May 6, 20233 yr I've had this problem as long as I've tried flying float planes--if there's a little wind the plane becomes impossible to steer on the water, even with the water rudders extended. Any fixes out there or any word about when the water physics will be fixed? Edited May 6, 20233 yr by tjackson585
May 6, 20233 yr I've encountered that as well...not sure of the fix. Water physics are basically non existent in this sim. I think the water is only 2 ft deep. At least p3d and XP have bathymetry. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

I found that turning on the "Take-off Auto-Rudder" in the Piloting Assistance menu solves the issue with the uncontrollability of the floatplanes when floating in windy conditions (apparently it takes away all wind effects when on the ground/water).

That works. It would be best if I didn't have to change assistance settings on the water though. :/ The PC-6, though--even in still air, that will not steer on the water at all.
