March 17, 20188 yr I wonder if one of the very positive consequences of using it's own FDM code is the fact that this FF A320 U reacts to weather, namely variable winds and turbulence, a LOT more believably than default X-Plane aircraft. In my last session I was using RW Weather ( X-Plane, not injected from an external / plugin weather program ) an I faced the kind of situation where my flights usually turn miserable in XP11 - shifting winds + turbulence.... Under such circumstances other aircraft, even the heavier airliners, start to oscillate and dance wildly while the FF A320 progresses, showing the effects of those variable winds and turbulence in pretty much consistent way. Might it be because of the way it was programmed, which allows for a layer that "interprets" this weather factors and filters the rather "hysterical" way default XP aircraft react to it ?

March 17, 20188 yr Author I thought it might be the case, but other Airbuses using their own implementation of the FBW aren't successful... Anyway, nothing that I can't check by reverting to Alternate Law or even Direct Law :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
March 18, 20188 yr Author Well, a few more tests confirmed my fears ... This add-on is really THAT GOOD ! Yesterday I started playing with the non-Normal Laws, and found out that it accurately depicts what is mentioned in the documentation, and you notice the feel of it, and indeed it continues to "interpret" the hysteric weather variations in wind intensity ( direction included in the concept... ) a lot better than default XP aircraft, which really makes me believe it is due to the external FDM calculations it does, and the way it massages the parameters received from XP... Let ASXP happen, and I will be in the Heavens !

March 22, 20188 yr Man I wish I could use this aircraft without having to use the mouse wheel (handicap means fine finger movement impossible. Pushing buttons and holding down is fine.) Anyone suggest an alternative method (scripts?) of replicating mouse wheel interaction, I would be eternally grateful. I have exactly the same issue with the FSLabs A320. - Dean P3Dv4 & XP11 space
