McMouzar Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago Hey Everyone, I've seen a few posts about this problem, but none of them have helped me. I'm fairly new to DCS and the F-16C and I'm not really sure what happened. I was doing mission 2 of the Dragon's Fury campaign for the second time (First time I landed at Anderson when I wasn't supposed to) and after completing the mission objective I was on autopilot towards waypoint 4 and I decided to accelerate time to get there a little quicker (tired of doing it again). A few seconds into the time acceleration my plane went into a spin diving towards the ground. I took control back, but I could not get full control. There was random full rudder and continuous full aileron both to the left. I turned on pitot probe heat since I saw a few posts about that (even though I was in a warm environment) and deployed landing gear. The landing gear seemed to help the rudder a little bit, but not the constant roll. I also could not trim it out. My stick was calibrated and DCS was not showing any input on any axis in the axis tuner. I could see the rudder pedals moving occasionally in the cockpit. I managed to touch down, but then lost control on the runway and crashed. The track file is just over the size limit, so it is not attached. After the mission ended I hopped into a free flight and no issues were present. This makes me think I did something when using time acceleration, but I can't figure it out. I thought maybe I mis-clicked a command on the keyboard when blindly reaching for ctrl+z with my VR headset on. Is there any sort of command that messes with the flight control surfaces? Watching the track with the inputs showing I can see the rudder going from neutral to full left repeatedly, but yet in the axis tuner it was not moving at all. Does time acceleration cause weird things to happen in game like it does watching tracks? I am playing in VR and using a Thrustmaster Warthog throttle and a Virpil WarBRD base with a Virpil MongoosT-50 CM2 stick. I don't yet have rudder pedals (saving up) and I am using the slider on the Warthog throttle to control rudder. I have only been using it on the ground. I'm currently on version 2.9.16.10973 of DCS. Cheers, thanks for any help/suggestions.
MAXsenna Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago Just gonna mention the obvious which you have probably checked already. Axis conflicts? DCS has a nasty habit of binding axis that are not used and for the incorrect functions. What contradicts this theory is of course no movement in the controls indicator. But I would double check again.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk

Just double checked to be sure, and nothing is incorrectly bound. Cheers!

Please also check your axis for double inputs, or pot spikes. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
