dresoccer4 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 (edited) Anyone else think that it feels slow when you twist your joystick grip to press the rudder petals? I just came from flying the Ka-50 and when I twist the joystick the ridder moves close to real-time as my twist motion. However in the Mi-24, there is a long delay of the pedals being slowly pressed over to the spot I've twisted my joystick. For example, when rudder is neutral, twisting my joystick 100% to the left, the rudder takes almost 3 seconds to travel all the distance to the left. Doing this in the Ka-50 the rudder will travel the distance in about 1 second.

Solution AeriaGloria Posted February 24, 2022 Solution Share Posted February 24, 2022 This is correct, there is a rudder dampener becuase moving the pedals too fast can cause issues, such as severe Dutch roll. A pilot can push through the dampener, but even then manual says that at high speed to never push pedals from side to side in less then 3 seconds When the speed of the pedal movement is limited by the dampener, you will see a yellow caution light saying “high pedal rate” near the gyro buttons/switch/lights. you can turn off rudder dampener though, it is a switch with a red guard on left side of instrument panel. However be aware that turning off the rudder dampener will also disable any yaw autopilot functions 1 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
