Featured Replies

Hello guys,

You have bigger problems than that. Look at the horizontal stabilizers. They are not trimmed the same. But you are in luck because they are all that way. Someone made a big deal about it several years ago on this forum. Anyway, I have had my laugh for today.

Well, we will probably need some more info. Is this just an animation issue or does it affect flight. When looking at the control surface state in the VC, does it show the left spoilers deployed?

 

There is not state of hydraullic settings that I can think of which would allow for this configuration.

Check the CONFIG SD page and move the flight controls to full deflection, and wait. At full deflection the deflection angle will fill GREEN to show full deflection. Does this happen with all control surfaces?

 

Asymmetric spoilers is not possible (as noted above). I'm just wondering if the aircraft failed to initialize properly. It looks like you're in FSX?

 

Try this - delete or remove the flight that loads when FS starts, then load the Cessna and actually get into the sim. After that, load the MD-11. Does it still do this?

 

I have found the aircraft to be very sensitive to saved situation files (in my case, it just completely fails to be functional at all).

 

Best regards,

Robin.
