L-39 nosewheel steering

What kind of corrections do I need to make to add nosewheel steering to the L-39?
 
In each aircraft folder there should be a folder labeled something like "nose wheel steering" that contains an alternate aircraft.cfg file with the needed changes.
 
Differential breaking works fine here but yeah they got an alternative .cfg. Good chaps there at Lotus.:ernae:
 
Give differential braking a try. If you use your keyboard as your rudder pedals, I find differential braking to be much easier to control the plane on the ground.

* and - on numpad by default.
 
I have rudder pedals and it still doesn't work for crap. It's a great aircraftm I just think it's an FSX limitation. I'm very accustomed to RW aircraft without nosewheel steering; I fly a Cirrus. This L-39 just doesn't do it right, and I'd rather have nosewheel steering.
 
the simplest solution for me is to simply edit the nosewheel contact point in the aircraft cfg
the steering angle is set to 180 (castering) , change it to 65

thus...

point.0= 1.000, 12.9, 0.000, -6.650, 1600.000, 0.000, 0.710, 65, 0.10, 3.50, 0.7, 4.200, 4.000, 0, 225, 224
 
tigisfat, are you sure it's not an axis calibration problem for your pedals? I had some issues with the brakes grabbing a while back, and had to recalibrate my Saitek pedals in the game controllers panel. After that, it went back to working well. I'm not having any problems making smooth, fairly tight-radius turns in the L-39.
