Happened to me again today, consistently turning right. Tested flying E NE N NW W SW S SE with no change so I'm confident it's not the wind. Doesn't seem to be an issue for most people though, so I assume it's just something wacky with my machine.I also happened upon another thread today about rudder trim, Yaw Trim buttons, and the instructions there really helped counteract the weird turning. Just have to adjust it left or right if I notice a problem, and like I said it's a very minor annoyance. Still having a blast!Thanks all!

I believe you only lose XP for skipping on jobs (from the job board at airports) and not on the actual missions. I've attempted the photo mission three times, only finishing it the last. The first time it bugged out and wouldn't recognize that I'd landed at Dillingham, and the second time Flight crashed. I skipped on the last attempt. I had points deducted for missing photo opportunities like the photo he takes of Honolulu over the mountains, but not for skipping.

Thanks for the quick responses everyone. I've been fiddling around with the settings and assists (like propeller effects) but still no joy. It's strange indeed. Especially since it's unpredictable. Yesterday it was veering right consistently, but tonight it's been perfectly fine sometimes, going left sometimes, and going right other times.http://youtu.be/mQbja9TW3jY In the video you can see that the plane starts going right as I go full power and I have to keep the mouse left to keep the plane straight. As soon as I leave the ground it wants to go left instead and I have to keep the mouse right to compensate. No wind indicated. (Not included in the video is the part where I came back around and completely botched the landing B) ) I'm not sure about the rudder trim. The only thing rudder related I see in the options is "Rudder Left" and "Rudder Right" which I have bound to the "A" and "D" keys. Is their a knob in cockpit view for it? Maybe I'm accidentally hitting it when moving the camera about.Mouse and keyboard are the only things plugged in at the moment. I'm using a trackball, but I don't think that'd matter; if I can find my old normal mouse I'll give that a try.Perplexing. I'll try downloading and installing it on my laptop tomorrow and see if I have the same problem.

Hello all! I'm fairly new to flight simulators (I remember playing the old MS Flight Simulator on my dad's computer as a kid, mostly weaving around the buildings in Chicago and pretending I was in the death star trench shooting TIE fighters or something. ). I was hesitant to try out MS Flight since I've always been kind of intimidated by the complexity of flight sims, but I'm glad I decided to. I've been having a bunch of fun with it and even bought the adventure pack and the P-51.Anyway, I am having some problems controlling the planes. Specifically the airplane keeps wanting to go right, even with the mouse dead center and no keys pressed. In order to fly straight I have to keep the mouse crosshairs off to the left a couple inches. Happens with all planes (except the Maule which I do not have) and also with a joystick and an Xbox360 pad. Leaving the stick centered results in turning to the right. I've tried it without wind, wind from the front, wind from the rear, and wind from the sides, with no change.Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on what's causing it? It's a minor issue and won't diminish my overall enjoyment of the game, but it makes landing a bit more difficult
