A320 Rolls left on retard and flare

It’s not. The roll for A320 when landing is actually a bug.

I thought this bug had been fixed but also experienced this again today at Barajas

same over here. Very difficult to land.

All the aircraft are awful to land in this simulator. They all enjoy a good skid once touch down, left to right and a good old fashioned jump up and down like an excited child jumping up and down on a trampoline. I even did everything in my power to correct the joystick in the settings, including calibration.

I just experienced this when landing at Narita. Stable approach, at flare the A320 rolls rapidly, i counter with yoke input, then it rolls violently the other direction. Very hard landing with rapid rudder input required to counter the moving around. It’s as if the surface level winds combined with the ground effect are causing too much force on the aircraft. The winds were not crazy, 12 kts.

Yes near the ground when landing the airbus 320 neo rolls to the right or to left without input from me on the yoke and it cannot be corrected even in soft winds it occurs

At 50ft or 40 ft above the runway, the bus is completely out of control and it is almost impossible to get decent manual landings.
What is the point of making a perfect approach if you make a disastrous touchdown because of that.
Could we please have a fix for that?
Thank you very much

I never really tried the manual landing… since I always do a Cat 3 automatic landing on the A320.
Even after the patch, I still managed to do it just fine in Pyongyang… You can refer to this video on how I did a landing to a dark runway.

I totally agree. It must be a bug of the A320 no matter how well you have it under control, when you are just above the runway it does all this weird stuff even when the winds are calm. Yup impossible to land correctly

The problem is that the pitch control law changes below 50ft.
IRL there’s of course no perceptible change in pitch response.

Unfortunately there’s a big difference in the MSFS version, which makes a smooth flare almost impossible.

Pitch response/authority is way too low/sluggish in normal law.
It should be much more like it is below 50ft.

I know you can use tricks, but you shouldn’t.
Like it is not hard enough to land manually in normal conditions.

But why not? It’s a simulator and everyone has their own different style of flying. A lot of people enjoy flying GA planes, turboprops etc. Some enjoy the landing challenges, others love Bush Flying.

A lot of people love manual flying and landing, I like fully automated flying and landing. It’s something I enjoy doing automated flying and landing whether it is normal conditions or not. It’s just flying style and personal preference. Everyone has their own thing.

I’m not arguing that you’re having issues with landing. I’m pretty sure the latest patch in the sim introduced a lot of bugs, even I’m getting some bugs of my own. But I’m simply offering an alternative that I have no issues when I’m doing a fully automated landing that anyone try if they want to. At least until the developer fixed the issues, that’s all.

Sorry maybe you misunderstood what I meant.
I respect everyone’s style of flying an airplane. I just said you shouldn’t have to use tricks to land the A320 manually.
That’s all. :slight_smile:
I hope this bug will be resolved soon!

Ahh my bad. I thought that since you replied to my post is that you were referring to my auto-landing procedure as a trick. Since I never really land the plane manually, I wasn’t sure what you meant by tricks to land the A320 manually.

But yeah, we can agree that the bug needs to be resolved for the ones having the issues.

The L-1011 would be perfect for you. It could do auto-takeoffs as well. :wink:

The same issue here. Can´t land after a perfect ILS approach. Above 50 ft the plane is running out of control. I´ve been trying to land the aircraft for a month and it is impossible. Very dissapointed and angry!

Technically the A350 can do that… I’m just waiting for a payware to sell a fully functional A350. And I would get that and ditch the 787. That plane has so many bugs right now… But I should thank them. The real life 787 is as buggy as well anyway, so it’s actually more realistic.

fully agree, same issue here…
What flight mode are you all using ?
Legacy ? Could this be the reason ?
I switched to legacy to get rid of the swaying but that mode should probably not to be used with the A32N, I‘ll test this tomorrow.

Legacy is a definite no-go for all default aircraft!
It’s only to make old FSX flight models somewhat compatible-

Exactly. You have saved me. I have changed flight model from Legacy to Modern and all my issues (almost all) have solved. Thank you very much! Hope it makes sense for all that have been desperate for a month!
