler and Retract Spoiler still work so I had to map a separate button on my stick to each function.

I am finding all aircraft spawn with spoilers extended and will not retract at all despite re configuring yolk or using cockpit lever which does move but achieves nothing.

I reported this issue to MS some time ago. Two things;

1. When loading a flight using my "go to" aircraft - B787, the spoiler handle defaults to the "armed" position. It used to be in the off position until an update (2 ago).

2. Whether armed or not, when touching down, spoilers will not come on. I have my yoke configured for a toggle for full spoilers and that works.

This may be related to the bug reported regarding reverse thrust not working (unless you use your mouse to pull them back).
