New 747-8i United After Merger Model wont take off

Postby Carbneb » Wed Sep 19, 2012 2:48 pm

Hi all,

I am having a problem I haven't encountered before; the new 747-8i United model won't take off. Even at 200mph with no weight it wont rotate. I even took it to Edwards AFB and ran it long off the end of the runway and it wont rotate. Anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?

I don't know what model you're using but in any case, be sure you have set the elevator trim to takeoff pitch before begining your run, else you may find takeoff tricky if not impossible it some types.

Welcome onboard.

Be sure you dont have autopilot on.

I'll check it out. We had this problem before with a Posky 747 and I seem to remember the aircraft.cfg required an edit.


Edit:

Fixed version being uploaded now. Thank you for report.
