MMM, not sure what about your speed?, 100%-110%.
I would try with max power and breaks on, after this, cut of the breaks and then...fly away.
Do this and tell us. Could be other probles, if this works something is wrong with the plane...(not sure about last thing). 😕

I have tried what your suggested with the braked on and all, I had it set to be as relistic as it could so I changed it so it wasent relistic at all I started it up, I had parking brakes on put full throttle what it got to about 110% N1 I took away the parking brakes and still it wouldent even let me rase the nose wheel off the ground at 190kts!!!!! I think the plane itself is messed up lol. can anyone give me a link to a good A340-300 so I can try that and see if its the same deal or if its just my plane.

Thanks

Ok man i had the first problem. first of all , u should try to increase the pitch the pitch, then the flaps at 5 % and press and hold brakes for 50 n1, then 100 n1 and when u are getting 120 kts try to pitch the airplanes nose up alil bit about 2 degres over the horizen at 160 kts u pitch the nose up till 10 degress untill u will have a vertical climb, ASAP u are 100 over gears up and 1000 flaps retract, and always climb with 10-15 degrease nose pitch, not 20 , because dont forget its a realy heavy plane.

Try limiting fuel to 20% see if this helps...if it does then it is a weight issue. Think of it like this Try pushing a big 4 x 4...not easy then try pushing a smart car/city car something light...little easier? Same principle with the same motive force it will take longer to get the cars up to speed. Additionally an aircraft at AUW needs to create more lift than if it is light. Lift needs to overcome weight. Lose weight or increase runway!

i had a concored exactly like that. it gets to 200 knots and still ends up on the ground. 🙄 in the end i just downloaded a different one.
