JS-41 Elevators controls were not responding on time

Featured Replies

After two hours flight, I tried to land two times to CYBC ILS Rwy10. All went perfect until I disconnected A/P at 500Ft . Elevators wasn't responding immediately to my inputs. . Best way to describe elevators were not responding according my pull/push of the yoke on time. When it responded, it was either fully up or down. I hardly avoided the crash. I always checked the trims after disconnecting the A/P. Today they were free and OK, no pressure on the yoke. It gave me the impression elevator controls was partially still with A/P command.It was not normal. During second approach, I closely monitor CH yoke and JS-41 yokes if they were making parallel travel. Yes their actions were equal to each others. I flew with PMDG MD-11X and 747X if I can repeat the problem, all went OK and no problems. But there is some problem with JS-41 elevators.(IN MY PC) Delayed response from elevators was a big challenge and was not fun.I tried to explain today's flight experience as much as possible. I hope PMDG teams can advise me some help.ThanksSanal

Try calabrating your hardware, or maybe this has something to do with the null zones.

Have you installed the CH Manager software? If not, download the latest version, install and then use it to calibrate the yoke.

Open FSX. Go to settings.On the right theres a box which says SOUND CONTROLS REALSIM, GENERAL, and Scenery library... Click on controls. you should see the name of the hardware you are using. Click the CALIBRATE button. Then click on properties. Then you start calibrating with the instructions.

FYI: I have had issues using Windows standard calibration tools for the CH hardware. That's why I recommended using CH manager.
