Jerky nosewheel

Featured Replies

Hello all,

With both aircraft that I use in FSX, the iFly 737 and the QW 757, I am experiencing a jerky behaviour at irregular intervals when taxying, but only to the right and only after landing. Before take-off this behaviour doesn’t present itself. I have repeatedly calibrated the joystick (Logitech Extreme 3D), with the Windows (7) Wizzard (through FSX) as well as with the FSUIPC calibration page (filter activated), but the issue remains. I am using Accufeel, but can’t imagine that this has anything to do with the described behaviour. Would be grateful for any thoughts as to how to eliminate these jerks.

 

Regards,

René

If you are calibrated over FSUIPC, are you also assigned there? And if yes, did you delete ALL (and I mean ALL) assignments in FSX? Switch through ALL controllers and delete anything you don't need.

 

If its of help, I find that doing everything over FSUIPC results in much more precise controls than in FSX), thus I have controllers in FSX generally disabled. Everything is configured in the FSUIPC.

Sounds like an adjustment in Accufeel is necessary. I use Accufeel after all the locomotion about it; but honestly could not find any need for it to make my flying experience any better, except for landings tire noise. Apart from that the other effects were really poor or "fakey," which only caused my a/c to jerk and move like a wagon on a rough road-- even at lower settings!. But, again everyone has their own opinions and experiences. So, try different settings!

Thank you both very much for the replies. I'll try different settings for Accufeel.

 

Word Not Allowed, it appears that I have taken a kind of hybrid approach by only calibrating aillerons, elevator and rudder in FSUIPC, so in fact used only the first page. I even left the throttle alone, since setting it in FSUIPC led to weird effects, but then I may have done something wrong. If I understand you correctly, your advice is to work through all (11) calibration pages. I'll give it a try. So far I've been a bit 'scared' to jump into the FSUIPC 'axis science'.

 

Kind regards,

René
