  1. Found an odd behaviour of the tank selectors. When selected 'On' either engine get their fuel from *both* fuel tanks. I assumed that left engine will be fed by left fuel tank and so on. Selectors to crossfeed works perfect.

     

    So I used the logging of FSUIPC to have a peek whats going on. Logging reads that fuel selector uses key parameter FUEL_SELECTOR_ALL (FUEL_SELECTOR_2_ALL for right sel.) when set to 'On'. Furthermore found an other confirmation in 'InitVars.xml' (inside RASDukeT.cab - panel folder). Fuel selector parameters will be set to FUEL_SELECTOR_(2)_ALL when system not in 'cold&dark' mode.

     

    Is this correct modelled according to the real world plane?

    BTW RA's B60 shows the same behaviour.


  2. First off sorry for that double post. Had a delay with my browser/network, so I thought it hasn't been send.

     

    Me says you are seeing a FSX-based issue with the actual force that nosewheel can take or handle. You may receive that single engine problem with a lot of planes, especially when the arm of that nosewheel placement in regard to ones of the engines is rather small. The bigger planes sometimes sort of skid their NW over the taxiways when turning, so they may more or less receive the same odd behaviour, though not as emphasized.

     

    Ok, and there is no way to tune some kind of friction or inertia in a/c config files to reduce this behaviour?


  3. Hi Folks,

    I do some single engine training on the RealAir Dukes. It's really a joy to fly this bird with single engine - till I'm back on the ground and try to taxiing. It's not possible (for me) to do a straight taxiing, 'cause the plane begins to spin around. I use the toe brakes steering method. Didn't test this with rudder steering yet.

     

    Any suggestions?
