Hi Guys your thoughts thinking you need rudder pedals to control this bird - using spoiler axis on saitek quadrant but aircraft is all over the place also on take off cant imagine landing this with the same process - you cant push forward throttle and control axis at the same time any thoughts would be appreciated.

Don't think there is much debating that is there,? When i first stated this hobby years ago I decided then the three most important pieces of hardware were. Yoke, rudder pedals and a 6 axis throttle quadrant for realism. No matter what the model of aircraft or how realistic it is modeled.

Thanks for your thoughts Rendi

I'm with Rendi on that. Those three things are a must.

The tiller/spoiler axis doesn't work above 40 knots, so you should be OK using a yoke or joystick for the tiller axis, my HOTAS WH works great, plus you can switch the tiller off with a switch just above the tiller on the left side panel. I have that assigned to the AT switch on my VRi MCP panel. I tried using the spoiler axis but preferred using my joystick instead, it was much more intuitive.

 

I think MJC could improve this slightly by making the tiller response a little less sensitive around the neutral point i.e. a flatter slope in the middle.

Thanks Andy great info I do not have a joystick so I think I would have to spend more money for pedals here we go again lol expensive hobby - I will look into your ideas Andy - take care.
