ISSUE DESCRIPTION

The Asobo b737 MAX aircraft has high ground and air resistance, a lot of power is needed to move from place, the same applies to take-off, it slowly gains speed despite full power, on landing, to maintain speed, the engines have to work at 80% of power, this is not normal.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

Always

REPRODUCTION STEPS

  1. attempt to move

  2. take-off attempt

  3. landing attempt

YOUR SETTINGS

PC, ms-store

Ryzen 7 5800x3d, RTX 4070Ti, 32GB Ram

2

any chance you have the auto brakes on for landing and not turn them off for further taxi? I just flew the plane and it seemed alright

3

Before takeoff I have it set to RTO. After takeoff I set it to OFF and before landing I set it to 3.

I didn’t have this problem in Su3

4

I confirm. It needs about 80-90% N1 on final with flaps 30-40 to keep the target speed.

I have done additional testing and yes, the plane does feel sluggish. At first I suspected it to be a thrust problem, however, performance at higher climb, cruise and fuel consumption do not seem to be affected.

Biggest culprit at this point is drag from flaps/slats as takeoff, initial climb and approach/landing is where I noticed that the plane requires a lot more thrust, especially noticeable with the takeoff run taking much longer to get the plane to Vrefs
