February 26, 20188 yr Has anyone run across a useable bandaid for the directional ground control problems currently irritating a lot of XP11 users. Some models, made for XP10 are encountering difficulties and others, made specifically for XP11 are even worse. While we wait for LR to get back to the nitty gritty, there may be a fixit out there we can all use.
February 26, 20188 yr My understanding is the wheel turning has being tweaked so tah t teh turn rate is slower, but it wont work if teh plane has not being saved in teh 11.1 planemaker, which may break other things.
February 26, 20188 yr If you're referring to the instability under even the lighter crosswinds then there's always stability augmentation on ground at normal taxi speeds or up to, say, Vs0... Plane Maker has to be used, Expert / Stab Augmentation section, and then the low speed and high speed regimes being limited by that chosen limit speed ( say, Vs0 ) until which the yaw stability augmentation is programmed to maintain 0º yaw rate as much as possible. Result will be a lot more steadier aircraft, depending also on how the parameters are set but with a rudder that will be "everywhere" in windy days :-) I posted about it some ( many ) Moons ago ( maybe 4-5 yrs ago in XP10 times ) but I'll have to check my post history to dig the right post :-) P.S.: Found at least one instance of a post where I talked about how I set it in Plane Maker: Edited February 26, 20188 yr by jcomm Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
February 26, 20188 yr Author Been flying taildraggers all my life and never had this much trouble staying straight on the runway. While I recognize LR's thinking, they seem to have gone a bit overboard. I've tried most of the adjustments recommended in "planemaker" to no avail, even the counter rotating props. My takeoffs have not been a thing of beauty - hopefully nobody's watching.
