October 27, 20196 yr Weird indeed since I've never seen an aircraft spin, or spun an aircraft myself, in an aerodynamically impossible attitude like in the video. That's the kind of unrealistic spin attitude you see in many FSX/P3D add-ons. Edited October 27, 20196 yr by FDEdev

That's the kind of unrealistic spin attitude you see in many FSX/P3D add-ons. Care to point out the differences in attitude during the spin here? Genuinely curious because they look pretty similar to me (comparing to the insider video). Different aircraft will spin differently too of course. P3Dv4 + XP11 MFS

Btw, that's a very good video since it's one of the few videos where you can see the horizon Notice that the roll attitude is almost level, just a few degrees 'in spin' bank angle due to the outboard, faster rotating wing (just a basic description). In the MSFS video the stable spin attitude has the 172 banking 40° to the outside of the spin, which is simply impossible in a conventional stable spin. https://files.fm/u/s4j4cqx5#/view/msfs_spin_att.jpg Edited October 27, 20196 yr by FDEdev

Same video at approx 17 seconds mark: 45 degrees. I'm also confused.

If the bank was corrected it wouldn't be too bad at all then. Hopefully it's just 'alpha things' what we're seeing right now. P3Dv4 + XP11 MFS
