Volocity with T-Flight X - so unstable that it's unflyable!

Featured Replies

I am using a Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas X and as soon as I get this beast 10 feet in the air, it starts wobbling like a a wound-down top, about to fall over.  If it was an amusement park ride I'd get off and puke.  And I have no idea why.  Also, when it starts, I'm in the back seat.

Am I missing something? 

Are there instructions on how to fly it?  Is there some auto-stabilizer switch I'm ignoring?

I have seen videos of it flying straight and level.  That has not been my experience.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

Same for me! I was so excited to fly a helicopter type of craft until it got into the air.

I also tried flying it from a non-airport, where you select any place on the map and you start in the air. The moment you start in the air it wobbles.

I took the advice of https://flightsim.to/ where you must turn off all flight assistance for their helicopters. It didn't do anything. 

This built-in MSFS aircraft is unflyable.

I use a new Thrustmaster Hotas One.

  • PC is Windows 10 (I'll do Windows eleven in 2025 after millions have sorted out Microsoft's post launch beta stuff).
  • i9-10900K @3.70 Ghz
  • 64 GB RAM
  • 400MBPS internet
  • and (don't hate me) a SAMSUNG  49-Inch CRG9 Curved Gaming Monitor, Black, QHD, 120Hz

I'm going to learn how to install flightsim.to helicopters and their program, so I can fly helos in MSFS.

I'm glad MSFS is at least trying with this Velocity drone thing that fails--it means they might be working on built-in helos soon.
