Slew operation

Featured Replies

When I select SLEW (Y) my aircraft start rotating very fast in a 360 Degree circle continually. I've tried different air craft and they are all the same. Any help would be appreciated.

Check to make sure if any rotary dials on your joystick are centered. If it happens to all aircraft it may be joystick related.

you can do a test to see if its a joystick problem:

before going to slew mode hit ctrl+k (disables all control-inputs)  see if it goes away

you can than slew around with the arrow keys

Hi folks, thanks for the responses. I don't have a joystick, I have a Satiek Yoke and Rudder Pedals.

Doesn't matter, joystick / yoke / pedals

 

As long as they have axis the above mentioned troubleshooting will probably fix the issue
