Anyone else noticed that a parked aircraft, with engine off, will slowly rotate (i.e. yaw) for no apparent reason. The accompanying sound suggests the engine is on, but it isn't. If you hit 'B' for brakes, it will stop, but why is it happening in the first place?

Could it be the aircaft turning into wind? It used to happen in IL2 if there was server weather. (from memory the first mission in the RAAF campaign in Milne Bay, New Guinea.)

the only logic explanation would be the wind.. try and lock your tailwheel and see if it still happens.
Planes are ALWAYS parked with the nose into the wind for this reason (cos they will tend to weathercock anyway) and to avoid being toppled by the wind. |

It's the wind I think. Most if not all of our flyables have castoring tailwheels, for a start.

I experience it too.. but to be fair the wind would have to be pretty strong to be moving the plane that much... I think its a bug.

I agree, I think it's a bug. I'm a r/w pilot and it would take a strong wind to weather vane a Spit into wind like that.

But, does it disappear when the tailwheel is locked, that is the question. Because if it doesn't it really is a bug, when it does maybe the effect is overdone.
