I’ve only flown the airbus a couple of times in the sim. Took me about 10mins to realise that smaller control inputs are better and that it’s very sensitive in roll. I was PIO in roll to start with but then just let go, and then learnt to make small inputs. How the hell did he get through training doing that?!
Yup. Was on the bus over a decade. Most new to FBW guys would be all over the place on their first departure with a bit of gusts/turbulence. I would suggest letting go of the stick for a few seconds. The look of amazement was always worth it.
