View Full Version : Flight1 Cessna 152 - Is the handling THIS bad?!

After reading glowing reviews on both major Flight Sim sites I decided to download and purchase your Cessna 152 as it is the one real-world aircraft I have flown which isn't in my Flight Sim hanger.

The most important feature for me in FS modelling is an accurate Flight Dynamics package. So what happened to your Cessna 152??!

This aircraft has the sloppiest handling I have ever experienced in any payware aircraft. You literally have to count to 10 before the 152 reacts to any control inputs! This makes it virtually unflyable in all but the cruise regime. This is NOTHING LIKE the real-world aircraft which aint a sports car but neither is it a dog.

I have downloaded the FD patch from your website but it makes no difference to the atrocious handling.

Before I decide whether to email for a refund is there anything I can try or do to make this aircraft fly properly?

On a positive note (!!) your latest V36 Bonanza exhibits excellent Flight Dynamics so I am a little perplexed as to how the 152 model could be so far off the real-world flight characteristics.

Thanks

Adam

PS: I am using CH Flight Yoke and Pedals calibrated correctly using the CH calibration tool. FS sensitivities were tried at different levels to achieve some level or control but had little effect on the overall poor handling.

Hi Adam!

DreamFleet only made the panel and gauges for that C152 package. Everything else is done by guys at Flight1. You should contact them about the Flight Dynamics issue on Flight1 forums at:

Hi there

Must be something wrong with your setup either in the C152 as loaded or in its compatability with your machine. It flies true to the real world on my machine. Seek support from Flight1, there must be a reason...

The Flight1 Cessna 152 is outstanding. I have more hours in the same plane than I'd like to admit.
