Serious issues with FBW 320 ground steering.

Featured Replies

Good evening,

So today i decided to install and fly the FBW 320 again after being absent for some time. But i have great problems controlling it during taxi. It's all set up as per FBW's documentation (Thrustmaster A320 stick/ Rudder/tiller not separated) but it gets out of contoll immediately when trying to turn.

Lets say i'd like to do a slight left turn, i gently turn the tiller left but the plane first starts veering to the right for about 10 degrees and then suddenly slams to the left ending in a constant overcorrection. Looking from the outside i can see the frontwheel following my steering commands exactly but the plane seems to slide anyway as described above. I usually end up in the grass.

I am sure that i'm missing something here. Maybe some can point me in the right direction?

Any tipps appreciated.

-Latest Experimental Version

-Thrustmaster 320 stick

-Set up as per Manual

-No issues with other planes

 

Best regards,

Tom

Tom,

Best advice I can give you is a possible deletion and a reinstall. 

If that does not work maybe try a different version to the experimental, ie the fully developed one.

Given that the experimental version is under constant development (to my knowledge) you may well be experiencing a glitch that FBW are currently working on.

Hope that helps.

Regards

From the FlyByWire documentation:

FlyByWire A32NX | Assistance Options
The A32NX is not compatible with the Microsoft Flight Simulator assistance feature "Auto-Rudder". It is required to deactivate this feature in MSFS.

We recommend turning off all assistance features in MSFS as they interfere with the A32NX systems.
