My plane is banking
 
Hello pilots!
I just got this game, and after reading a little here on the forums, it looks like that was not a good investment. But I disagree, I simply just love it...
I`ve been fiddeling with my controls, and I set up my xbox controller for now, and it works pretty well. I`m getting a flight stick in a few weeks.
So I use the left thumb stick to fly the plane, the right for looking about, and on the pad I have trim nose up and down and rudder left right.
Still, every plane is banking to the right, and it`s very hard to fly in a straight line.
Am I missing some trimming? I just assumed that rudder trim would be the right one to fiddle with to counter the banking. It help a bit, but not much. That is the only thing that irritates me a little, allways have to correct..
Allso I cant find the auto pilot enable/disable in the settings.... I want to use it for longer flights, and just forr keeping up with the ai:rolleyes:

FOH.

Which plane? They dont have trims for each axis. The 109 for example only has trim on the Elevator. You have to fly with a small amount of rudder to go in a straight line.

Oh, I should have mention that yes.
As I just started, I play the english campain with the cheesy story and all. The first plane (dont remember the name now) and the spitfire are the only planes i have flown, and both acts the same.

Its the torque from the engine, I think spits/hurris have rudder and elevator trim but I really dont know.

FearOfHights 05-10-2012 06:15 PM

Yes they do, both of them. Thank you, looks like I need to practise fine tuning my trims:)

About the auto pilot, how do I make it work? I found a toggle ai in the control settings, is that the right one? Anyway, it was mapped to "A", but nothing happens when I use it.

I dont know, I have always flown full switch and online. No autopilot ;)

I have a complete G940 I will sell you.

Thanks for the offer, but I think shipping cost and import taxes here in Norway will make that more expensive than buying it from the store.
I was thinking about this one: http://www.komplett.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=301766
Now I know nothing about what is a good stick, and what aingt so good. How is the stick I put in the link?

5./JG27.Farber 05-10-2012 09:52 PM

mid range stick... So so...

Binky why you selling your G940, how old and how much?

I became frustrated with trying to get to work as easily AND as well as my MS FFB stick. It 2yrs old, and not used much.

How does $275 sound?
