The old one had too much gear tilt for the inner main gear. But I do agree it needs to be increased with the newer one, it isn’t really a main focus for the dev team.

The A380 has little to no gear tilt on the current landing gear model which is my main issue with the A380 but other than that an exceptional aircraft.

It definitely needs more gear tilt. It’s barely noticeable for the inboard main gears, and the outer ones should be altered aswell.

Yes the A380 does have more of a tilt

Not so it’s also your AOA and attitude and camera tilt may affect your views

No matter the AOA or the camera angle you can still notice it or atleast I can.

The 380 is perfect including the gear tilt it’s not a 767 u know it I am allowed to take a pic of a SIA380 in a hanger jacked up and gear down [ST will kill me if I take a pic of it] it’s early 1:1 other than the APU intake

In flare mode at 5° you can notice that it have 0 tilt

this is why we are trained at 6+ degree as it’s a heavy thing at low speeds it wants to touch the ground

I have to disagree. Aerofly’s A380 inner gears need more tilt.
A lot of people have requested this since the A380’s remodel. There’s a good reason for that. -

When the A380 lands, the front wheels of inner gear will touch down first because of that tilt. This can be seen clearly in this video
In Aerofly, the A380’s inner gears land flat because there isn’t enough tilt.

I guess the phrase "needs remodel" has a different meaning for you than for us. Remodel would mean, everything that you see visually is incorrect and all wheels, the bogey all need a new 3D model.
What I think you are trying to say is: The negative landing gear tilt angle is not large enough. This does not require any changes to the 3D model however, so remodeling is not required at all.
