Turn Coordinator: realistic?

Featured Replies

Hi everyone,

In FSX/P3D, the ball of the Turn Coordinator was way too reactive and its movement was exaggerated.

Now in MSFS, it has a lot of inertia. When I do* a 10-20 degrees bank turn, the ball sticks to the center without the need to action the rudders... I think the exaggeration is now the other way?

* with Just Flight Piper, Carenado Mooney, Milviz C310.

What do you think mates?

Many light aircraft can make shallow turns and remain coordinated. 

 

 

 

Some planes are very gentle in yaw, especially into a 10 degree bank.

The lithmus test are climbing turns: (max angle 20 degrees). Turn right= lots of rudder required.

Turn left= not much left rudder required (sometimes even slight right rudder! Depending on horsepower/attitude)
