Watching so many of these preview videos, but also watching flight-sim videos for years now, the #1 thing I see people screw up is rotating way too late in GA aircraft. If your Vx is 62 knots in a 172, you shouldn't be holding it on the ground until 60 knots and then wondering why it's going all squirrelly on you. Was just watching a guy flying the Baron in MSFS and he didn't even rotate until 105 knots. That's Vy in that plane, with Vx only being 92 knots. He keeps the nose down and gets to 125 knots just 100 feet off the ground. Then he's wondering why the plane isn't climbing fast enough.

Shorter me: Pull the stick back, use your rudder, and climb at a proper speed and things will go a lot smoother.

😁. I agree Bonchie but I think it's an over correction after the first time they yank it off the runway at about 20 degree pitch up and stall out

Hi looking forward to getting the New MSFS having been out of simming for years! Special interest, the flight dynamics and the dynamics of the Air mass we fly in ! VR will give you the published take off data, but on strong wind days maybe add a few kts which will give you more control authority and an extra margin over the stall
