Hello everyone! 👋 I have a strange problem with the second lesson, effects of the controls. When I get the control of the aircraft it just dives. Controls are animated but the Cessna falls like a rock. I have many years of experience with flying sims and i have tested also on the msfs other flights, with no problem at all. Any ideas? ---

Hi! We have no other reports on this. Which simulator are you using? And can you confirm it works if you run a free flight in the Cessna? ---

Hello, I m using MSFS 2024. Yes I fly without problem on free flight. I finally finished the lesson by letting the plane go down and escape-end flight before crashing. I will try next lesson to see if the same applies and report back here.
