Corrigan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Anyone else notice this? I can swear that the 21 tends to roll slightly left on its own. Several of my flying buddies say they've noticed this too, and I've checked that it's not my controls. So: bug, feature or imagination?

xxJohnxx Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 A lot of aircraft do that, especially without aileron trim. On a more realistic controll device, with less recentering force it und would be hard to notice I guess.

Corrigan Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Maybe it empties the fuel tanks asymmetrically? But they're all pretty central, I think, so that shouldn't make much of a difference.

xxJohnxx Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Same here, I even recalibrated my stick and it still does it. I wonder why. Mine is rolling to the right as well.

As I wrote in the OP, I have checked my equipment. I had a monitoring program open beside the sim when I saw this behaviour, and the roll axis was sitting at 50.00%.

I had a monitoring program open beside the sim when I saw this behaviour, and the roll axis was sitting at 50.00%. This is quite intresting then. Because mine is rolling to the right most of the time, and I have to correct to the left. Not sure what could be causing this.

Corrigan Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 I guess it's possible I may be misremembering the direction, but I'm 90% sure the left wing dips for me. Maybe it depends on loadout. Win10 x64 | SSDs | i5 2500K @ 4.4 GHz | 16 GB RAM | GTX 970 | TM Warthog HOTAS | Saitek pedals | TIR5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I get right roll mostly, but sometimes left roll. I figured they were trying to simulate some effect or a quirk of the aircraft. The roll might be engine/airflow induced. I'm not sure what effect the nose intake has on the aerodynamics, and whether it causes a vortex out the nose that spills over the wings, causing the roll. Best regards, Tango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldur Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Another thing I've noticed from the beginning: It does even yaw a bit, at least on the ground. In my test missions, there's absolutely no wind at all, fully clear sky, default temps etc. But the MiG always needs a little bit of left rudder no matter what. It's extremely obvious while braking.

Flamin_Squirrel Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Remember that trim is there to prevent the pilot getting tired from constantly having to apply pressure on the stick; it isn't there so the plane will fly straight and level hands off (especially a fighter).

ff4life4 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Okay I stated earlier that I had no issues with roll... until now. Now it always dips to the left, and the slip ball is saying i need right rudder. I have not changed anything. I was flying online last night, same loadout, and I had to respawn a new A/c, and then it started. What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know if you have the mig 21, but There is no aileron or rudder trim. Only pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
