Taxi Performance....After Landing

Featured Replies

After completing landings and reaching taxi speeds, disengaging autobrakes, etc., the NGX makes sharp turns without any manual input and at the same time the aircraft feels as if the GW of the aircraft has been reduced by a lot more than the 10-15K lbs of fuel used during the trip. The rollout is fine but my landings thus far have been LAND3 so the rollout is auto-managed. Thus far I have experienced this on taxiways at KATL and KORD. I had also seen this behavior pre-SP1 but had dismissed it as a temporary anomaly but now it's happening again. Has anyone else seen this behavior ? Any suggested tweeks ?ThanksZach

Have you disengaged to autopilot after you autoland? If you don't do so, the aircraft will try to steer back onto the runway when you turnoff, trying to maintain the localizer.

Good question. The autopilot should be off since I have a Saitek macro that performs several functions after landing but I cannot say with certainty that the macro worked when I had this problem. Will look into it....thanks !Zach

Disengaging the A/P resolved the problem.Thanks,Zach

My nosewheel always pulls to the left AFTER landing (a/p off) but when taxying to depart it never happens.

Same thing here I always land manually, yet a couple of days ago, I had just loaded at kfll and while I was on taxi, the plane would suddenly start steering itself left and sometimes right. I have no clue what caused it, but I've also been having rudder trim problems when loading a panel state, and the turning has happened to me with panel states in which I had this rudder trim problem.Rudder trim problem: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/354706-possible-bug/page__pid__2171742#entry2171742

Personally I think it is a bad idea to have any kind of of trim whatsoever on an AXIS. Example if you got a thumb wheel and you put the Trim on that, there is no way to tell exactly where center is. So if you do not return to exact center position your going to have issues big time. The best way is to put any trims on a Rocker or POV.

I have trim up on one joystick button and trim down on another. My issue started when I had to adjust the rudder trim inflight, then after saving the panel state and loading it on a subsequent flight, the Ngx seemed to start with the rudder trim either full left or right.

How are you controlling the Rudder trim?

I don't have it mapped to anything since I pretty much never use it; I just move the 3d switch in the virtual cockpit.

So you do autoland and run macro's to do several functions after landing. Shame Cat III c isn't available for you yet...Bert Van Bulck

Sry to hijack this thread but does the NGX have a centerline follwing the way the MD11 has. In that case I have a bug :(

Ships are cooler that you think.

You need to have the fail operational option equipped. The fma should say rollout if I remember.

If you have seperate engine throttle controls, ensure your engine thrust is even.

Did this get resolved? I just upgraded to Sp1b and now I have his issue.Err - Apologies, I had CMD selected, and it wants to follow the LOC :-)
