      The bigger airliners fly straight with 10 deg pitch up and high throttle when using an autopilot. So it is no wonder the 747 flies like a Cessna. Also the challenges start with a rock drop and the thrust from the engines slowly adjusts to the throttle settings. Even if you fly the 747 without chairs, cargo, fuel and people it wouldn't bounce like the Gummi Bears at that speed.

    I'm a Cessna pilot, but I've been trying my hand at the 747-8 on MFS, with disastrous results. I even spent a few hours with an airline pilot with 14000 hours, who set up the LOC and ILS and still repeatedly crashed it as well. Then, after several attempts, I finally landed it at Frankfurt. The secret, forget the instruments. Land it like a Cessna.

      @vl3005 Před 3 lety +6

      @dsd gds Both of you willingly ignore the fact that he doesn't have rudder pedals, nor did he press any buttons on the keyboard to actually use the rudder. He was used to Xplane11 way of using the yoke on the ground to control the rudder... That's bad sim if you think about it. MSFS doesn't have that, instead he got it to bank right which is actually what would really happen in real life if you tried it. That's a good sim if you think about it. This has nothing to do with MSFS's physics which are a bit quarky right now, I'll admit, but rather Kelsey's lack of knowledge about the keyboard buttons. I believe it's numpad-0 and numpad-Enter, btw. Same buttons will control the tiller on the ground.
      You're just looking for confirmation bias for Xplane11, and to be honest, I haven't played it much, I only had the demo but from the demo - it felt a bit different than MSFS but for the most part it was the same. Then again, I'm no pilot so I can't compare it to real life. Something tells me that you two can't either.
      Although, I do bounce pretty often with the airliners in MSFS for some reason even after pulling to idle and hitting reverse and landing on very low speeds, just like Kelsey did here. I knew there's something wrong there. Glad to know that. Aside from that, MSFS is indeed a good simulator.

    • @Volkaer
      @Volkaer Před 3 lety +1

      Since he's a three striper, the left seat adds a bit confusion to the mix. And FS2020 has a wide interpretation of the cockpit setup. As a real pilot you also usually don't use a mouse to turn stuff in the cockpit and some controls are turned by the guy sitting closer to it. Some of these controls like radio freqs or transponder are also hard to set in FS2020. Some times it's the zoom blocking it, sometimes it's a pixel difference between inner and outer knob.

    As an experienced flight simmer (23+ years) I'd say you were flying with a badly modeled 747 (not the worst though). So, it completely makes sense why you had issues with it. In my opinion, the best add-on model at this time is the 747-400 and -8 by PMDG (for Prepar3D flight sim). I really wish to know your feedback on that add-on.
    Also, you NEED to get a rudder (or a joystick with rudder axis). It's as important as having throttle, for quick reactions.

He's now 37, became a commercial pilot and say it was the best decision he has ever made in his life. So, never say never! 😀

    The default 747 (that is used in the landing challenges) is very hard to get stabilized in the challenges. In a full flight when you actually have time to set it up correctly, it’s much easier. However, there’s also the salty mod that improves it way more

      microsoft is notorious for selling their beta versions to the public and using them as testers , instead of paying people to do the job
      screw that , I expect to get paid if i have to to the beta testing

    "In real life it's easy to see the PAPIs." I had no idea why gamers would want a 4k or 8k screen until I tried playing an ultrarealistic driving game in 2k recently. I couldn't see the road markings or signs, it was terrifying! lol (I've done a lot of driving IRL.) I'm generally happy with less realistic games, but I like 4k for text rendering.
    Lights on the door is probably the game turning the gear lights on the moment the gear starts to deploy, and not calculating shadows perfectly. (Shadows are a big performance hit.) It's better than Kerbal Space Program where the gear lights never turn off and you have weird glints of light peeking through your spaceplane.
    There's problems with landing gear in Kerbal Space Program, but seeing that bounce, maybe it's not so terrible.
