Sheedee Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 So i am on the active runway with my Cessna and when i start to roll... the plane starts veering towards the right instead of going straight ahead...so annoying!... Any tips suggestions as for why this might be happening...and a possible solution?... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Fairly normal because of engine torque. It's up to the pilot to keep it as straight as possible. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no wind she shouldn't go straight either, due the various moments she should actually turn to the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilotposer Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Maybe your joystick needs calibrating. Sometimes this happens to me and I find that the joystick is a little out of wack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirkDP Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Hi, Here's a video explaining the propeller forces, which on a CW turning propeller make the aircraft (mostly) veer to the left. BTW, they can be turned on or off in the FS2004 realism settings. Regards, DDP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
