Warthog won't turn

[Freelance044]

I recently changed my viewing and flying by changing my view to arrow keys and my flying with the keypad 4,6,8,2. This worked for a while then suddenly it stopped and my Warthog began curving to the right, even though my in-game "Joystick" moves correctly.

 

Any ideas on why this is happening?

Maybe you trimmed by mistake. Press the take off trim button on the SAS panel and see what happens.

Or you suffer hydraulics failure.

Or you mixed something up in the key bindings.

 

Man get a joystick. This simulation is quite unplayable if you have to keep your fingers on the numpad for the flying...

Instructions say to trim and even without it doesn't work. My numpads were confirmed and the stick in the cockpit moves like it should but the warthog just doesn't want to turn.

Provide a track please.

[Freelance044]

I may need directions on providing a track, brand new here.

 

Nvm I got it, just having trouble saving. What's the Track file type?

My Track should be attached. Just ignore the bad reflexes.

All I saw in that track was you taxiing into a field?

 

EDIT: By 'turning', you don't mean on the ground, right?

[Freelance044]

I could not turn, hence going into the field. I wanted to turn left or right onto the runway, which this track shows my stick turning, but it will not turn.

[Corrigan]

Aircraft turn in flight by moving the control surfaces, controlled by the stick and rudder. This works because the air rushing onto them exerts a force (essentially). On the ground at taxi speed, moving them has no effect. Aircraft turn on the ground by using the nosewheel to steer.

So to turn onto a runway you need to make sure nosewheel steering is enabled (Insert) and then use the rudder (z, x) to steer left and right.

[Eddie]

That's because the stick does not control the rudder or nose wheel steering. You need to use the rudder keys, whatever you have them configured to.

I get it. I'm going to school but I'll try it when I get back. Thanks a ton for the help!
