Front wheel sliding when turning 787
Trying to take a turn going as little as 7-8 knots causes the front wheel to slide wide on the 788

I see the same behavior on my side, the plane is pretty much impossible to turn.
That said, the B789 turns "like it should", while the B788 needs around 60-70% of thrust with medium/full applied brakes so it somehow makes a 90° turn. The same goes for when taking-off, the plane is pretty much uncontrollable.

Any news on the landing gear animation in the touchdown?

🫡 that would be incredible
Max @TechnicalAssistantThis looks good so far but we can't release the new flight model until it's properly tested.
What happened: the plane is now landing correctly as we needed to shift weights and coordinates.
So we will finally have a landing animation that doesn't send the tyres through the runway??

HI!
We do, but we have to adjust the flight model.
Since this MOD needs the plane location to be away from the center point (in order to spawn in the cockpit, cudos to the other guys for doing it right) it's what makes things bad.
Of course, if we didn't have a locked premium deluxe plane, this would have never been an issue for you guys.We need to give this our full attention once the other updates are released. Flight model is sensitive work.
