"Osprey feels too light" … might be a (strange) MSFS? oscillation bug
Today I did a flight and again the Osprey started shaking, as if the wind was tossing it around like if it were a feather.
I turned off the AP to check if it was the cause … but the shaking stayed.
I switched to "Clear Skies" weather … but the shaking stayed.
I made a video which I will upload once I have edited it to a reasonable size.
So maybe … just maybe … it is not really about the weight … but maybe I did see that same oscillation bug before, but attributed it to the (strong) winds.
It might be a MSFS bug … and so I will keep watching out for it after SU11 did roll out. Who knows what impact that upgrade might have.

I've seen this before - the "aircraft feels too light" reported by some is a different issue.
Haven't been able to consistently replicate the issue with oscillations, but I've seen it a couple of times, and just reducing altitude fixed it. No idea what's the root cause of it. Do you know if you had nacelles at 0 or any other position? Roughly altitude and speed?

The nacelles were at 0 deg … when I noticed it
… but maybe it started prior to that. It happened after I took off from an airport, and I was focused on my AP testing (ideas).
When I turned of the AP I noticed that shaking.My alt was somewhere between 7.000 and 10.000 ft … and I was not able to get rid of it … no matter what I did (AP on/off … slow/fast … switch weather … asc-desc … etc.).
It only stopped after I landed (at Kigali, HRYR … ca 5.000 ft).- Miltech Simulations @MiltechSimulations
Let me know if you experience this issue again. I've been unable to consistently replicate or find the root cause.
