mcgrouch 0 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ailerons? Where are they? The only way im stopping myself from flying in a left circle is to make the copilot fat ass 170 lbs too. But it still creeps to the left i guess due to torque. Default FSX autopilot and mapping aileron keys to my joystick isn't working. Cool plane but i'd like to not babysit it so much on longer flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horst18519 231 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 There will be an Autopilot available soon, but for the meantime do it like the real pilots do: keep your hands on the yoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snave 466 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 The torque is much-mitigated by setting a low cruise power and prop setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumprock 9 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Don't forget to switch your fuel tanks every now and then, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You add right (or left, as appropriate) rudder FIRST, to counteract the torque, then a little bit of aileron to counter any roll created by the rudder (watch the ball to ensure you don't side-slip). If she's going left, add right rudder. Best regards, Robin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
