  1. Here is a good example of this. At 1:12:00 of this video, while on approach, look at the way the plane moves side to side along the yaw axis. I get that the crosswind is very high, but why is it swaying side to side like this? Obviously, landing in these conditions won't be easy and even a big plane will move around, but I have seen this happen even in 8 KT winds. It looks kind of cartoonish. In an aircraft with a yaw damper, there should not be this kind of constant yawing as if the plane is experiencing a Dutch roll - and indeed, this does not happen in any other airliner in the sim, even much lighter ones, and even in 30+ KT crosswind. Imagine how uncomfortable it would be for the passengers if the real plane behaved like this.
  2. I've comfirmed that this works with the Fenix A320 as well. This needs to be implemented in the A350 too.
  3. @Eddie - from what I gather, this should be possible on any Airbus aircraft. If you select any non-precision approach, like an RNAV for example, you should be able to tune the ILS in the NAVAIDS page and intercept it even if you have not actually selected the ILS approach. However, this is not possible on the iniBuilds A350. The PFD will be in FLS mode instead of ILS if you select the LS button, which is not right. Could this be looked at by the team?
  4. So I have a charted visual which I have created and placed into the nav database for the aircraft. It's the FMS Bridge Visual for 28R at KSFO. I want to select this approach while also tuning the ILS in the NAVAID page and intercept the localizer as I fly towards the final waypoint of the approach. This can be done in the iFly 737 MAX. Can it be done in the A350? I tried it, but I never received the ILS signal. Upon pressing the LS button, the PFD showed 'FLS' even though I have correctly entered the ILS info on the NAVAID page. Is this not possible on the A350 or Airbus in general? Or am I doing something wrong?
  5. The problem isn't that the plane is sensitive to pitch and roll inputs. That's perfectly fine as it simulates the real aircraft. The problem is how sensitive it is to weather. It gets pushed around like a Cessna in just 8 KT wind. I have to try it in MSFS 2020, because from what I've seen from others, this may not be an issue in 2020.
  6. To me it feels like the plane moves left and right along the yaw axis, almost as if it is exhibiting a "Dutch roll" due to an ineffective yaw damper. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_roll I think improvements in yaw damper and yaw oscillations were in the patch notes in recent updates, but they appear to have done nothing, as the issue remains.
  7. It feels like the yaw damper isn't working as intended and the plane is experiencing a "Dutch roll." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_roll
  8. Yes. Made no difference. The yaw effect isn't drastic, but it still feels weird. Only happens in live weather (in the clear sky preset, this doesn't happen at all.) It looks like this is the intended behavior of the aircraft in the sim, but I find it hard to believe that this is the way the actual A350 behaves.
  9. I know the real life aircraft is sensitive to the deflection of the control surface in both pitch and roll, and the plane feels great in that regard in calm conditions. But is it supposed to be this sensitive to weather? Any time there is any sort of wind (even when it is below 10 knots) the plane will start to randomly yaw left/right even when the direction of the wind remains constant. It's a very strange feeling that i've not experienced in any other aircraft, and I find it difficult to believe an aircraft this heavy would be this sensitive to <10 knot wind. I am using the WinWing Ursa Minor Airbus joystick and the sensitivity settings are all at default. The Z-axis (rudder) on the joystick is locked and I did not even bind it in the sim as I have rudder pedals. This is in MSFS 2024.
