• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

747-400 - Fighting the Ailerons

Whenever I'm flying the 747, I always find it pretty easy to fly until I want to turn, then I have to use a lot of input to get the plane to turn in the first place, then maintain that input to keep it turning, or it'll level out before I even realize what has happened. I tried using the aileron trim once but it had no effect. The autopilot was either turned off, or was not controlling the bank angle. How do I at least reduce this effect? I've almost stalled several times trying to get the aircraft to stay banked and if available, I almost always have the autopilot control the pitch (and speed as well if there's time to activate auto-throttle) while I control the bank. So far, I have not crashed or over-stressed the aircraft.

The effect so far, is only on the 747. In the 737, A321 (with flight computers on or off), and many other aircraft, the effect is almost non-existent. In the ultralight, the effect is reversed. If I bank that one, then the bank angle increases without me being aware of it.

EDIT: I don't have the 800 installed. I misnamed the thread. The edit corrects this.

Might be a thread more suited to a General simming forum, rather than a developers forum.

Seems to be more of a flying issue, than a development one.

Yes. The 747-800 in the thread title was a mistake. It's actually the default 747-400 that I'm having problems with.
