Woah woah woah. It adds some more ECAM screens and fixes the lighting. This thing is maybe 1.25% the simulated fidelity and accuracy of the FSLABs bus, lol.

Yeah, it's a long, long way from the FSLabs. But it's very flyable and, on a good day, you could even say it flies pretty realistically. I think we could be waiting years for FSL to bring their A320 into MSFS and this is a word not allowed good way to pass the time.

Watch the Captain Canada youtube video from yesterday with touchdown at PDX.

Work the Sidestick - and let it do its work - don't be in a hurry to see the result - it's many tons of metal - and it takes time for it to react to your inputs

IMHO, one big problem right now in the flight model are the MOIs for pitch, roll and yaw. They're at least twice what the should be. Makes this thing wallow like a garbage skow, pitch around and react sluggishly to input.

Tried and setup a different controller. Same elevator behavior for me on takeoff. I'll be testing landing in a few.

What an incredible project that has hurled FSL and PMDG thoroughly in to the long grass where, quite frankly, they belong.

A fine example of why one shouldn't always believe what one reads on the internet. Off to the "Ignore User" pool you go.

Hmm Im sorry, @Will Fly For Cheese , but I'm not convinced. My other (GA/props) airplanes fly well with my setup, but the airbus (and the 787 and the 748) all get wonky in the flare. They either dont want to flare (like you have to full forward on the stick to get her towards the ground, even at near stall speeds), or the left or the right wing just banks uncommanded (specific to the a320 i believe).

Report it to Zendesk, the more people reporting, the more quickly it will be fixed.

Here's my take on the wing drop - The banking left or right on the flare might be a slightly too sensitive stall reaction coupled with an instinctive action to pull throttles during the initial flare. Hold your throttle position and resist pulling the throttles back when commencing the flare until the Retard callout. If you pull back on the throttles a little too early (which is an instinctive tendency because it applies to most aircraft) and airspeed bleeds off while you are still flaring 20ft above the rwy, airspeed quickly erodes below 120knots and a wing will drop. I have not had this problem once since following this principle, with smooth landings to boot.

Oh believe me, I have! I always report problems to Zendesk. 

Actually Greg, this is the exact way one should manually land a Bus under normal conditions.
The Retard-Retard callout is the precise signal for pulling the throttles back.

Take-off with the MSFS Airbus is a bit quirky.
My advice is to avoid following the FMA instruction to set the thrust levers into the climb detent (white flashing LVR CLB) until commanded speed by the FMGS is V2 + 20.
Then reduce thrust and monitor the aircraft’s nose being lowered accordingly while the speed gently climbs.

Anyone else getting stutters from 'Limited by CoherentGTDraw' when using a flight plan ? I get constant FPS but its causing endless micro-stutters. Looking away from the screens and all is constant green.

I sincerely don't know how much we can rely on the Devs "limitations".
I very often see Limited by main thread when my CPU is running at 30% and 50°C.

We would always be limited by something. i am mostly limited by GPU. Its when the limited causing red lines. These are stutters.

Limited, yet not fully utilized...

They have done quite a bit actually.  This video demonstrated the state of the A 320 after the 0.2 version, before MS/Asobo broke some of it. Not sure what 0.3 has added.

I can confirm that this is happening instantaneous. It's not like I pull the power too early, traditionally I use 20 feet in non heavy type airliners. This is happening as you initiate the flare. In fact, realistically, speed should not erode that fast. Text book flare should have you down no more than REF minus 5. For me, as soon as I start to round out, right wing suddenly drops.
