Does anyone else find the autopilot pitches up or down very violently where there are altitude transitions in the SID/STAR? I was just at 6000ft on the TERRIB start into 01L at VTBS and the VNAV pitched down to about -5000ftpm, speed only 225kts and light wind, still approx 25nm from the airport.
Please correct this as it is an obvious bug.
Yes, it happens to me too
"Seems high", do we have video evidence? Please check if you can find cockpit footage from a straight and level flight where we can see both the aircraft gross weight on the System Display bottom, the pitch angle, altitude and airspeed. From this we can work out the lift coefficient and compare it to aerofly.

I also tried changing altitude from FL340 - 360 using the vnav and it shot up at over 3000ft/m which is of course a very unrealistic rate at this altitude, it’s not just the rate, it’s the way it pitches so quickly - please tweak

I would have liked to have this constructor livery on the A350 in aerofly, I've always thought it was a shame that IPACS didn't dare include constructors liveries for their aircraft (Boieng, Airbus etc.)

Yes, it would be great to have the factory liveries of the planes, Ipacks please add this

The trimming seems excessive given the A330’s general 2.2-2.25º AoA during cruise. At 12’000 feet in the A350 (flaps clean, 250 KIAS), I observed a trim up of 5.3.º
Funny how at 290 knots at 12,000 feet the A350 has an attitude of about 3 1/2 degrees. Don’t fly at 12,000 feet at 250 knots.
The indicated air speed will also drop above 30,000 feet (in the sim atmosphere ) in a climb at a constant Mach number as the outside air temperature isn’t dropping any more but the pressure and air density is. The wings will therefore need to bite at a bigger angle at those thin air heights.

Yeah but at cruise it should be between 2 and 2.5° AoA roughly, not 4 or 5. If it’s pointing that far up then the weight distribution needs to be tweaked

No that is not how loading and balance works. Cruise is not at 12,000 feet either.
Does anybody know how to set a waypoint in the mcdu in the a350?? And I would love when aerofly would make Doha an 3d airport

Precisely, but what i said was at cruise is it should have an AoA° between 2 and 2.5-2.7. Any further and it’s either too heavy for the altitude, or something weight-wise is messed up

At cruise (I’ve noticed this from FL360-400) the issue remains persistent.
I'm guessing that the lift coefficient for zero angle of attack just needs to be increased.
Hey I pacs can you fix this because when cruising between 35000ft and 41000 the plane is always pointing up and my trim is off

Dude, you should study aerodynamics) Namely, that the speed of the aircraft is often directed lower than the pitch (roughly speaking)
I think I get what you mean (?) Of note is the extreme height in the picture which means that the high cruise Mach number of M.85 is at a remarkably low indicated airspeed of 271 knots which is proportional to the equivalent airspeed, the wind that the plane feels. The plane has to pitch up more to support its weight as it climbs. It also puts the plane a bit closer to the stall.
With the 707 generation of jet airliners they could have their Mach limited indicated airspeed falling as they climbed and nearing their slowly creeping up stalling indicated airspeed so that near their ‘coffin corner’ altitude they could neither speed up nor slow down!
In this real-life video there is one "retard" followed by "ten, five," but in the game there are two "retards." What's the difference?

i would hazard a guess at the fact the captain idles or 'retards' the thrust levers before the callout so it only does it once. i suppose your aerofly clip involves the throttles still being at power setting upon the callout ergo the sim makes the call twice as a reminder to idle the engines.

I see.
Thank you.
Thank you for your detailed and valuable feedback.
Could you fix this terrain problem, a hill on the right side 07R at VHHH

I tried idling the engine early and still heard the "retard" noise twice.
