This also affects the tilt angle of engines 1 and 4:

wouldn’t this depend on weight of fuel in the wings? Configuration, AoA, speed etc?


Absolutely! But this can be quantified by comparing the wing flex to irl footage, especially external footage from the front during landing. It is far too excessive.

you’d have to know the landing weight of the real aircraft for each reference photo/video to accurately compare to the sim

Yea noticed the craziness that’s the 747 wing flex the other day pulling a rather aggressive pull up I had the wings flex up towards the same height as the top of the vertical stabalizer definitely is excessive and overdone

True, but there is also no real footage showcasing a wing-flex similar to the MSFS 747
