Messerschmitt 108 Taifun released!

Wonderful model and great fun but is anyone else getting a constant, slight roll to the left regardless of any amount of input to rudder or aileron trim? Don't know if it's a balance issue or torque modelled but I am unable to counteract this slight roll.
Thanks for any help

Woody, since the aircraft has no adjustable aileron and rudder trim it is pre-trimmed to fly straight and level at cruise speed.
Is it by chance a joystick calibration issue?

I will check but haven't had any issues with any other planes.

Ok, if it turns out to not be a joystick issue we can talk farther.
The pre-trim is editable but requires some basic knowledge of editing XML files.
 
I have tried a number of different things and the most likely suspect is the rudder null zones. (it's a saitek twist rudder). I have increased the null zones and although not completely eliminated it is certainly better. I will continue to tweak around with these and see how I go. thanks for the help Mathias.

p.s. hope this cures it beacause I know nothing on editing xml files:icon_lol::icon_lol::icon_lol:

Nothing to worry about, I can easily pass on an edited file to you.
Another thing, you can savely exclude the influence of wind, right?

Oh, and here's a hot day over the desert. :)

Bonjour Mathias,

Presently downloading and really looking forward to my first flight... :jump:

THANKS for your talent and the countless hours of pleasure that it provides us.

P.S.: Now, you can concentrate on the Bf-110... :icon_lol:

Cheers,

Fleurdelys
 
Just a quick public 'thankyou' to Mathias for all his one to one help in the background with the tiny niggle I was having with this aircraft. All sorted now.
Thank you Mathias great customer support.

Hi Mathias,

Just finished my first hop in your gorgeous rendition of the Taifun...:applause:

It is superb, as was to be expected (I don't mean to put the creativity bar too high on your next endeavours as you've already set it higher by yourself)... :sleep:

Will there be an update for an historically correct tail markings (where applicable) of the wartime versions. Your's are politically correct but a lot of us simmers are historical buffs and mean, speaking for myself (and probably others too), no disrespect to those who prefer civilianized versions of the plane.

Well, got to get back to flying this lady.

Cheers :icon29:

Fleurdelys
 
I really havn't put any thought yet into providing the historically correct markings for the both paint schemes that use it, but I'm sure Alessandro will post something very soon. I would suspect someone will post a headsup once something along that lines pops up. :salute:
 
Thanks Mathias,

I gather that it shouldn't be very long before we see wartime repaints coming in on this one.

I forgot to mention in my previous post how much I appreciated the option of "Just Fly" as compared to "real Flight" and its intricacies which is a lot more than I'm usually willing to do when hopping around airfields.

That should be available for most planes which cater to the "real pilots" among us to start with, I guess... :kilroy:

Fleurdelys
 
I must say I like the solution you put up there, the logo fits in there nicely, way better than the empty spot and still pretty much politically correct. In my opinion the best compromise I have seen yet!
 
Very nice Mathias :salute:

I have just enjoyed a quick flight. Downloading the paintkit as I type. I might try a RAF livery.

Cheers

Swiss Flight

Just enjoyed a nice early morning flight from Wengen Laken to Lugano Switzerland in the Swiss painted version. A truly great aircraft to fly worth every penny, thanks again Mathias.:salute:
 
OK without reading the manual how do I start this thing, I lovethe challenge of starting aircraft without reading manuals, as if I'm jumping into one and "borrowing it" but what am I doing wrong?


And Bruce what airfield is that?
