MSFS | TFDi MD-11 Tutorials - Episode 2: Taxi, Takeoff and Climb [4K]

[@mike577040]

Thank you!

[@LRT78526]

Thanks for your explanation

[@daveorr5858]

Really enjoying these videos I’m a little rusty on md11 last one I used was pmdg way back pulled my manuals and following along

[@David-gf1py]

I am on climb thrust magenta color. climbing speeds are 250kts. nav1 ap1 enabled. It keeps disconnecting autopilot. Climbing angle is 10 degrees up to 15 degrees max. May I ask for assistance?

[@rahellin]

Hello captain , thanks for sharing us these great tutorials 👌🏼👏🏼 Question what’s the name of you’re frame gen app ?

[@BritishAvgeek]

I don't have a frame gen app, I'm just using Nvidia control panel and the MSFS settings

[@Michael-zf1ko]

If you are stuck behind NVIDIA's greedy paywall by not having a 40 series card, then I highly recommend Lossless Scaling on Steam. It allows you to add frame generation to any application and it works wonders for MSFS.

Yes yes and yes

[@user-zp9yz3us2i]

i have like a small door on the left side fuselage that keep opening, what is that? how to close it?

[@BritishAvgeek]

@@user-zp9yz3us2i you can't. It's automated and part of the pressurisation system I believe

[@user-zp9yz3us2i]

@@BritishAvgeek how about the autothrottle button, where it’s located? I only use shift+r, thanks.

This will hopefully be a great plane, Ive been rooting for it and was an early purchaser. Unfortunately I feel like they releases a beta version to us. There are some pretty poor textures in some locations, and there are some serious bugs that keep this aircraft from being reliable for long haul flights. They seem to be aware of the issues as I have commented on their discord, but they also have a bad attitude and seem to think we should all be thankful for this unfinished aircraft that was the most expensive to date. 🙄

[@BritishAvgeek]

@@jay-rus4437 I raised some frustration with them in areas like it's inability to work properly with virtual airline clients and they are working through a long list of bugs and tweaks.

How can you install this livery when i download its a rar file and i just cant get it to work even after making it a zip could anyone help me out.

[@ajfurnari2448]

A rar file is much like a zip file. You have to unrar the file, and in the created folder, is the livery(ies)

[@timovankleef7476]

@@ajfurnari2448 i know but i have had a really hard time installing any livery for the tfdi md-11.

[@tony4284]

Open the .rar file -> Extract to community folder. Just like with any other aircraft / livery.

Pmdg 777 better.

[@Bluthemacaw1]

Yyyeeeeaaag, so far NOT a fan of the violent 25+ degree pitch up when activating AP after initial climbout.. good lord i hope they fox that ASAP, that is AWFUL.

[@dadgametime7160]

Made a dozen flights in the MD-11 now and never had this happen. I will keep an eye out for it.

[@Bluthemacaw1]

​@dadgametime7160 Yeah I figured it out, it was my fault, wasn't activating AP and AT correctly, just took off from Chicago, smooth as glass.

[@dadgametime7160]

@@Bluthemacaw1 beautiful

[@jay-rus4437]

I feel like its super light too…..tested my theory after landing. Brakes pressed full, speed at 65 knots, and slightly pulled back on the stick and the front gear popped right up. This aircraft should not be popping front gear up at 65 knots. Clearly there are issues

[@jay-rus4437]

“Just gently”….and then the nose comes flying up. NOT the fault of pilot…rather tfdi. Its way too sensitive

[@BritishAvgeek]

@@jay-rus4437 they have supposedly improved that in the last update but I haven't tried it

[@richardchafey6048]

The pitch moment is a deal breaker for me

[@alexc8920]

Well you have a heavy engine on the tail. From what I understood it's pretty accurate.

[@AjitSidhu360]

@@richardchafey6048 The MD11 is pitch sensitive IRL, the CofG is a lot further back thanks to that engine. Why do you think Betty tells you about stabiliser motion?

[@noway9880]

@@AjitSidhu360 yes. also a terrifying sound when the motion is uncommanded :D

[@MrThomas767]

Is it the PW engines variant?

[@alexc8920]

its GE. The PW is still in development.

[@MrThomas767]

@@alexc8920 yes thank you from the phone the external view looks like it, than I saw the rest of the ge cone lol...... anyway no pilots visible in the cockpit in external views....... I'm happy about the purchase but some disappointing
