PA44 unflyable on my system. Edited.

Featured Replies

I don't get it the Mooney flies fine but the PA44 is just one frustrating flight after another.  I'm about to shelve or delete it.  When I take off the plane noses down I immediately have to put on a huge amount of trim every takeoff.  And the autopilot is a suicide machine.  Sometimes it grabs the NAV line but usually not.  When it does grab the NAV line if I hit ALT hold it dives to the ground half of the time.  I'm not a happy camper.  I moved half of my addon's out of the community folder to see if that helped not yet I guess I'll move the rest out.  The plane is unflyable on my system.  😪

Make sure you set elevator trim little below "N". I agree autopilot is rough, but in my short trials it works ok. I think it just behave as default autopilot would

Ok I'm having a decent flight but there's something strange.  When the flight loads and it's time to hit "Ready to Fly" button and I press the fly button I'm on the runway as usual but the engines are shut down.  I've been hitting Cntrl E to start the engines.  This may be the problem.  This latest flight instead of hitting the "Ready to fly" button I let the loading screens run all the way through and the engines were running when I spawned on the runway unlike before.  So if I hit ready to fly the engines are not running and if I let it load till your in the cockpit the engines are running by default.  Very strange but this flight is doing well.  I'll experiment some more it will be a pain to wait for all the screens to load but I might have to.
