Only loaded 20 passengers, and actually got off the ground at the calculated V speeds.Autopilot engaged... following heading, and VS. Turned to intercept the nav course (I didn't have a SID programmed) and lined it up. Engage LNAV... aircraft does a 360. Entered a Direct-to - as I probably should have. The aircraft now flew about 70 degrees away from the planned course. Then decided that 360's are more fun.Okay. Back to PMDG and Fenix.This baby just isn't ready for prime time - at least on my system it isn't.Thanks for doing the test run for the rest of us. A.

Saturday at 08:47 PM3 days Man, that's too bad about some of the issues. I was looking forward to getting this since I'm an old JustFlight/Wilco Classic 737 fan (Still have the box and CD) from the FS9/FSX days and I miss those old classic 737's. That sound of the trim wheel from that addon were so unique to that aircraft.I'll wait a little and hope it matures a bit. But I'll be be watching and following closely.

If you have one try disabling the FFB portion of your yoke? Just a guess as it’s the only report I saw of the plane doing 360sFor context I’m not a dev.

But thanks for trying to find a solution for me!Another issue I hadn't mentioned was that the framerate dropped significantly as soon as I hit LNAV; I wasn't able to determine if that was the CSS 737 or SU5 doing it's usual thing.There's lots to love about the model - hand flying was excellent. Hopefully future updates will tame it.

Yesterday at 07:41 PM1 day In a nutshell, this updated 737 classic pack, is really worth the price? or is enough just one of the three? Sorry, in another nutshell, is system deep enough? I know, I can spend the five dollars for a test but just wanted know first from you. Edited yesterday at 07:42 PM1 day by alexcolka Alexander Colka

Sorry, in another nutshell, is system deep enough? I know, I can spend the five dollars for a test but just wanted know first from you.Imo it’s not yet worth the $120 price tag. For the most part regarding A-B flying it gets the job done. A lot of the issue I’m finding is people treating it like an NG and expecting the same capabilities. Also the aircraft is a proper cold and dark, EVERYTHING is off including radios, which catches off some people.Theres a few issues still like switches don’t support mouse scroll but knobs do. Opt/max or step climbs isn’t implemented. The FD is a little slow to react. The charts page on the EFB is a little flaky. Performance isn’t great. However all of these issues the dev team is hashing out.You got neat features like some lights and lorry switches will shake into different places while you taxi, the CRT screens have that ever slight shutter effect which is cool. The weather radar is affected by ground returns. There’s a takeoff card that’s populated in the centre pedestal from the EFB to help with inputs on the MCDU. You got IRS drift and auto DME updating.I’ve been running a couple flights with it and having a good time. However I’m desperately waiting for the sound package coming this month. For $5 you can have a some decent fun.Though to be clear there is some work to do but the devs are clearly putting in the work for this past year.

Yes I will test the pack for $ 5. Good to know that performance and sounds will be improved soon. Alexander Colka
8 hours ago8 hr Much appreciate the feedback. I have my eye on this one, and it sounds like it’s getting there, but I’ll probably wait at least until the new sound pack comes out. Too many other great aircraft eating up my time right now.
