uist1 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Thinking about adding a curve to the rudder as it is so sensitive with my pedals. Is this like irl? If it is, I will learn and adapt. What works for you all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basco1 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 I'm using the same curve as I use in my P-51D,which is 20,but these curve values are quite personal,your best bet is to experiment,and do this gradually so you can get the chance to see any benefit.

Ala13_ManOWar Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Is this like irl? Nick Grey commented something about that in the P-47 Live by Philstyle. He said usually commercial simming pedals are short of movement compared to RL counterparts, so a curve is recommended in every Warbird. Anyway, it should be a personal choice depending on your hardware and taste. I personally should add, it's not only the short movement, usual (not all of them, but usually) rudder pedals IRL are really tough to move so you don't overcommand. That's quite a difference with commercial simming rudder pedals, so a curve is almost a must. S! "I went into the British Army believing that if you want peace you must prepare for war.

uist1 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 I’ll play about with it tonight. 20 sounds good. The moment I move them even slightly, the nose swings all over the place at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealius Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 I concur with 20. I run Saitek Pros, and I put a 20 curve on just about every single module I have. All the warbirds, plus jets like the Tomcat, as well as helos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapage Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I use CH pedals and I have about 20 curvature on most of the WW2 planes including the P47D. As people have said above its best to experiment and find what suits you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enduro14 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 20 here also with Saitek Pro's Intel 8700k @5ghz, 32gb ram, 1080ti, Rift S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basco1 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 After many hours of flight in the P-47D I've changed my rudder curve to 25,in fact I'm now using 25 on Pitch and Roll too,with a deadzone of 1 for each,just to take up any slight slack that might be there from within my hardware. These changes have really made the difference to me,I'm using 50% fuel in the tank on every flight,just so I can gauge the differences a little better each time I fly,so I've basically got the same set up on every flight.The aircraft now is very balanced,I should add these test flights are all with the aircraft trimmed out and operating the engine manifold at the respective 42 inches and RPM at 2550. The hardware I'm using is a TM Warthog combo and MFG Crosswind rudder pedals. Again,I hasten to add,what might work for me might not work for everyone else,but I truly believe these inputs create a good base to start with.

LeCuvier Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I don't use curves on any of my other fighters; but I found it impossible achieve precise manoeuvering with the P-47. Now I have set curves for pitch, roll and rudder to 18% and I can finally defeat the Focke-Wulf.

noisy_lightning Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I had to apply a curve of 20 to the toe brakes as well to help me from ground looping, far easier to taxi now! Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
