Is your bank angle limiter set to allow 30 degree turns? (This is the outer ring on the MCP altitude knob). From the artificial horizon, it looks as if it might be set to less than this, which might lead to wider turns than the FMC assumes.

Yes, that's why I specifically show it in the video two times.  It's not commanding 30 degrees even though that is what is set on the MCP.

What a strange remark! You said I “overreacted”, when all I actually did was “react”. So whatever you may have thought you were doing, in fact your criticism of me is a defence of PMDG.
 

Anyway, not a productive line of discussion. Or enjoyable. 

See the post below why your post was an overreaction.

Oh sorry, the scene panned too quickly for me to see that.

Found this on PMDG’s forum, posted by someone at PMDG:

“The aircraft runs out of Hydraulic fluid over time - you have to refill it on occasion! I am not an expert (im the sound guy) but when I had issues with bank angle, be it HDG or LNAV, this was my cause!

To check - goto the FMC > PMDG SETUP > AIRCRAFT > FAILURES. 

And see if you have any active failures .....”

Also, apparently LNAV ignores the bank angle limiter anyway so it couldn’t be that:

Tell this to the real world pilots who have to enter the data manually.

LOL! I love how people, constantly are requirering features and functions in addons, which - in their view - "are essential" and "adds to the realism", but which isn't available in the real aircraft.

Just don't understand why you get so worked up by the fact that some of us appreciate simbrief integration... For me it's not essential and certainly not a huge deal. I can live quite fine with the way the 737 is at the moment... Also - I know how to enter a flight plan manually. LOL!

I'm a little bewildered, that so many people complain (or maybe it's the same, but are constantly making new threads?) about features which are missing and that PMDG has "fallen behind" and that they're lazy, and doesn't listen to their customers for not including things which they deem is "necessary", when such features in reality isn't because PMDG doesn't want to include them - but simply doesn't have the ability to do it! Most of what is being complained about, is simply sim limitations in MSFS! Currently it isn't possible to include SimBrief integration for instance, yet it's constantly being brought up, as a point of cristisism towards PMDG, with angry adjectives being thrown along with it...

I don't get worked up over that some people appreciate SimBrief integration!!! Please don't infer something or some meaning, which I didn't write. I really like the idea. Indeed. But I do get worked up over, that some people constantly bring this up as a point of cristisism towards PMDG and use it - unfairly, IMO - to leverage their opinion that PMDG is lazy, has fallen behind of demand etc, when it's actually NOT POSSIBLE to implement these functions into their addon. It's a sim limiation. Period. Stop complaining to PMDG about it. If you really like to write angry posts about this, write emails to Asobo instead...

i must be  missing  some  thing  you can import  flight  plans  from  simbrief  to the  737  or  are  you  referring  to some  thing  else

I can relate to that. It's a GREAT aircraft IMO and for me the lack of a simbrief integration is a very minor point that doesn't detract from the overall experience. Especially with the simbrief downloader the process of loading the flightplan into the aircraft is limited to 1. generate flight plan in simbrief 2. load flightplan from FMC. 

EDIT: I also load the flightplan into MSFS whilst setting up the flight, as I use the default ATC.

I think me and others pointed out prior to release that the PMDG does not have the option to directly load the simbrief aircraft from the internet. As that apparently is a limitation of all aircraft coded in WASM. As I mentioned in the above post effectively it doesn't cause any limitations, especially when using the simbrief downloader. 

Hi folks

 

Wonder if anyone can help please. Not sure if I am doing anything wrong but am able to import my flight plan etc and do all I need to do to set it up. What I am not sure of though is that when I look at the legs of my flight plan there is no speed/altitude data.

I do have simbrief set to Auto for altitude and also 'plan setclimbs' ticked. But when I import there is no speed/height data?

Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thank you

All the very best

Sounds like your FMC perf init page isn't filled out and executed.  I haven't yet used simbrief to import a flight plan so I don't know if it also does perf data, but even if it does, that's a separate "request" in the FMC.  The perf data doesn't load with the route.
