Carenado M20 ground/taxi issue request for mod

Featured Replies

Not sure if it exists, but I have not been able to find any suggestions for this...I have the latest version of the Carenado M20 (Mooney). I really like it, but if I have any light crosswind, I find it very hard to keep on the taxi line.

I believe the wind keeps pushing on the tail rudder and pushing the nose. I've searched for tire friction mods, etc. in an effort to add contact points for a community folder which contains flight_model.cfg file.

I know one does not exist in the official MSFS folder, so I know I need to create a new one for the community folder.

Anyway, I cannot find an existing file (flightsim.to) or suggestions to create one...

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm willing to give them a try...

This file is encrypted, so it cannot be changed by the user...  Suggest contacting Carenado and see if they are willing to do something..

Or, if you are the adventurous kind, you could start with a flight model file from an airplane that you like and adapt it...  Here a quick example of the Rob Young Bonanza flight model for use in the M20.  The wheels and the initial viewpoint need adjusting, but other than that, it flies OK as a test.
