Your first throw › Throttle up, then pick it back up passed
As a new pilot, I want to throw the plane by opening the throttle, like at the field, so that launching in the sim feels like the real thing.
The test behind the tutorial Your first throw: every step it takes, what it checks and what it saw.
Start
From the setup of The simulator.
Everything it starts with
Given the throttle is 0 % And the pitch stick is centred And the roll stick is centred And the wings are level And the flight controller is missing And the flight mode is MANUAL And the rates are high And differential thrust is on And the view is line of sight And auto-zoom is on And the help screen is hidden And the sim is running And the battery is at least 99 % And the game is free flight And the game clock is off And the plane is in hand

- Every arranged state read back as arranged (16)
1 When the throttle is 80 %
When the throttle is 80 % Then the plane is flying
Expected behaviour: Throttle up throws the plane.

- the plane is flying · Throttle up throws the plane
2 When the throttle is 0 %
When the throttle is 0 % Then the throttle is 0 %

- the throttle is 0 % · the story
3 When the pilot resets the plane
When the pilot resets the plane Then the plane is in hand
Expected behaviour: Reset picks the plane back up.

- the plane is in hand · Reset picks the plane back up
