    Just a fwi it's uncontrolled with slight waves. Was Unable to take off. Now I have not tried on smooth water yet but the lake i landed on was hell trying to take off from only did by over torqueing and barely climbing out with the stall horn screaming the entire time 😆

        You're doing better than me, anyway. I landed on a lake yesterday morning, wind was a bit strong and blew the aircraft around to one side, wave under one float, sim reported a crash and reloaded the aircraft!

        Water physics in MSFS "could be better". The lough I landed on is one I've flown a floatplane to/from a number of times (albeit a while ago now) in real life and the water in MSFS drives me nuts whenever I try it in sim.

          I did read something inside the MSFS Forum that their might be a difference regarding theway the surface is handled as soon as you below 65 ktn.
          Need to do some tests to see if this does have any influence.

            Yea I'm not going to continue water operations till things improve. Saddly it was the main reason I bought the Caravan to expand my part135 operation to water destinations.

            But for now it's only pax and cargo on land.
