When on the runway preparing for takeoff, I see that for some reason, my left wing seems to go down quite a bit. Its like it's tilting to far to the left. When I taxi, its normal and everything is normal. The plane is not tilted at all. When Im on the runway, I hold in my brakes while giving some thrust and alls I see is the left wing going down and down.

I only see my C-130 tilt to one side if I have an imbalance of fuel (too much fuel in the tanks on one side).
Go to Menu > Aircraft > Fuel and Payload > Change Fuel and see if there is too much fuel on the left side of the plane. To be sure this isn't the problem make sure every fuel tank has 100% of fuel and see if it no longer tilts to the left.

Hey Mark,

Ill check for that. whats weird is that it only tilts when i add thrust. when at idle, it doesnt tilt to either side.

Yepp, i checked the fuel and made sure that all tanks were equal. I was watching a youtube video of the CS C-130 and in the comments section,someone mentioned the wing tilting a bit.

I've never noticed this. So I need to go take a look. I let you know what I find.

I get this too with the same fuel loading in each wing and even with no cargo.

I knew it wasnt only me!

Is it a specific model (ACX-130, C-130E, C-130H, etc..)? Or is it all of them? Although I tried a lot of them, I don't think I tried all of them. I'm not seeing the wing tilt.

What version do you have? Is it the latest version of the product (v1.3)?

Mark

I'm pretty sure I have the latest updated version. I usually use the C-130 USAF current colors. Cant remember whether is was the H or E model.

The only USAF Current Grey that I have in my pack (C-130 X-Perience v1.3 with no 3rd party liveries) are the C-130E and C-130J-30. I did not have any wing tilt while taxiing either one of them. Nor, as I said before, any others that I have tried.

Its not really the taxi. Try lining up on the runway and hold your breaks while pushing your throttle forward.

Sorry about that, I must have gotten myself confused between when it was and wasn't doing it.

So I did some more testing. "I lined up on the runway, held the brakes while pushing the throttle forward" and I didn't get the wings tilting to the left (or right). I tried moving the ailerons left and right to get the tilt. No tilt. I also tried different settings of the Flaps (25%, 50% & 100%) again without getting the wings to tilt. I tried this on all the different models except the CL-130 (floats) and LC-130 (skis).

The only time my C-130 tilts either left or right, is when I turn while I'm taxiing.

Mark

Ah, well, its nothing too serious. It was just noticeable. Thanks for your time trying to figure it out Mark. I just thought of it now and it MAY be the wind? Sometimes I see the some of my planes do some weird stuff while taxing, taking off, etc. But anyway, thanks for your guys' help!

Did the same test, all is normal

Im not too sure what it is exactly but eventually I'll figure it out. I think it only happens to me sometimes and other times everything is normal.
