Wheel not turning

Featured Replies

Hello! My wheel on the ground is not working since I cannot turn at all. Weard thing is that my rudder is workin.

Aircraft effected are those that were bought, namely Lear 36a and freeware C47 (the awesome one ofc!). No issues with default aircraft.

This issue affects FSX as well.

Are you referring to MJ's C-47 Skytrain V.3Beta?  I have turning tailwheels on both V.2 and V.3Beta.  Have you made any adjustments to the [contact points] in the aircraft.cfg?

Give this a try in yours.  Sorry, since your other ones that don't work are payware, you may have to check on their forums

or contact their "Help" person.

Bloody hell the majestic is affected as well. Need to figure out whats wrong.


I dont know how, but the issue for C-47 has been fixed.  For the Lear 35a I had to press Steer Lock on the centre console and it worked. (havent read the manual...)

the majestic is probably the same - there is an unknown button that I need to press :)!

 

CHeers!
