Only one unrealistic thing about the PMDG 737NGX.....

Featured Replies

Hello forums,As you all must know, there is something with the 737NGX that is not like the real aircraft that i have noticed. I do not know about everyone else but have everyone else noticed how far the control column in the VC roll to the left and right and how it does not roll fully 90 degrees like the real aircraft as shown here

. The fact that the yoke in the NGX does not roll fully like the in the video obviously mean externally the spoilerons does not rise as high as the real airplane. For some reason i cannot put up the pictures i took but i sent them via support ticket but still no reply. But i would like everyone to see this video here and skip to 1:10 and tell me if the spoilerons in your 737NGX go up like that because mines rises at least an inch or two (the inner spoileron that is).http://www.flightlevel350.com/Aircraft_Boeing_737-800-Airline_GOL_Linhas_Aereas_Aviation_Video-16290.html I have found that because of this, hand flying the NGX feels more sensitive than the PMDG 744. I dont know if this is just my NGX or everyone because i need this fixed if it is my download or patched because this is by far the only unrealistic part of the NGX. other than that i love it.

har har Just check the SYS page on the lower DU, and you'll see that the ailerons/spoilers move with full range of motion. In regards to the control wheel, I can't check it right now... but I don't see that as being an issue.

Did you guys even compare how far upwards the spoilerons move up in the video and your own PMDG 737 NGX. Maybe if your guys compare them you all will see what i am talking about. The spoilerons in the NGX does not go up as high as the real plane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you refer my statement to your last sentence in your original post?

The're a little different. The NGX are NGs, those on that website are older. The spoilerons for the NGs uses 4 spoilers not two like the older 737s in that site. :(

I refereed it to you and everyone else.

That 737-800 in the video must be the SFP version since it's operating in SDU. The SFP's spoilers have a higher angle of deflection, and must surely affect flight spoilers as well. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...)

That is indeed a SFP version not a regular NG

I went into FSX and experimented to see if the spoilerons go up higher. It is still the same even thought the ground spoiler go up higher.

Well then.
