Autothrottle

Same here. I noticed the AT will keep the speed about 10kt less than it indicated.

@Floydrix I seem to recall we removed the autothrottle control assignments from the Vulcan pre-release so that they couldn't accidentally be triggered and cause unexpected issues. The real Vulcans weren't fitted with an autothrottle, and that's the configuration that we originally released our Vulcan in, so that never cropped up as a potential issue.
Now that we have added the pseudo autothrottle logic via the EFB options, these control assignments may be something we can add back in. I'll raise this on our internal bug tracker and we'll see what can be done for the next Vulcan update.

Apologies for the confusion there. I think we did intend to add those control assignments so the manual was updated accordingly, but they must have slipped through the net.
We'll make sure that those control assignments get added, or the manual gets updated, in the next Vulcan update.

It would be great to be able to assign this function to a specific key. I was just about to write a question about this topic. I managed to assign buttons on the throttle of my joystick to control the throttle position (speed..) in autothrottle mode via the commands: Increase Autopilot Reference Airspeed
/Shift + Ctrl + Insert and Decrease Autopilot Reference Airspeed
/Shift + Ctrl + Delete. So it would be great to be able to turn the autothrottle function on and off, ideally via one button (on/off positions) Best regards and thanks for the great work
