Snarf Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Flying the P51 on the intercept mission I find that I have random bouts of what appears to be elevator flutter accompanied by rapid but brief pitch ups. Assuming the controls are programmed to be properly mass balanced this shouldn't be happening. This makes it almost impossible to shoot straight as every time you line up the target you get a sudden pitch up which throws off your aim. This is in straight and level flight so no other factors should be affecting it. I'm running a high end graphics card and computer and have no problem running the program on max everything with good frame rate and smooth video so I don't think its a performance issue from my end. Depending on which type of flight I am doing the problem may or may not appear but is consistently there for the intercept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Does it happen on any other modules? Does the rctrl+enter controls indicator show anything abnormal? It might be a joystick issue rather than the game. I recently had to bin a twist stick as every now and again it was smashing full right rudder on and off. Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!

Socket7 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Reproduce the problem, then post a track file so we can watch it happen. Practice makes perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snarf Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Think you were right Buzzles, repositing my joystick seems to have cured the problem. Flies very nicely now. Wings falling off seems better too now, this may have been caused by stress from the sudden pitch ups, The P51 while not as good an aircraft in general as the FW190D is the best gun platform I think, in the end stable shooting is a big plus. Thanks for the suggestion. Edited April 14, 2015 by Snarf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teapot Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 ... The P51 while not as good an aircraft in general as the FW190D .... :blink: .... why dost thou blaspheme? Sorry, couldn't resist ... however my perspective might change slightly when the Spit IX comes out. "A true 'sandbox flight sim' requires hi-fidelity flyable non-combat utility/support aircraft." Wishlist Terrains - Bigger maps Wishlist Modules - A variety of utility aircraft to better reflect the support role. E.g. Flying the Hornet ... big yawn ... flying a Caribou on a beer run to Singapore? Count me in. Extracting a Recon Patrol from a hastily prepared landing strip at a random 6 figure grid reference? Now yer talking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
