ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: The INI A330 lineup which is good and well featured has some modeling issue when it comes to the wings. Currently Flaps 1+F has insufficient especially on the trailing edge. Also the animation speed when it comes to retraction and extension when both engines are powered is quite slow compared to real life.

A report has been lodge on ini’s official forum since December 2024. But no indication if it has been logged as of yet. So putting it here so that devs in Asobo can have a look if any latest build some of the fixes incorporated.

link to the forum includes real life photos of flap positioning and animation speed:

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue: Entire A330 lineup

REPRODUCTION STEPS

  1. Launch MSFS 2024
  2. Spawn in any A330
  3. Select Flaps 1+F and compare to real life image
  4. Fly the plane and do some flap changes and calculate the time the flap takes and compare

Hi, I want to make this report short and simple. So as the title says, the A330 Flaps 1+F does not look accurate to how the Flaps are in real life. In real life the flaps get extended down a bit more. Im sure if you guys look up a picture you’ll see what Im talking about. But the other flap settings all look good besides Flaps 1+F.

Also another short thing, please fix the takeoff physics of this plane. In real life, the A330 needs a high pitch in order to even rotate but this plane feels like it barely needs much. The A330 in real life has pretty ■■■■ climb performance thats why you need a high pitch. And on climb out, the A330 maintains about a 15 degree pitch until climb thrust (this is stated by real world A330 Pilots). I hope you guys fix these issues to the A330 which will make the flying experience so much better & realistic. Thank you.
