Maneuvering On The Ground With Differential Braking

And same here. Corsair is grounded

The issue with faulty wind vaning may be not so easy to solve,  as it is directly related to the module's flight model, which may explain why this issue has not been receiving much attention from the devs.  I remember how a very similar wind vaning problem with the MiG 19 was completely disregarded by the developer and never fixed.  An aircraft that cannot properly taxi is basically unplayable. Shame.

I am of the opinion that wind vaneing has absolutely nothing to do with the problem. The Corsair is not much easier to turn around without any wind at all. Just compare it to the P-47 under the same conditions. These two airplanes are fairly close to each other in weight and power and both utilize the same method of maneuvering on the ground and yet, they could not possibly be more different as they are modeled in DCS World. I wish that M3 and ED would put their heads together and figure this out. This doesn't serve either organization to have this kind of obvious problem go on unresolved.

While taxiing under no wind conditions is obviously very problematic,  it is still possible (by applying excessive power and wheel brake); but with a headwind,  it is not at all possible to turn past 90 degrees, in either direction and regardless of the amount of power applied,  which is due to the aircraft's exaggerated tendency to turn into the wind. This is particularly noticeable on a carrier deck.  You just can't taxi back for taking off again after landing.

You don't taxi back on a Carrier after landing.

You just land, then take off from where you landed.

I do (as there is no other option due to this bug)  but that is irrelevant. The aircraft should be able to taxi in a crosswind. That's the whole point of this thread.
