Pulling to the left.

Featured Replies

Hi Folks. Does anybody know, why all of a sudden all the aircraft in my FS9, be it a Cessna or a Boring 737 have all started pulling to the left. On the runway or in the air (left wing slight drop). The image above shows the Heading Guage when on A/P and as you can see the Heading bug is slightly to the right of center, this is where the A/P is trying to offset the pull to the left I think. Is there a way of correcting this drift to left please? I have zero winds set, so it is not drift, due to wind direction.

Thanks

John

Maybe you inadvertely triggered either aileron or rudder trim? Try to find out with an aircraft that shows those values (IIRC the standard Boeings do have that gauge)Good luck!

Some of the gauge graphics have random offsets so they don't line up properly. This is obviously intentional, probably to make the gauge look more "realistic", but I find the effect annoying. You can edit the offsets out in the gauge XML file with a little work.

 

The pull to the left is more likely a rudder control not properly calibrated, especially if it happens in the air and on the ground in all aircraft.
