Bouncing

Post by CaptainDale » Fri May 10, 2024 12:47 pm

Hi i've just started to use the A318 again, however i've noticed when im braking the plane is bouncing on it's front landing gear, i have not noticed this on the a321 that i own from LVFR. Is this a characteristic only the A318 has or is it something else?
EDIT:
Forgot to include video, sorry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV3iVcHz_qE

Thank you!
Dale

Thanks for the speedy reply! Glad it wasn't something of my doing, looking forward to the patch.

Thanks again

I have the same issue, if I set up on a runway ready for takeoff it goes away. However if I start at the gate it takes a lot of power just to get moving and the aircraft bounces like crazy, can't even steer it. Please fix soon. Thank you.

I have made some improvements to the aircraft wheel and contact points, suspension, and weight and balance. I sent it to Ricardo for testing, adjustments, and approval. It will be up to him to include it in a future update.
