Display Refresh Rate
Per-display caps (PFD-1/2, MFD-1/2, MCDU-1/2, EICAS, IESS, EFB). Upper limit follows MSFS Glass Cockpit Refresh Rate.
Tail Strike Avoidance (TSA)
E190/E195 (including freighter). When enabled, TSA limits nose-up elevator near the ground:
Takeoff — radio altitude below about 28 ft AGL and thrust above ~70 %.
Landing — radio altitude below about 78 ft AGL and landing flaps.
Pitch more nose-up than about −5° at or below 12 ft RA commands a nose-down elevator bias (−0.2, or −0.3 beyond about −9°).
Leave off unless you want that protection.
