How to fix exagerated Instrument Drift?

Featured Replies

Hi,All of a sudden, the frequency that FSX suggests I fix the drift of my direction indicator and altimeter has increased beyond realistic values. It seems like I have to fix it every three minutes or so. Does anyone know how to decrease this time interval? It seems I remember being asked about this parameter in some installation program, but I have no idea what package that was.Thanks,

I don't recall any way to change it. I just disable it because I find gyroscopic precession to be over exaggerated in FS

Hmm... What is the Gyro slider setting in the Realism options for?

That controls the gyroscopic precession of the aircraft due to the spinning propeller.In my case, the most annoying gauge is the altitude gauge, which needs to be adjusted when there are pressure changes.I think I'll just turn flying tips off.Ahh, you know what the difference is? I've been flying with real weather all the time now. Yes, I think turning off flying tips will help.
