I’m about 98 percent sure I’ll be buying this weekend. Curious about the pitch sensitivity. If it’s true to the real world aircraft then that’s fine with me. 

A lot of this is caused or fixed by pilot technique.  Anticipating a nose up attitude after liftoff is not uncommon, slight pressure on the yoke cures a lot of evils.

For those not enjoying the over-sensitive pitch controls™ , when selecting the plane in MSFS, in the screen where you enter your custom registration etc, there are sliders at the bottom (wear and tear, etc).   I found that pulling the elevator authority slider down to 50% helps this plane feel a little more stable in the pitch axis.   This method also prevents you having to make changes to your actual controller sensitivies (which would affect all planes), and the elevator authority slider on that page resets after every plane / flight.

found the option but what do you mean elevator authority down to 50%? (my options default to -2 or +2(default is 0)?

Genius! 😀

There's only one thing I don't like - the sound of the speedbrake. I wonder if that's the way it sounds in the real aircraft?

Quick search on the internet and I have downloaded the Honda Jet operatons manual (400 pages).

Good idea.  😊

the hjet is a pure joy to hand fly and land, this will hopefully get better and better what a great job the developer has done with this, my all time time favourite small jet

Only for people who are using a single control profile for all planes. Tho with the clunky profile manager in the sim I wouldn't blame you... personally tho I have a profile for each plane so I can adjust my control sensitivities to deal with issues like over-pitchy response

Pitch sensitivity is not a factor on my Thrustmaster and I haven't adjsuted any plane or global sensitivities.  The plane hand flys like a dream IMO.

Same here have not touched anything, very good controllability

I agree it's a joy to hand fly, the problem is this plane was not made to be hand flown. VNAV, as it is now, is useless. We need WT to start doing their magic on the G3000. Hope the update for the plane that's due tomorrow will help with some things, but it will not fix all.

Marwan said that VNaV was his hardest programming challange.  I tried it today and it worked really well which surprised me.   Make sure to hit the VNAV button on the AP panel.

Lol, of course I pressed VNAV in the AP. I believe the problem is with the default Asobo G3000 the plane uses (as Matt from WT told me), and not with the plane itself. Let's see what comes up tomorrow,

Yes, agreed. I do too.  As you say, the sensitivities need to be different for virtually every plane 👍
