Rudder Issues


fsfs2

Recommended Posts

Dear All,

The rudder as it is simulated, as very little sensitivity. Any clues?

In addition, when you apply Rudder and then release it, the rudder kicks back - going to the other side of its center. You see this in the displays and also see this if you in the Spot view from the back of the plane. This seems not to be normal. Any thoughts?

Thanks

Federico

Hardware correct calibrated

Yes, joystick X52 is calibrated.

FSX setting as mentioned in the manual?

If I apply Null Zones to the rudder axis (as it says in the manual) it will get worst...even more insensible.

1. Which axis did you assign to rudder - a twist axis of your joystick?

2. How does your joystick rudder behave with other aircraft? Please check.

3. What if you set Sensitivity to Max and Null Zones to Min?

4. Double check for any extra assignments for rudder inputs - may even be keyboard keys - remove any double ones

5. Is there any software for the X52 and, if yes, do you have it installed?

6. Do you have a registered FSUIPC installed in your sim?

The default X52 Pro axis for the Rudder

2. How does your joystick rudder behave with other aircraft? Please check.

No issues with other planes.

Max Sensitivity and Min Null Zones

4. Double check for any extra assignments for rudder inputs - may even be keyboard keys - remove any double ones

5. Do you have a registered FSUIPC installed in your sim?

No extra keys, no FSUIPC installed

There must be a problem on the line between the bus and your controller.

Otherwise all other users (including myself) would have the problem.

Our aircraft addon is exactly the same. All the difference is in the controllers and settings/assignments/callibration.

SInce you are sure there is no double axes/assignments for you rudder, it is hard to say where exactly the culprit is hidden.

One more thing: are you sure your AUTORUDDER is off?

And what happens if you watch your joystick movements, especially the rudder axis on the ECAM F/CTL page?

i think it looked like this

Exactly, this is the 2nd point of the rudder. The rudder kicks back like that. This is not normal?

In addition, sensitivity is very low.

I guess so. I don't know if other users are experiencing this.

Autorudder is Off

Let me check tonight this, I will revert to you.

Thanks

Yup auto rudder is off too. I have a clean installation of my fsx weeks ago . No problem with NGX either or any prop plane. Only happen in the air. Is it something do with the FBW? Since it comes on once the plane is in air

Same problem

Same problem here (rudder 'kick back') As the AAX wasn't planned to include any failure modelling I never tried engine out flying before.

Due to the decribed rudder problem I just tried an engine failure at V2 and noticed that the rudder effectiveness is way too low. The VMC should be around 110kts but I can't keep the heading even at much higher speeds.

Also during crosswind landings the rudder is much more sensitive IRL.

To be honest, I had that feeling as well that the rudder is not effective is enough, but at that time it was Before SP1 and VNAV was more important, so I put it aside and forgotten all about it. Now that its brought up again....,

Temporary fix is to go into the aircraft.cfg and modify:

rudder_effectiveness = 1.0

to

rudder_effectiveness = 2.5

This will give it quite a bit more "kick" during landings.

Thanks Joshua.

Just one last question, what about the rudder kicking back?

not too sure but its control by yaw dumper in turn but it should not kick back as in the video?
