Ramses823 Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) Hey I'm New to the viper I've been flying the A-10 for a while and recently the F-15E, I have played around with the F-16 in the past but never spent much time in it, but I've decided to put some time in the viper, my question is I'm using the thrustmaster TPR rudders and I have never had to use any axis tuning however when I'm taking off even with a 3 kt wind if I disable NWS at 70 kts the aircraft yaws from the wind and I have to put in a large amount of rudder to correct it and I also notice when taxiing my turn radius is very wide what settings are you guys using for your rudders?

Solution Ramses823 Posted August 28, 2023 Author Solution Posted August 28, 2023 Well I have answered my own question for all the reading and studying I've done about different aircraft and combat tactics after 3 years of DCS I'm just now finding out the issue was me not putting my feet on the rudders correctly kind of embarrassing to say but I'm leaving this post up it may help someone out in the future who is making the same mistake.. 1
