A recent session in one of these new cheaper sims, during a OEI go around, I had full back-stick, 5° roll and full rudder, the a/c rolled to about 25°, beta target was fully deflected, and we continued to descend.

I mentioned it to the Check Captain, and we all watched as the pitch slowly came up, then all of a sudden it pitched to about 20° nu, the roll got canceled by the rudder I put and I was fighting to keep the thing upright as the original inputs actually started to take hold.

We tried it again with a similar result, and when mentioned to the Techs, they shrugged and said there is nothing they can do.

Apparently the “technique” is to raise the nose to about 5° nu and get about 1/2 rudder in first, then apply TOGA, and try to control it from there.

A little bit negative training me thinks.

But “it’s certified“😩
