  1. Thanks! Yes, if you could I would really appreciate it. Like I said, I'm going to hold off on XP 10 for a while.
  2. XP didn't like the .acf at all. Claimed it was corrupted, etc. I'm on 9.70. I know 9.21 and prior planes will not work on 9.7. I don't know about XP 10 but I would assume that they won't work either.HyFlyer: I'm not on V10 yet. When I read that Austin was completely re-writing the code I saw heavy seas ahead so I figured I would hang back on shore until the worst of the storm is over.
  3. Thanks much. I'll give it a try. In the meantime I downloaded the latest version of N9522S. He has made some nice changes in the flight model and it flys pretty good but still has the left bankiing tendency.Correction to my previous post: I stated that the trim wheel parameter so it didn't take so many turns for full nose down trim. The parameter is not measured in turns but in "seconds until full deflection". Of course the more seconds it takes the more turns it will take also. The stock 172SP was set to something ridiculous like 20 seconds. I cranked it down to 10. N9522S has it set to even less, 8 seconds, but that feels a bit touchy to me so I think I will bump it up to 10.I will report back after trying your .acf, GoranM. Ken
  4. Did the .acf file work? If so, could you post it again?The left banking problem did not begin with XP 10. I have it in 9.70 also however it is not there in the stock 9.21rc that came on the DVD. I've calibrated and recalibrated, hooked up a MS Sidewinder and even disconnected all of the joysticks and used the keyboard. The left banking is still there in the single prop planes. As a band-aid, I defined one of the toggle buttons on the Saitek yoke for aileron trip. In addition, I went into plane-maker and put an aileron trim indicator on the panel. It's small and even after expanding the size with MSPaint, still isn't that readable but it does help setting the trim for takeoff.BTW, on the elevator trim wheel, I adjusted the trim wheel parameters in plane-maker so that it doesn't require so many revolutions of the wheel to go from full-down to full-up trim. This might help the Saitek trim wheel also (I use electric trim with a yoke toggle button). I also set the center of gravity on the plane more forward since at cruise I was almost maxed out on nose down trim (even before the rotations adjustment). Definitely not prototypical as model railroaders would say.If you have never used plane-maker, you should give it a try. It is really easy to make simple modifications such as moving instruments and controls around on a panel.Any help you can give on the Cessna .acf would be appreciated. Thanks.Ken
