757 rotating at 60 knots?

Support
#1

Hi IFC, I’ve been flying around with the 757 and noticed that when rolling down the runway on takeoff my aircraft automatically begins to rotate at 60 knots. Is there a reason behind this? If so please let me know how I can avoid this issue, thanks.

Did you check your calibration by any chance?

Happens to me as well, it’s just really powerful I guess lol

I will usually just push the nose down.

I don’t usually calibrate my device on take off, should I be doing this? I did not input any actions/pull my device up, so I have no clue why this is happening.

What is your trim?

I had it set at 25%

I’d try 10 degrees, it’s less exaggerated.

Flaps were at 5 degrees

This issue is already noted internally and will hopefully be addressed in the future. Thanks for bringing it up :)

Ok. Was the pink trim bar titling strongly in any direction?

Not necessarily after take off it was very minor, I had to bump it up to 30 degrees and back down to 29 degrees.

Got it. The 757 can have a tendency to rotate quite early. This is due to many factors. In addition, I think 25% may be a bit much for takeoff trim, unless the aircraft is very heavy. If it still happens at 60 knots, I would try and keep the nose down until rotation speed. For more information, this topic is helpful:

Thanks for your help! I’ll ensure to use less trim next time and see if this works.
