Over "G" Structure

[Muskoka]

Guys, I think that was the message in the corner of the screen, anyways the aircraft shuts down. This has happened on numerous occasions when climbing out in bad weather, and certainly not going fast enough to do damage to the aircraft. I have posted a screen shot about 2 seconds after it happened, you can see the aircraft starting to bank, but the simulator has already stopped with the error over "G". I don't know what I need to do so this doesn't happen. Is it a XPX, or CRJ thing?? In the included screen shots you see I have the anti-ice stuff on. I also included the "System Failures" "Flying Surfaces" which says the Right wing is inoperative, this I don't understand. I've never changed anything with regards to "Failures". Any help would be appreciated.

Well.. you had an accident.

If you fly the plane through turbulences that is what happens... you break the plane. That is why when raining you have to put the weather radar to not go through orange-red areas.

But also it is good if you increase the number per frame solutions in the area where you choose to start with engines running or not. Increase to 2. That way the plane will be more stable... but you will loose some fps (not too much).

So.. when you have bad weather you have to consider how bad is... so maybe you don't have to fly that day... or avoid the dangerous area.

Hi, yes I agree, I had an accident. I guess the point of the post was I shouldn't have. The weather wasn't bad enough to have caused the "accident".

I have done some more testing in other aircraft, and it seems to be related to the somewhat "overdone" turbulence.

Flying with real weather, in some bad weather, not horrible, but not ideal, 10-15 knot winds, bit of snow, the turbulence jumps all over the place (I watch the data output for weather). It will go from .05 to .3+ in seconds, throw the airplane out of AP mode and within seconds you have an over "G" situation, and your flight is done. Just happened in another payware aircraft.

Is there some way to tame the turbulence down, without having to resort to flying without real weather. I guess I could get rid of the "System Failures", would that work?. I'll have to look into it more.

Could you please increase the solutions per frame to 2 or 3 please? It is where you select to start with engines running option. As toy said if it happened with other plane it is because xplane, not the crj.

What it does that number is male more stable the plane in fast situations. Try it.

I'm complaining about this too. This is not right. On earlier versions of X-Plane, before v10.10 it used to behave like this:

 

 

But now the aircraft simply crashes instantly.

so if there is a different behabiour in xplane 10.10 before versions, then that is something related with xplane itself isn't it? because we didn't change anything in that area. But if they changed something and is going to be for the future.. then we should change in the plane maker.. But the specifications are clear with the maximum Gs the plane can have. And that is very simple in plane maker. Just a number.

 

For me sounds like a bug from Laminar or something overdone.

 

By the way.. good video!
