dbauder Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I recently bought/installed MSFS and to my surprise/delight, the whole process was pain-free, mostly. My only problem is that BOTH jets and props want to bank left. I can counteract with opposite aileron or rudder input but it takes a lot of input. I have an older CH yoke (15 y/o), rudder and throttle quadrant and I programmed them for the new sim without problem. I calibrated the yoke and it works fine in FSX (I'm never giving up my FSX...) Flight controls are set to 'modern'. I tried 'legacy' and turned off torque and p-factor, no help, so I went back to modern. Maybe it's simply time for a new yoke and I'm itching to pull out the credit card and upgrade to Honeycomb, but I figured I'd see if y'all had any suggestions...

g7rta Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) Hi, I had a CH Yoke LE for 15-20 years and it worked well. However, I now have the Honeycomb & love it (except for one little problem I get with the short Ethernet cable) but the yoke is fantastic. Other yokes are also available of course, like this interesting one.. I might be tempted to change my honeycomb for this one day! Just a thought though.. is there any chance you may have a duplicate control set up, causing the planes to bank to the left? I’ve been there myself, only to remember I also had an old joystick plugged in. One thing I’d definitely do.. check your keyboard bindings. This has come up on the forum before, where one of the keys was causing a yoke to move to the left.

lnuss Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 You might check for a fuel imbalance. In FSX just a few gallons of difference between the left and right could cause this, and it generally came from a saved flight. So when you first boot up, before flying, check your fuel is equal on both sides. I don't know if that happens in the new sim, but it's worth a try. Larry N.

dbauder Posted March 17, 2022 Author Share Posted March 17, 2022 Thanks very much for the good advice. It's not a fuel imbalance. Steve, I'll check my keyboard bindings. Also, that VelocityOne yoke/throttle combo might be what I need instead of going the Honeycomb route. We'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out it was the left pedal causing it. It was older like yours so I just chalked it up to old age. Got some new stuff (Honeycomb Alpha) and Logitech Pedals. No issues now.

johnost Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 You may have tried this already, and I don't know how strong the left turn is, but have you tried Aileron and Rudder Trim adjustments? Aileron Left: Ctrl + 4 " Rgt: Ctrl + 6 Rudder Left: Ctrl + 9 " Rgt: Ctrl + ENTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagorandy Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Are you able to disconnect the rudder pedals and try a flight to see if the problem goes away?

neilfb Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Try Ctrl-6 this will maybe help, keep your finger pressed on both keys. Ctrl-4 to go left. This trims your ailerons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulcan Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 IMO this tendency to roll left is exaggerated in FS2020 and was in FSX (and probably earlier versions). I have flown light aircraft both solo and 2 up and have never experienced a need to maintain right aileron to maintain straight and level when in the cruise. IRL single engine light aircraft have the engine off-set to minimise the effect of prop wash, I wonder if this is not correctly simulated in FS2020?
