cronustr75 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Hi there, I'm using X-52 Pro as HOTAS. At navigation mission, I found that the F5E keeps rolling to right, I have to keep pressure to the left slightly. I looked at the control axis and found center is a bit right. Exit the mission, exit the module restarted but it was same. Keeps rolling. Checked the cables etc. It is normal at other modules. What is the problem?

razo+r Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Fuel imbalance? It only has fuel in the fuselage, which shouldn't cause any rolling maneuvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RED Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Is there a bug connected to wind? Op, did you try to trim? Still could be a problem with your hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiGon Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 It only has fuel in the fuselage, which shouldn't cause any rolling maneuvers. But it's unevenly distributed, which is why you have to use the fuel balance switch, or not?

razo+r Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Yes, but the tanks are front and after, and as you say it, unevenly distributed. But that would cause a pitch momentum and not a roll one, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I always thought they're left and right. :doh: Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

razo+r Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 They're front and after? Oh well, I always thought they're left and right. :doh: They are labeled like that, but there's no real space in the wings for some fuel, so yeah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cronustr75 Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 It is normal at other modules. At any direction it rolls to the right. Shift+enter shows default center point at right of cross section. So trim setup center leans to right but how? And how do I correct it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbrz Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Any wind in the mission? (steady) wind has absolutey zero effect on an airplane in flight. The only things that are affected are ground speed and track over ground. i7-7700K 4.2GHz, 16GB, GTX 1070 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svend_Dellepude Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 They are labeled like that, but there's no real space in the wings for some fuel, so yeah... They are labeled like that because of the engine they feed. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win10 64, Asus Maximus VIII Formula, i5 6600K, Geforce 980 GTX Ti, 32 GB Ram, Samsung EVO SSD.

Exit the mission, exit the module restarted but it was same. Keeps rolling. Checked the cables etc. It is normal at other modules. What is the problem? clear category to ALL and AXIS COMMANDS to the F-5E module. Exit Restart system Boot DCS Remap ALL and AXIS COMMANDS controls to F-5E module again. Report if this solved your "rolling" tendency from the looks of it, sounds like you have duplicate controls. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below.

Ramsay Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 They're front and after? Oh well, I always thought they're left and right. :doh: They are labelled that way because they feed the left and right engines. Physically they are forward (pipes feed the left engine) and aft (pipes feed the right engine) of each other and a fuel imbalance effects the CoG/pitch (not roll). Note: Cross feed allows either tank to feed both engines to adjust balance but can't transfer fuel between tanks. i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The aileron and pitch trims are swapped. When you try to trim for pitch, it trims the roll, and vice versa. Just swap them in adjust controls. The chinese hat trim switch is also incorrect. As it moves laterally, the plane trims in pitch. I've seen this with other planes, so I think it's DCS's sim engine.

msmith301 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Solved it, it was a trim problem. While you trimmed it to solve the problem it could also be that your axis alignment is out. If you go into roll axis alignment in your controls setup you might find that if the little red box which represents your joystick center is not right on the line then you need to click on that and move it over the line. Saw this on one of the Reaper's tutorial videos for control setup. Believe it was for the F-16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panton41 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I looked at the control axis and found center is a bit right. In the Axis Assignment have you tried setting a deadzone? Even high-end sticks need a deadzone and the X52 is far from high-end.

Antiguedad Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Try to unplug it, and replug it again. That way the driver centers the stick. I had the same issue and it worked. Also, put a small dead zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to do this with my Logitech Extreme 3d Pro. Fixes the issue every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same joystick and have never had to do this. Their quality does vary a lot though and I'm on my 4th one I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
