Alfredson007 Posted June 11, 2018 Posted June 11, 2018 So i assume that this plane has counter-clockwise rotating engine, so the primary rudder is left rather than right. Am i correct? Are there any options planned for western style engine? (if there are such in real life). I have no particular interest in Yak-52, however i am interested in tricycle configured piston engine trainer for DCS, but, while this might sound silly, i really don't like to screw up my muscle memory with counter-rotating engine...
IvanK Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 Welcome to the M14 :) Yep Left rudder for take off etc. High Speed start feeding in a little right rudder. Most 52's have a neutral point around 125 Knots.
Los Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 We will have to add this to the important list of things to worry about.:joystick:
msalama Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 i really don't like to screw up my muscle memory with counter-rotating engine... Most, if not all, Russian vintage single prop planes had counter clockwise rotating engines. You'll have to get used to it if the DCS WW2 subgame ever expands to the Caucasus... ;) The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

Same here! Would be nice if there was an option to reverse the rotation. Shouldn't be that hard, right?
msalama Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 Shouldn't be that hard, right? Not going to happen. Wouldn't be realistic, at least AFAIK. The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.
Paradox Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 From a real pilot's perspective it doesn't matter much. Just step on the ball and you'll have no worries about messing up any muscle memory.
freemind_fly Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) From a real pilot's perspective it doesn't matter much. Just step on the ball and you'll have no worries about messing up any muscle memory. The point here was not to keep the turn coordinated but the impact on muscle memory. Habits/good stick and rudder skills form by repetition and IMHO this should be consistent to what you usually fly. Edited September 3, 2019 by freemind_fly
lobo Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Do what it takes to keep the ball centered. Lobo's DCS A-10C Normal Checklist & Quick Reference Handbook current version 8D available here: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/172905/
