I actually have different settings that I use for each plane I use, so I can make each plane handle as closely to its real counterpart as possible. Lot of work to remember, but it's worth it when you have a Beaver that flies just like a real one, 747 that handles the same, all that.
I even change it when I fly a Cessna, or a fighter jet.
It really comes from experience, I find. I've been in almost every plane in FSX (Except the fighters and racers) and I know how each one handles, so it just comes naturally to me.
I'd like to see how my batshit-crazy "airbike" design would do in a race like this. Actually, no I wouldn't. Even though it's only 300lbs or so, the 65hp two-stroke engine would probably struggle to get it up to the 150kt range, which would be abysmal. It's designed for really, REALLY tight turns. When I say tight turns, I mean the Red-Bull air-race stuff is like a wide sweeper.
why does the plane turn to the left when starting to taxi?? i apply rudder to the right but the response is in like 20sec later.... the plane turns by itself even when i turn the auto rudder on wat the hell?!
yes i already know that... but my problem is when i try to counter it with right-rudder the response is very slow and the plane keeps spinning... don't u have this problem?
I do have that problem. I have my rudder pedals set to about 10% sensitivity, as well, and I find that well quick enough.
Try fiddling with your rudder sensitivity a little, just to find that soft spot where it's perfect, that's what I had to do, and my controls fit me perfectly, now.
The fact that you managed to fly for this long in this game on those settings while recording it as a single clip is absolutely astonishing. That said, the chase plane view does get old surprisingly fast and goes a long way to eliminating the sense of flight that is best captured in the cockpit. The in-pit scenes did feel faster and more real, though TrackIR would've improved it immensely!
Which reminds me, I can't remember if you ever got TIR?

do you use a joystick because i can not handle at well with this plane!
davie020 2 years ago
I use both a Saitek X-52 Pro joystick for military and racing, and a Saitek Yoke Pro for all others.
All in combination with Saitek Pro Pedals.
So I don't use any keyboard or any mouse for my flying.

Quote: Lower the sensitivity; I have my roll and pitch set to 5%, and my yaw set to 10%.
Thank you so much for your brilliant advice! I have just completed the race for the first time after changing my settings.
Do you fly the whole of FSX with the ailerons and elevator set to 5% rudder set to 10% sensitivity or do you use these settings just for the races?

I would love to know the settings you useing for each plane. Is there somewhere I can find this info?

I can't remember my settings off hand, sorry.

Does it kill your FPS?
volcom1722 2 years ago
I run it about 40 FPS the entire race. The lowest my FSX will go is about 25 FPS over like, L.A.

i cant control this plane. do u have any tips?
DunderMifflinpeople 3 years ago
Just be gentle with the stick, or yoke. I've never had any problems with it.
redwyvernridermike 3 years ago
yea, see ill do a movement on the stick and then i cant get it back into control, cause it'll turn and flip etc. i have the rudder problem too.
DunderMifflinpeople 3 years ago
Lower the sensitivity, I have my roll and pitch set to 5%, and my yaw set to 10%, and that works just fine for me.
And then just don't make any sudden movements. Hope that helps.
Cheers

It's called P-Factor. The propeller is in a counter-clockwise cycle, therefore it's goign left.
Thanks to torque, the faster that prop is spinning, the more the plane wants to turn left.

Check your ADI. If it isn't on, you will blow your engine.
