Uhhh I tried many times but lifting up the aircraft at MTOW is impossible!! Somebody help me what to do I set the power to max flaps to full nothing is working.
Its called “Max Takeoff Weight” for a reason… hence why you cant take off… it has nothing to do with the app. This is user error.
So can you help how to takeoff??
Do you get a response from the trim menu on the left (as in a pink line appearing when you try to use the elevator)?
Full flaps is making it worse. Try 5° or 15°.

maximum takeoff weight means maximum takeoff weight and you can’t takeoff at that weight
Also don’t use full flaps or power

You should be able to take it off at MTOW. Reduce flaps, full power. Max the trim, use a long runway.
Just to check if it’s a device issue, does your gyroscope work on planes/apps?
Only use flap settings above 5° when the runway is shorter than expected. Other than that flaps 5 will work even at MLW
Where are you attempting to takeoff from? Is it hot?
@ 30°c or more, MTOW is too much…
If I remember correctly the 787 at MTOW won’t leave the ground until well past 160, 170 knots without tailstrike. 40%+ trim is also advisable so you don’t have to pull up so much.

question: why are you even at MTOW in the first place

There is nothing wrong with the user being at MTOW, let’s clear that up.
Aircraft are very capable of departing at MTOW and there will be a significant safety buffer. If aircraft were unable to depart at MTOW then the maximum weight would be lower.
As for tips in taking off
Use positive trim
Rotate at a slightly higher speed when at high weights
Use a higher flap setting than normal when at high weights

Do 15-degree flaps, full power, 10 trim, and find a longer runway!! If the runway you are departing from is just too short, accept that the aircraft is too large, and you have to go somewhere else.
