Really puzzling 🤔

Well, ToLiss just released their A346 summer update, so that gives me an excuse to crank up XP and poke at it some more!

Sounds like another plugin messing with nose wheel steering or a lack of hydraulic power.

Might it be something like a plugin that manipulates the steering PIN for pushback, leaving ir in place?

@UrgentSiesta should also be sure to apply the same steering tiller EFB option and save ir in every variante of the 737, because saving for the 600 Will not automatically apply it to the other variants...

Ouch! and if you really want to mess things up there is a cargo mod for the LU 737 available. Not been down that torturous road yet, LU it seems just rolls along - amazing, now one day just one day I will get a 737 to start in my sim - sigh operator error alas!

The Cargo Conversion is a bust - of Asian Origins - requires a password to unlock files, They then cannot display correctly suspect it is a Windows only effort not for Linux - the secret password thing is also suspect and best avoided.

Where from? Hmmm, beware of those "tempting" downloads....

No, it's an operator skill or visual acuity issue and not due to any operating system, as the password is clearly stated on the download page. With it, the archive unzips just fine.

Whether it's clever by the author to distribute it as a complete aircraft instead of an add-on to the main package is another question.

V2.S1.50 is now available, which fixes some prominent bugs.

(Read the readme.)

There is also an app to keep it and Zibo's 737 up to date.

I wonder if the update is available ORBX direct.

The answer to my above is yes.

I did a fresh install and a few test flights.

It certainly looks very nice, but despite normal takeoff flap and trim settings for me the LevelUp 737s have a very strange behavior on takeoff - instead of rotation with the nose lifting skyward first, on my flights the entire plane just starts lifting - levitating - in a way that the default 737 in XP and the PMDG 737 in that other sim just don’t?

I have issues with the LU737/800 V2. On descent there is no purple VNAV deviation indicator next to the altitude markers. The indicator shows with the 600/700/900 models, as well as with the Zibo737/800. I have tried multiple flights in different locations with different setups but the error persists. Anyone else?

The LU test team includes several real world 737NG drivers and none have noticed any oddities on takeoff.

The display code between variants is 100% identical, so it can only be down to some operator specific setting in the EFB.

From Discord:

Looks like the NPS option is off, so it’s not exactly a bug. To enable NPS, go into the EFB’s displays options and I believe under Systems (or Displays if it’s not in Systems), there should be an option called “NPS” that can be turned on and off.

I had never had to set this setting before in the EFB for the other models, so I wasnt really looking for it. Saw NPS and wondered what it did. Know i know. Problem solved, thanks for your assistance!

No problem!

I am really having big issues handflying this plane. I installed the last update but something is wrong with the trim. During take offs, I have to pull the yoke fully back at Vr to get it in the air and pull like crazy. It is extremely nose-heavy. That can be solved by triming it up more than according to what the CG says.

But then during approaches, as soon as I disconnect the autopilot, it doesn’t seem to be trimed correctly. And triming it up or down by only one notch makes it react very nervously, so that a balanced approach is extremely challenging and feels unnatural.

I don’t have that at all with the ZIBO.
