Baron 58 Landing / Taxiing in Crosswind

No, the XP11 mod is not freeware, but it does a lot more than just flight dynamics and correct engine modeling.

I'm honestly just looking for correct flight dynamics and engine modeling (outside of fuel mixture).

You should employ ailerons 

Do you know why the recommendation is to always keep the elevator pulled up on soft fields? Does it have something to do w/ hitting depressions in the ground w/ the risk of tipping forward?

Yeah... how can they still have that buggy fuel mix 😕

it's a true bummer

Yes. Front wheel can easily "dig in" which could cause wheel damage/collapse, loss of control, prop strike and worst case scenario flip

This week, I loaded up XP11 again and started flying the default Baron again. Man, what a difference in flight model and performance between XP11's version and MSFS's version (w/ mod). I absolutely love MSFS for pretty much everything except the flight model and aircraft performance. Even crosswind operations are much better modelled in XP11. Anyway, here's hoping that MSFS or a 3rd-party developer one day gets the Baron's flight characteristics and engine performance fully and correctly modelled.
