Question. I did some take offs at Dubai international with the A330-200F, wind just 04knts. Everytime in my take off around at speed of around 80 knts, the plane pulls all the way to one side in a sudden move. Uncontrolable. Is this a bug? Or am i doing something wrong here? Flaps where full.
The A330 is a very old model in IF and mostly everything is messed up or incorrect so just have to wait for a rework.

Also, another thing is that you probably shouldn’t takeoff with full flaps. You might wanna keep them around 15 to 20%. Also, if that wind was a crosswind, even though it’s small, it’s possible that it just moved your plane a tad to the left when you rotated.
Ok daniel. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Good to know, no full flaps. It started pulling way before the nose went up.
Remember to also use rudder inputs, and to rotate at the appropriate speed’s.
Yes, i do use the rudder when needed. And with the A330-200F a rotate at 180 knts the latest. (Sometimes at 170 knts) is that correct?
Well, maybe not that fast. Depending on how heavy you are, you can rotate around 135-140.
Great, i will try that from now on. Thanks!

You might also have auto-coordination on. That could possibly veer your plane off course when on the ground.
