June 5, 200520 yr HiIs there any way of improving the bad turaround at FS aircraft. You cant turn the aircraft around in a runway even if it is 40 m without getting out in the grass. That is not realistic. Anyone who know a way of improving that without getting poor performance in the air.Thomas ESNN
June 5, 200520 yr hmmm... maybe it's that particular aircraft that has a problem? i turn the fs 172 exactly as in real life, same inputs, same performance... or maybe i didn't get your question :-(
June 5, 200520 yr Is it possible that you could be using too much throttle? The higher the speed the larger the turn. You could also try using your engines to help you turn in mutli engine aircraft, for a right turn advance only your left throttle while the right is at idle. Hope this helps!Philip Olsonhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpg
June 5, 200520 yr Thomas,If you mean single-engine aircraft, like the Cessna 172, then you can apply the inner brake and increase throttle a bit to turn almost on the spot (I believe this does work in real life also?) I know this works in commercial jets but as stated, applying LEFT throttle to turn RIGHT is recommended for multi-engine aircraft, along with, I assume, the RIGHT brakes. In essence, if I understand correctly, you are "pivoting" the aircraft almost on the same spot without moving forward, which is the only option in tight areas.John I love flying my "iddy biddy Jumbo" CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, socket 775/3GHz/1333MHz bus/6MB cache MOBO: Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP@n/Intel X38 chipset RAM: 4GB Kingston HyperX 1333MHz. rated 7-7-7-20, matched pair (2 x 2GB) GRAPHICS: Sapphire Radeon 5770HD 1GB (w/ fan) MONITOR: Samsung 24", 2494HM LCD wide-screen 1920x1080 SOUND: SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS HARD DRIVES: 1xWestern Digital WD1600JD SATA 160GB (primary/Windows XP and system boot drive) 1xWestern Digital WD3200AAJS SATA2 320GB (secondary/Flight Simulator 2004 running off WinXP Pro 32-bit, games video editing drive) 1xWestern Digital 500GB Black series SATA2 (Windows 7 64-bit: FSX is running off Win7; Windows XP Professional 32-bit) CASE: Antec Sonata III 500W OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit for FSX; Windows XP Pro 32-bit for other things.
June 6, 200520 yr Good call John! I had meant to state this in my post too but in my haste to get to the golf course this morning I totally forgot to add this. Oh, and yes, the braking is the same on a C172 as the big planes in real life, you do use left at right brakes to help turn at times. Again thank you for jumping in here and adding that important bit of information!Philip Olsonhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpg
