As much as I support this new sim and can’t wait for it, from what I’ve seen so far the wingflex hasn’t been done properly. 

LOL :rolleyes:

LOL you. Wings are meant to flex. I did say so far so they might come around to it eventually, maybe people in the alpha will know more.

In fact wing flex is a very important at certain levels of weight and speed regarding dynamic forces.

One of the worst screenshots so far. Uninteresting, weird sky.

Simming since 1981 -  [email protected] GHz with 16 GB of RAM and a 1080 with 8 GB VRAM running a 27" @ 2560*1440 - Windows 10 - Warthog HOTAS - MFG pedals - MSFS Standard version with Steam

 

Not very inspired indeed. I wouldn't mind if they ditched Wing Wednesday and instead introduced Take-off Tuesday and Final Friday showing some take-off and landing vids.

How about a Full Flight Friday? 😉

Maybe is just me, but from all screenshot we have seen, I'm starting to think that the A320 doesn't have any wingflex. Wings are always like curved to to sky

I hope it still will be done. It is still in Alpha. There were also pictures of the neo taking of without the Flaps being set. In new pictures you can see the flaps, slats and spoilers. So I guess and hope the WIP stage will take care of that.

I thought the new FS was going to have sloped runways. Is this an early alpha version shot or that option is turned off for this user maybe?

I mean, yeah. But which is worse?

Better to have a few flat airports than a broad implementation where some end up looking like this. Because oh my that's a mountain.

That's extreme lol.

But that problem is common. Do a takeoff roll in Frankfurt-Hahn (default). There are some bumps in the runway that will make you lift-off gauranteed. On numerous other airports as well.

My bet is, there is a problem with implementing sloped runways. Although they have shown us sloped taxiways, we did not see a sloped runway yet (to my knowledge).

I guess they are working on it, but it is not top priority. And before you do an almost game breaking implementation like @suncoastflyer screenie suggests, it's better to leave it out in first place.

Happy with MSFS 🙂
home simming evolved

Regarding the Wing Wed Screenshot, I agree that let's say, it's not the most glamorous screen from the simulator. It could be mistaken for another sim from a past era.

As for sloped runways, I can't wait to see how they proceed to smooth the airport elevations because it seems, there is an elevation smoothing process as far as my eyes can tell.

To my knowledge, the airport surfaces in XP (Rwys, taxiways etc) do not refine the elevation underneath. They are simply draped polygons over the existing elevation. So if you have a rough and low res mesh terrain the airport layout will just be draped over this rough terrain...

The amount of fuel in the wings will play a factor. Also I should add if the aircraft is moving at t/o speed the wings will lift as well. We can't be sure at this point if wind is passing over the wings causing them to curve to the sky.

Yes but it’s a DEFAULT aircraft in an Alpha testing stage. We just need to be a LITTLE realistic here.

Yes but read my initial comment I clearly said they might get around to it. Lets read a LITTLE before jumping to a smart a** reply.
 

The more we point out now the less we will have to worry about later... they did ask the community for feedback and they also are clearly trying to give us better than average DEFAULT planes.
