I agree that since the first release a few years ago, the performance gain has been quite remarkable. They optimized a lot of things! I do also have very good fps in 95% of the cases.

Never had any such issue. Except with another sim 😅

Yeah but turbulences is a different topic, so who knows 🤷‍♂️🙂

This makes sense of course. Perhaps it is something that could be something that could be implemented later into the new default-autogen (if any is planned for the next-gen scenery). Or perhaps Laminar themselves could be interested in your work 🙂

@MrBitstFlyer Oh too bad. I was very excited about what you announced so far. But I perfectly understand. Perhaps there is a way to work with X-turb‘s author and implement in future your ground-effects generated by the buildings? I was very curious about that aspect, since it can be very important when flying irl too (and also forests).

The LU

Thanks, will try. But on the Zibo I don’t have that issue…

I don‘t know. I would simply check and compare with vatsim-radar. If it still works good 🙂

And don’t forget Airfoillabs making the Max (not out yet)

Yeah I think the previous versions were quite famous for having an oversensitive trim…

Yeah, try perhaps also to use the maintenance toolkit to be sure it is updated. Jochen suggested me to download it again and use that tool.

That's interesting because I had an exchange with Jochen, the guy who helped improving the FM. And after reinstalling the aircraft it looks liek I may have had an older version (still don't know why that happened). After a new installation, the flight behaviour and trim during approach were really comparable to the ZIBO and not near as bad as I stated before (my bad)

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.

Did you have to pay 500$ ? The CL650 is probably the most amazing plane ever made for any sim but in my opinion the FF777 could hold that title for airliners, as soon as the few last functions have been implemented.
