Aircraft always pulling left on Saitek X52.

Recommended Posts

I have the Saitex X52 and I have calibrated it a few times. No matter what any aircraft I fly have a tendency to pull left.

 

Anyone else had this problem? Am I doing anything wrong?

This should only "affect" prop aircraft single or multiple but with the props rotating in the same direction.

 

Prop aircraft are supposed to show a pull to the left (provided their prop(s) rotate clockwise as seen from the cockpit), but mostly in yaw, and not quite so much in bank...although x-plane10 has this wrong - too much bank due to torque effects, and only slight yaw...

 

You might also try to increase the null zones in the various axis from within x-plane's joystick controller menu to check if apart from the idiosyncratic behaviour of prop airplanes in X-Plane10 you also have a problem with your roll or yaw/twist axis (?)

 

Before you start finding yet another annoyance typical of x-plane10, I'll say that NO IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE (sorry for screaming....) when a Cessna weathercocks / weathervanes as soon as you release brakes on the taxiway / rw, with a mild crosswind component of 5 knots... Up to 20+ knots this should only happen when you start moving.....

 

Great sim, but we have to be patient... some issues take their time to get sorted out by LR...
