MD11 - Flight controls are not smooth

Featured Replies

Maik,You can be part of the solution yourself!As others in this thread confirm the "jitter" as well, they all state that it does not effect flight characteristics.That's my opinion as well. As long as the aircraft is flown inside the correct speed bracket. Speed above Vmin amberband and below Vmax for the present configuration.So if you can handle her like that, a possible smooth pitch control is your reward.Things become different if you find yourself flying a speed that's too low or too high.In those cases, correct manual elevator control is no longer possible, because only full elevator up or down deflection is possible. A whole different magnitude than some jitter.As this is not as per real aircraft, I would appreciate some correction here when possible.For the time being please keep your speeds within the limits.Best regards,Harry
I had an issue with flight controls with my MD-11 (and only the MD-11) that was resolved by NOT using FSUIPC to calibrate my flight controls. when I sent the axis directly to FS9 the issue was resolved (and the LSAS actually worked as I expected it to).I asked the question several months ago to see if this was/is a requirement but never received an answer. Either way, give it a shot....it sounds like you've got nothing to lose.Hope this helps.

Thanks Jeff! I will give it a shot

Well I had to work one day (8 hours) to buy this addon, so I really wanna have a well working 11, ya knowThanks againMaik

I solved that problem by lowering the sensitivity sliders for my yoke just a notch. No more twitching.

No sweat. Let us know if it helped...it seems like others are having the issue too.

I have the same problem.But once I turned the LSAS off, the problem disappeared, so I strongly believe that the problem is caused by the LSAS.Fortunately, the flight characteristics are not affected.Tom
I have the same Problem.I switched LSAS off too and now everything is OK. Thank you very much :)(Saitek X52 and registered FSUIPC)
