unable to reproduce CH47 ground steering

[-Bob-]

After the last patch the ground steering is worser as before. I'm not able to to steer to the right. Left no problem. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Is there someone who has the same feeling?

Hello @-Bob-

When you have these issues to report, it's good practice to share a short track of what you are experiencing so we can analyse.

We've tested internally and found no issues turning either side. 

Please read the manual on the ground steering section to full follow the procedure (turn on steer, turn off AFCS, etc).
After following those procedures, if you still see issues, we will need a track to verify the conditions.

The problem with the right steering was the AFCS was switch on. But please have a look on the file because sometimes it was uncontrolable. How  can I send you the trackfile?

You can make a short track, for example a clean mission in Caucasus and share it right here.

Again, I tested turning using the correct procedures and it worked ok. It requires some practice since only one wheel is power steered (the right one) and the other is free turning. All turns should be slow and anticipating trajectories. With some practice it becomes easier. Most of the problems we've seen from users involve too much speed and oversteering.

Also if you get moving too fast in a taxi, it can lift enough weight off of the wheels ( but not off the ground) to where the steering will not work.It doesn’t take much speed to induce that effect.

I use an axis, the wheel just never turn. Well, this thing is so easy to hover taxi, so I'm not really bothered trying to wheel taxi anymore.

In the Helios profile its really easy with the big “spring loaded” steering knob

Have imported it, and I'm about to try it. I worry the screens get too small for me. I only have a 24" as the second one.

i have the steering knob mapped to a spring loaded "wobble paddle" on my throttle. in theory it should be perfect for this. in reality it does not want to turn the way it's supposed to

Hi. I have done today a lot of landings on a multiplayer server. Please have a look on the trackfile. In the end I tried to steer the CH on the airfiled but nothing was working. 

Speed 0-6(8), ACFS off, steering on andnot oversteerd in the beginning until nothing was working. Trackfile attached.

The TM TWCS? Same as me then. I have it as a spare, but I use it for that.

It's much better if you post an SP short track so det mods and devs doesn't have to sit and watch the whole track. 

Cheers!
