Balance Ball animation problem

Featured Replies

G'day all,I've been having a problem for a while now in that I've noticed that the Balance Ball in the Turn Coordinator does not move. I'm sure it used to. I don't know at what point it stopped working.I also thought perhaps it was just the aircraft I was flying but I've now flown at least four different types (add-on and default) with the same problem. I fly mainly GA airplanes and a Twotter.There doesn't seem to be any reference to this in the searches I've done, so I have to ask if anybody else is having this problem and if you know how it's fixed?Cheers,

Have you enabled autorudder in the realism settings? If so, the plane should stay coordinated in turns, with the ball centered.

:( :( Well I'll be darned! It was enabled.I was almost certain that it wasn't before posting and immediately after reading your reply but checked anyways. Funny/weird/stupid thing is, even if you select "Hard" from the realism preset list, "Autorudder" remains enabled. Deselected it and wahey! - I can now do sideslips and apply my own turn balancing again.Thanks very much, trisager, mate.
