A2A C182 unflyable in P3Dv3 - anyone else?
Sounds like a few people have had issues. Clearly this is a fantastic airplane when it works well, but some systems don't agree with it. Following some suggestions I have assigned my controls to FSUIPC and have seen a dramatic improvement - no more lurching to the left. While I would not describe flight as "docile", it is no longer a battle. Thanks all.

When you guys say it is a realistic flight model - do you mean that you have a constant fight with rudder and joystick to maintain level flight? I can't take my eyes off it for a second or it will lurch out of control, nightmare if trying to look around the cockpit or change a setting. Will try with keyboard/mouse but i think I disabled the mouse for FSiPanel.

Tried fiddling with sensitivity - doesn't seem to help (usual position is max sensitive). It is the native P3D version. Have been in the hangar - no difference. Have set weather to calm - no difference. Really think there is some incompatibility going on - I might be a poor pilot but this is not as a beast as domkle pointed out, just wondered if anyone else had encountered this.

A2A C182 unflyable in P3Dv3 - anyone else?
Thanks guys, but I think something in my system is not playing nice with the 182. I have tried keeping her on the ground until the speed is well past normal takeoff, but as soon as she is in the air the left lurch (serious lurch) happens. I have the MFG crosswind rudder, which is supposed to be top notch, certainly works for all the other aircraft. The jets fly fine and other GA fly fine, it just seems to be the 182 which upsets the system - I have also had my first freeze since reinstalling while flying the 182.

A2A C182 unflyable in P3Dv3 - anyone else?
Ok, before you all come at me with rocks - I am not an experienced pilot, I am not an experienced simmer. That being said, I can fly most addon GA planes - favorites at the moment are Quest Kodiak and Ant's Eaglet. Something in my system does not agree with the A2A 182. On takeoff it lurches to the left and needs almost full rudder to stay in the middle of the runway. In the air it tries to lurch to the left and up causing stalls if I lose my attention. Trying to land is impossible because of the constant need to work the rudder to the extremes (this is probably more difficult for me as I am not an expert). The issues prevent it from loading in FSiPanel as it stalls before it can be released to my control. I have tried multiple reinstalls, I have tried virtually every trim setting (serious nose down seems to stop the upward lurch but results in a dive if I don't keep on top of the rudder) and I have looked for similar posts. There are a few posts of similar problems with the 182, some fixed others not so sure. It doesn't seem to happen with the 172. I am tempted to buy the 172 to see if it is better but it is expensive and I do not want to waste more money if this is a problem with my system. Anyone else had similar issues?

KDFW Greenery
Thanks Guys, I discovered that KDFW had been disabled by vector AEC. When I enabled it, all is as it should be. Also found excess greenery at KDEN and YMML (so far - maybe more to come). Both have also been fixed by enabling AEC. Trevor.

KDFW Greenery
Hi Guys, Couldn't see this mentioned before. Just tried my first approach to KDFW and discovered a small jungle on the runway. Anyone else seen this? I haven't seen it anywhere else. Running P3D 2.5, FTX Global, Vector (KDFW disabled in AEC) and Pilots mesh. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B737NjyuerZXTDlCenBHRmFwSGc/view?usp=sharing Thanks, Trevor.
