JetCat Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Hi Pilots, Has anyone this problem too? Every landing goes smooth and almost perfect, the aircraft is smoothly and perfectly rolling down the runway after touchdown - but as soon as the aircraft starts to brake, it begins erratically yawing to the left or right side and crashes outside the runway seconds later. The rudder is not giving enough counterforce against how strong the brakes are pulling the aircraft to the left or right side when typing the W button, and almost after all landings the plane is already crashed before switching to nose wheel steering ~70 knots. Almost all of my landings end with a crash because of this problem. Flight Simulator 2020 behaves differently and the plane keeps going straight down the runway without erratically yawing left or ride until it drifts almost sideways and overturns to the roof seconds after the brakes are engaged in the highest realism/difficulty settings. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug of the DCS braking simulation? Here are screenshots of the latest two landings on Area 51, it was a test if this problem when braking occurs in every airplane. Yes it does.
draconus Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 A brake key hold means full on brakes after 1s. You can't expect it go perfectly straight - it's not train simulator. The aircraft almost never is perfectly balanced, so are the brakes and then there can be also a crosswind factor. Stop braking if you lose control. Even out with gentle rudder input and start braking again. Also try pulsing brakes to ease the braking. Practice. Now you crash a lot. After a while the only problem will be blown tires or broken nose steering. Then you'll learn to keep it straight and safe. Make sure to touch down in the touchdown zone - if you're over 1/3rd of the runway still in the air go around for another pass. After touchdown use aerobraking as long as possible. Use wheelbrakes only when necessary. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
84-Simba Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 I suspect a double binding between rudder axis and brake L and R axis. 1
maxTRX Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 (edited) In the Hornet, when landing on a runway make sure your antiskid is on. Even in no wind condition the steering usually starts acting a bit crazy when slowing down. With antiskid on, no problems whatsoever... as long as your rudder and brakes are properly programmed.
