Alexrey Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 I've noticed a few times that my flight controls become unresponsive during flight, but I don't know what keys I pressed to make them like that or how I get it back to normal. What I mean by unresponsive is this (I'm using a keyboard BTW): I press A (roll left key) for about 1/10 of a second and nothing happens (but under normal circumstances it gives a slight roll to the left), but if I keep it in for 1/2 a second my plane suddenly does a violent roll. It's almost as if it builds up energy and then lets it all out in one spurt, instead of letting it out in a controlled manner like normal. It's really frustrating because in a dogfight I lose velocity VERY quickly from all the violent buildups. Does anyone know what could be wrong? Thanks guys.
GGTharos Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 Sounds like you have an autopilot mode on. Edit: Go PC :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
Boberro Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 Maybe it is application anomalies... Example rare but yesterday when I was flying brick (Su-25T) i did steer right and something went wrong that plane immadietly banked to right, even rescue autopilot (Alt-3) couldn't force to level. Plane wasn't hurt, I guess it is simple rare anomalies which can happen in any game in my accident. Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
Pilotasso Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 I found out accidentaly that engaging auto pilot and let it stabilize in the F-15 corrects the trimming innacuracy problem. :) .
Alexrey Posted May 26, 2008 Author Posted May 26, 2008 No it can't be autopilot because that doesn't have a key assigned to it anymore. A has been assigned to roll left.

Alexrey Posted May 26, 2008 Author Posted May 26, 2008 Try to task out of the game and come back when this occurs. I don't think that would be such a good idea when playing online, since I'd most probably crash because of waiting a minute or two to task out of LOFC and then get back in again. :cry: EDIT: I found out that I had auto-level flight (or whatever it's called) on. Problem solved! :)
