FSLabs airbus ground steering behaviour

Recommended Posts

In the beginning was challenging, true. But after a few days everything went smooth. Assigned sticky and in combination with rudder I am 100% on the center line and no overshooting. What I like and according to real bus drivers, once parking brake is released bus is slowly rolling by itself and I just need to add  necessary inputs. Only issue I have and it is a bit annoying are thrust leavers. I read million times and still can't make it work is how to make null zones etc. So basically still using reversers with F2.... Other than that, love it, specially for manual flying after take off or even 6000 ft on visual approach, precise, stable, accurate...

It takes a bit to get the hang of it but i can do it well most of the time.  Tapping the "," key rather than pressing it constantly seems to help.

The main issue i have is pitch and roll seem very sluggish to respond whilst the rudder is ridiculously over sensitive. This is with a "twisting" flight stick. In all my other aircraft such as the PMDG i don't have this issue.

It’s very unforgiving of ham fisted taxiing but if you take it slowly then you’ll be fine. You can get nice tight turns with the tiller in the Airbus. 

More of an issue for me with my hardware is the much debated brake sensitivity. I simply cannot brake this bird smoothly in a straight line and the only way to fix it is to assign the left and right brake to one pedal. 

I’ve spoken to some of my pilot teams about this and there’s no definitive answer on Airbus braking sensitivity in real life.

Hi Ben,

Hope you are well.

I am also struggling with my braking in the FSLabs, if you have time can you explain how you mapped both brakes to one pedal please? I’m having trouble doing it myself.

Thanks,

Jonathan
