When banking, the aircraft also yaws

Featured Replies

Hello, I have noticed that when I apply any kind of bank input, the aircraft's rudder follows the same direction ie when I bank right the rudder goes to the right despite it being neutral on my peripherals, in the sim, and in the rudder trim, this does not happen on the ground. I haven't noticed this issue with other aircraft which is also flagrant here because I always end up in a weird bank angle on touchdown even when the winds are calm. I tried playing with the deadzone of the stick from the EFB no change, I am at 0.040. Thanks

It looks as if the yaw damper is putting in rudder to counteract adverse yaw. I'm not sure how much rudder input you'd expect to see on a real A340-600, but I do note that you're at a relatively slow airspeed in both cases, so it seems plausible to me that you'd need a fairly large rudder input. Given that Toliss have created a custom coded flight model for this aircraft, I'd assume that they've checked this and that it's accurate. For more on the yaw damper's role in countering adverse yaw, see here.

Looks like normal yaw dampner behavior. The 340-600 does not like slow speeds it is a handfull to handle at low speeds with high bank angles+ pitch attitudes. The flight situations in you screenshots would be considered way out of the norm.
