January 15, 200818 yr I can fly the Bombadier CRJ's and Boeing 737's with no real problems, but the Airbus's are almost unflyable.Is this me or are the Airbus flight models to blame?
January 15, 200818 yr While the Airbus flight model is only about as realistic as the other aircraft flight models in FS - i.e. designed for the beginner flight simmer - it's a perfectly good, workable flight model.There are many pecularities which are Airbus specific with Microsoft's version of FlyByWire.There are many threads on flying the FSX Airbus on the forum - but basically - it is your flying habits, not the model.
January 15, 200818 yr Just cause my passengers tremble in fear when ever I take the controls is no reason to harp on my flying ability!! :-)I'll take another whack at it this week... It's just that it sure seemed to be aircraft related to me..I mean the CRJ and Boing were controllable as expected while the Airbus would have moments of complete hysteria.....
January 15, 200818 yr Search for a thread "FSX default A321 problem" which has a lot of information / tips on flying the Airbus.
January 15, 200818 yr The default Airbus can be flown quite nicely. You just have to understand it is going to behave differently than the 737. That takes flying time to fully grasp.As was said I would suggest searching for the old threads on the default A321 because everything is discussed in them, including the trick that you should not do, and that is fly with part of the FBW computer disabled.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2585 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2gb Corsair XMS 3-3-3-8 (1T), WD 150 gig 10000rpm Raptor, WD 250gig 7200rpm SATA2, Seagate 120gb 5400 rpm external HD, CoolerMaster Praetorian Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
January 15, 200818 yr Yeah I have same problem...Like the trim, I don't think there is trim, with the FBW system...or the computer trims it out automatically.The airbus pilots that operate from our airport always take the longest to get going...it's all that button pushing lol! | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
January 15, 200818 yr Author The autopilot doesn't work for me. It seems to stop working every so often. Weird! But hey that's FSX (sp1).
