Weird take-off issue

Featured Replies

So I'm having (or had) this problem where as I am taking off, at about 50 ft or so, the plane suddenly banks sharp left, and I have to turn the yoke to the right to make it not bank further. This happend twice in a row, but only one time at each take-off, and did not occur later on in the flights. The yoke is not "Locked" or stuck in the left position, but only a little "bump", like a strong gust from the right. A friend of mine had the exact same problem an hour before on his computer. I do not know if this have been discussed before, but i searched the forum, but could not find anything. Does anyone know what might do this? Active sky maybe?

Just a guess but realism setting maybe something to look at.Don't have this happening on my end.

...like a strong gust from the right...
You might have answered your own question right there :)

Yeah, but it doesn't feel like a gust, more like someone is lifting the right wing very fast up and letting go again.. But it might be a gust, I don't know :)

Had the takeoff problem happen once. (Had the wrong SID in FMC) When i engaged A/P the plane did a hard bank left, but A/P did not engage.Twice on landing, HGS on, A/P and A/T off at approx 50 feet, hard banks to the left. FMC didn't have any faulty information that I can recall. Perfect automation behavior and no hand flying issues prior.Not saying there is a problem after 6 or 7 months and three occurences. Just can't track it down. Thankfully because the hard banks are a very rare occurence.

There's surface wind and there is wind aloft; and then there is wind in MSFS. All three are different. I've seen wx add-ons that allow you to inhibit winds below 50-ft, you got something like that?Use FSUIPC wind smoothing in their registered version, you get to have a handle on surface winds too.

Sounds like active sky wake turbulence to me. Best to leave it switched off.Regards
