FS 2002 Rudder Problem. Advice please!

Featured Replies

I have used several game controllers with FS 2002 and seem to keep one problem. The thing is that my rudder keeps pulling the aircraft to one direction all the time. I used a Logitech Wing Man with twist rudder which was lockable but I kept getting that problem. I figured it was because of the difficult twist system which was very difficult to properly calibrate and even if locked it still kept shaking the rudder axis back and forth. I did disable the axis in FS but kept the problem. This is NOT a wind issue, I have tested this, so even in perfect conditions with no wind at all the plane gets pushed slightly to the right or left while taxiing. This is just slight and perfectly controllable, but when taking off a 747, in close to V1 speeds, it

In the Air craft settings I had to change the slide bars from more real to less real in Gyro Drift, Torque and not sure what the third one was but the three slide bars in the middle. It has heelped some but I still have drift. If you use wind all the time 5 knots or better that may be where it comes from. It seems to take place when I have wind and not with out wind. I haven't used rudder trim setting but I'm going to now. I use MS force feedback 2. Have a great day and let me know if that works. Scot
