  1. Sorry about that (I had enable signature checked and just didn't notice) and yes this was an autoland. This was also a no wind landing. I have since done a "Ctrl+K" to disable my Saitek X52 Flight Control System while on approach and landed on RW30L at KMSP with a perfect landing and roll-out right down the centerline with no weaving whatsoever. My brakes also worked without problems. I'll try other airports with or without my flight controls enabled and report back. I will also do another axis calibration just prior to landing.

  2. I'm sorry, the first files name is "Take Ownership" from Microsofts downloads website. Not "Take Control".
  3. I had a simular problem and realized that the path was incorrect for the loader. Since I have Windows 7, I had to go to "browse" and had to add (x86) after the word "Program Files". It is important to NOT place a space between Program Files and (x86). Otherwise it will not work. This method however depends on where your main FS9 folder is located. Mine is located in Program Files(x86) and not in Program Files. I also added the "Take Control of Your Files" download availabe from the Microsoft website which I understand helps self loaders locate FS9 and allows modification of files by the program. Additionally, I downloaded the latest Redistributable File from Microsofts FS 2004 website. They provide instructions for each and I can't emphasise enough to follow their instructions to the letter! You will have to install as Administrator. I hope this resolves the problem.
  4. During the landing roll-out the aircraft makes shallow S-turns all the way down to the full stop. Additionally, the aircraft does not follow the runway centerline. I have considered just turning off the autopilot early on (after touchdown) and attempt to provide directional control manually, but I'm relatively certain that this would not be acceptable in the real world during an autoland. I'm going to try doing a flight control re-calibration just prior to the approach phase and see if there is an issue there. I use a Saitek X52 Flight Control System.
  5. I've been using Flight Simulator 2004 For nearly 7 years and never lost my brakes before. Upon coming to a complete stop in the MD-11 using the auto-brakes, I then switched the Auto-brake to the off position. When I began to taxi to the gate I noticed that my wheel brakes were not working nor was the "brake" regestering in the lower left corner of the screen. No matter what I did, there was no correcting this problem. Needless to say I had to just exit the program. I also noticed that I had to recalibrate my rudder axis since the aircraft would slowly turn slightly right requiring constant correction to the left. There was no wind and I purposely keep a small 'dead zone' on the rudder axis. I am using my Saitek X-52 and it is testing fine. This has happened every time I land so far. Anyone else have this happen? If so, any answer as to a fix?
