FSiPanel and Fenix A320 - very long setup time

I have been using FSiPanel with PMDG737-700 for a while for training scenarios and approaches with great satisfaction and with minimal delay for setting up the aircraft. For example preparing an approach and clicking the button "MOVE AC" the setup of the 737 will only take a few minutes.

Recently I purchase the Fenix A320.
Setting up the A320 and doing the same after clicking the MOVE button it takes forever (10 min +)
But finally the A320 becomes ready with the prompt to press the brakes for 3 seconds.

Is it normal or is there a problem with the Fenix A320 (which was updated with the latest version) ?

Same here- longtime Fenix user and have used FSiPanel trouble free. But now am also getting an error about a scrolling acceleration error which I'm not sure about- never had this before...(and scrolling accelleration is definitely off in my Fenix EFB- Sim Settings>Controls) In my case the software eventually (c 10 mins) gives the 'press both brake pedals' message though I am still on the runway and haven't been repositioned...

Hi, do you use WinWing FCU ?

If you wait long time on ground for FSiPanel to bring the aircraft in the air, 2 possible reasons:
  • FCU Altitude increment set to 1000 instead of 100ft and WinWing in use
  • Your Thrust levers are not detected in CLB, they really need to be exactly on CLB detent for the approach phase to start
Please let me know,
