Thanks. You should be able to replicate loading the attached weather preset file before starting at a due west facing parking spot. If not, then it’s something on my end, but this causes a nose over every time for me. WindTest.WPR (2.5 KB)
It appears to be a tailwind of a certain threshold at about 20 knots that causes it (or 40 if using the Weather Menu, since the actual value is half of what is shown in the wx menu) . It’s not too common to get a Live Weather tailwind at the parking spot that high, so not a big deal I guess. It would save a little hassle if there’s a flag or setting somewhere so that the airplane starts at a resting/fixed position rather than immediately put into motion by the wind as I’m not seeing this behavior in other taildraggers like the Cap10.
I had that flip over bug several times last Saturday, when spawning in a parking space. Same airfield each time, I think it has more to do with the weather system. In any event, changing airfields solved it. I would say very rare.
I see in the AVSIM forums there was a list of what to expect for the next patch, a week ago. Also, mentions of a few new things since then. Could we get an updated list here? Hoping we get the patch soon, but next week is good for me. I have a bunch of family-time things planned for this weekend, really cuts into my simming, grrr. I feel the need, the need to go moderately fast in a warbird and enjoy the scenery.

Yes, however, it should be noted that, due to the restrictions placed upon us by MS/Asobo, the variant that you get from us is NOT the same as the one on the marketplace…
Here’s hoping that the price is not ridiculous, as AUS/NZ pay TOO much with the dollar always not getting updated in FS Market. It’s been high at times(80c US) yet never updated to the Market.
Can you explain this please, I should not have to go off and join a website just to get info. That’s why this forum is so useful but only if the 3rd party dev’s actually use it.
MS doesn’t allow any weapons. We are, on the version that is being sold outside of the MS marketplace, adding those. We may, at some point in the future, make them operational. We are looking at this closely.
good to see that this great airplane will have a little polish applied on it. it push me to recommend it again to my friends.
i just wondering : how will be the update available ?
will customers receive an email with a link to the new download ?
