Ground Taxi Friction

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Anyone know a way to make the taxi on ground better friction wise I feel the aircraft really slides on the ground and doesn't feel realistic, I have dynamic friction in from fsuipc, however, I don't know how to increase the dynamic friction or how to add an entry so the increase dynamic friction only effects the majestic aircraft and none others.

 

Thanks

Ryan Gregg

Fsuipc friction will do nothing for the Q400 as all the physics are done outside of FSX, including taxi.

Also not sure what you mean by "sliding", do you mean skidding sidewards or just how easy the aircraft rolls? Being a turboprop it will taxi rather smartly just using the beta range and you don't really need to touch the brakes either. By default aircraft in FSX need waaaay too much power to overcome initial ground friction and start rolling.
