learpilot Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Does anyone know in the flightmodel.cfg file what controls the radius of the ground steering? It seems to me there is a complete understeer in the Longitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
learpilot Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 So in the .cfg file for any particular aircraft there must be a setting you can change to make the turn radius better.Any Thoughts ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger1962 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Have you tried Dakfly's Longitude mod: https://flightsim.to/file/3655/asobo-cessna-citation-longitude-flight-dynamics-modifications-project-version-1-0 This cures a multitude of handling and performance issues in one easy step.

mikeandpatty Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 In the aircraft.cfg file under [CONTACT_POINTS] is line (only an example!) point.0=1, 24.50, 0.00, -4.35, 1181.1, 0, 0.6349, 35, 0.3000, 2.8, 0.8100, 10.0, 10.0, 0, 260.0, 260.0 the 8th figure (i.e., 35) is the max angle of nose wheel steering. Change it in increments as desired. Also rudder effectiveness in the [Flight_Tuning] section has an influence on taxi performance even if at low speed. In addition, rediculous as it sounds, HARD AILERON INPUT as well as steering improves taxi turn performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
