caleb Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 In FSX-SE, when flying a mission (probably in Free Flight too, don't know how to really test it since it happens part way through the flight, and I usually don't do my flying in FSX (I use P3D for that)) the elevators and ailerons will mess up. Part way through the flight (it worked fine for the start of the flight) the full 100% movement of my Saitek yoke is only maybe 5-10% moment of the aircraft's elevators/ailerons in the sim. (the sim aircraft's yoke moves the whole way in the VC, but the elevators and the plane won't move the whole way.) I think it happens in all aircraft but I know the default F-18 and 747 for sure. The missions that I know it happens in is the 747 Test Flight mission and the rocket launch guard mission. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks very much. This is very mysterious to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Sounds like the AP is being activated. Try hitting Z, and listen for the AP cancellation sound. Usually a series of beeps of some sort. Or it could be a mission commanded hydraulic system failure. If it's that, all you can do is declare an emergency and find someplace to land. Let us know what happens:) Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again! Sgt, USMC, 10 years proud service, Inactive reserve now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No AP is on. It happens on two different missions, and the same missions work fine in FSX boxed, so I don't think it is a mission command. Thanks.

caleb Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 It has been fixed. I needed to change the Co-Existence value in the Registry Editor so that the FSX-SE directory in AppData\Roaming could be created.
