Ground Steering


Lighttrail

Recommended Posts

Is there a way to make the ground steering more responsive? I have to push my rudder pedals all the way in each direction for the plane to respond, however slowly. I end up using my toe brakes a lot to help with the turns. When @citationmax did the livestream preview he talked about this behavior and that it reflected how the actual SR22 behaved in real life. If the real plane functions like that I won't worry too much about it. But if it is something that you can tweak I would certainly welcome it. Thanks! Love this plane BTW!

I lot airplanes in real life have free free castering . The best way to ago about is to use deferential brakes and power.

The plane has a free-cantering nose wheel, so you can’t steer it with the rudder pedals (unless you’re at higher speeds on takeoff/landing). You have to tap the toe brakes to steer the plane. 
There are some great YouTubers that show how it’s done.
