Osprey crashes if door/ramp is openend, even in hover

    The Osprey is my favourite plane in MSFS by far, although the Chinook might top that. I noticed recently that the Osprey crashes easily when I open the ramp or the door in flight, even when in hover. It crashes within 30 secs. I seem to remember it did nto do that in previous verisons. After seeing some real Ospreys fly on YouTube, I tried to imitate their "helo drop" but also flying with an open ramp (in some cases dropping cargo or having a machine gun there). I could not. Would there be a setting I got wrong or is this a bug?

        Hi Bert,

        As per the aircraft FAQs:

        Aircraft is Crashing/Overstressing
        It is strongly recommended to have crash detection and aircraft overstressed turned OFF. MSFS conflicts with custom physics, triggering false crashes. The Osprey features a custom-made crash detection system that will trigger failures if the props collide with objects
