Double Dutch Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Hi, My plane very slowly turns left in free flight I noticed yesterday. I was planning to recalibrate my joystick when I had to set some things for only my throttle. To check if that worked I went into DCS without a joystick, in free flight and my plane was also very slowly turning left without my joystick being attached. So now I am assuming it is not my joystick but somewhere in DCS??? Any way I can set/calibrate that in DCS? ----- Don't practise till you got it right.

Hulkbust44 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 You need to use trim to correct. You can make sure there aren't any erroneous inputs by watching the controls position indicator. rctl+enter.Mobius708 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Dutch Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) I fly without weapons, free flight. it's always left. @Foka @Hulkbust44 So that means you always have to trim your plane? till you fly level if all is in neutral? Really? when I look rctrl - enter, it is right in the middle. I checked for joystick and keyboard input. Edited July 19, 2021 by Double Dutch ----- Don't practise till you got it right.

Foka Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 You have asimetric loadout - TGP on left cheek, and right cheek empty. TGP has some drag and pulls aircreft to the left. You have to trim. Do an experiment - from that loadout fire left side AMRAAM, notice how plane will behave. Then restart mission and fire right side AMRAAM and notice how plane will behave. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
