irI have researched all of these forums, Project Air Bus forums...and IFDG forums..seeking an answer to stall problems on the A320. It happens on each model, regardless of whether it is Project Airbus or IFDG.
Stall characteristics are totally unrealistic. With many many thousands of hours of real world flying experience...I know how an aircraft is supposed to stall..and what happens during and after in terms of recovery.
I have not had any problems with Approach to stall..Stall Break and stall recovery in any of the multitude of aircraft types I have installed.When I set the aircraft up for slow flight and approach to stall  in this config....Flaps up, gear up, both engines at Idle...and Angle of attack at +7 Nose up. the stall occurs at 125+ or - knots. After this occurs...the aircraft simply drops straight down,  and normal stall recovery does not work...pushing stick all the way forward....and full power...the aircraft still continues to drop straight down, in more or less a Level or nose high or nose low attitude,depending on where I have stick.  rolling left or right...pushing nose all the way to near vertical does not arrest the stall or allow for recovery from the stall...I have to believe this is a problem some place in the flight model but I have tried every thing I can think of..in terms of tweaking Force feedback....or Flight tuning,  etc..
Has anyone else experienced this with the Airbus Product regardless of Project Airbus or IFDG. Sure would appreciate any info. thanks in advance.

I wish I could help but can't so can only observe that my Auster 5 should stall at 13 with full flaps but goes at 28.  Pulling the stick sharply & full power usually does the trick but an A320  Undecided
Hope you get it fixed.

Not sure it's relevant to this topic but 28 sounds about right. The placarded stalling speed for the Auster 5 with full flap is 30 mph.
