can't make a hard turn taxiing

[anlq]

Hi everyone,

Recenty I try flying the F15c, but in the ground I couldn't make a tight turn as other aircrafts despite pressing wheel brake. Did I miss something or it is designed to be like that ?

Answers are appreciated. :joystick:

Keep pressing "s" key while taxiing. Don't bend over! ;)

As Pedro said, use 's' key while turning. Holding S enables your tight wheel steering, otherwise you're only making 'fine' corrections. Don't use S when correcting the direction during take-off (you can try it for some funny moments).

 

And don't make the mistake of getting used to pressing S and then using it with Su27, too >_>

Seems I was wrong at some points

Otherwise you're just turning with your rudder

 

That is not true. You can easly see that u are able to make a turn without pressing s key but not that tight taxiing 1,2 or 3 km per/h That has nothing or just very little with ruder. ;)

to make a narrow turn on the ground you have to depress (and hold!) the "S" button on the keyboard. I have mapped this to a pushbutton on my joystick.

Only use this function (Nosegear Maneuvering Range) as long as you need to turn in a narrow radius and below 20 km/h. Else you will find yourself spinning around like a carrousel.

You say "Otherwise you're just turning with your rudder". That's not true. Without using the "S" key (Nose Gear Maneuvering Range) you can make make gentle turns with your nosewheel. The "S" key is only required for narrow turns
