Does anyone else notice that the default A321 flies like crap? it pitches crazy when you turn off the A/P or even just manuervering the plane in general. Maybe I am doing something wrong.
That could be the "fly-by-wire" stuff I had problems with whereby it pitches automatically. Horrible for landing because of the angle you have to point the nose down at.
Do you guys ever take a look at the buttons in the cockpit ? Above your head, you will find the buttons to activate/deactivate the fly-by-wire computers. Deactivate everything and this plane will fly like any other.
The fly by wire works wonderfully when you fly by the numbers and set up the approach like you're supposed to.. nail proper airspeeds.. use flaps realistically..
If you try to "instant airline captain" the Airbus to the runway.. well.. you can't 8-)
