Discovered this lovely gem in my quest to uncover carrier ops options in MSFS. I’m sure most know of it, but just in case: https://flightsim.to/file/17785/dassault-rafale-m

Looks good and I like the weight-specified load out options. What’s odd is a strange roll instability right before around V1-90 or so kts all the way through rotation and up to about 200kts. And in reverse - on landing, about 140 kts down to around 80 kts. I’ve consciously ensured it’s a balanced fuel and stores load out. Happens irrespective of clean or with (balanced) stores. The instability is a roll to right, as if the plane was wildly loaded too heavily on the starboard side.

My flight settings are to “hard”. Anyone else found this behaviour?

Additionally, I can’t find either Hyeres or Landvisau bases from which to fly. Any leads would be good.

Finally, the Miltech CDG carrier. Good and worth the price? I remain (and still fly in P3Dv4) all the RFN boats-they’re my standard of excellence for French naval carrier aviation.

Thx!
 
Thanks Steph - nice to see some other lovely gems I enjoyed from Restauravia (MS Paris) now available in this sim. Thanks for the endorsement Cees.

Anyone have the right roll issue I’m seeing?
