2 seaters

When I try a 2 seater it seems to want to continually bank to the left, is this built into the game or just one of the quirks (yes I tried the BE2c, no pun intended) of the game.

All the single seaters I have flown so far have flown wings level "hands off".

I have so far flown the SE5a and Albatross DII & III, and the BE2c, FE2b and the F2B.

I am using the cyborg evo stick, and I have changed from 2 seaters to single seaters in the game to check if it is a problem with the stick.

I am flying using easy flight model at the moment.

Thanks

Many craft have torque or other foibles some more than others but there is nothing about 2 seaters that is much worse than single seaters (apart from being heavier or slower often although not always).

However no aircraft have been tested with easy flight model.

So can you put it on realistic and try again please and let us know?

Thanks
 
Rugbyfan-
I use the same joystick and noticed this problem a year ago- it made takeoffs really challenging. I have TrackIR so I was able to look behind and, lo and behold, with the twist stick neutral the rudder was fully deflected. Sometimes the stick starts out in that position (don't know why). Simple solution was to just fully deflect the rudder to both sides before I take off- it actually makes me do a pre-flight check just like real life. So now, before I advance power I twist back and forth twice. If I really like the pilot, I also check six to be sure.Hope this helps.
 
I have the same stick to and don't have any issues in realistic FM

However yes one thing though you MUST do prior to take off each time (and in other sims I find) :
make sure you circle the joystick, and the throttle and rudder full left/right - the saitek needs to do that to auto calibrate!
