STUKA rudder problems

LcSummers · #1 07-02-2011, 07:05 AM

Hi folks,

i fly the STUKa on full CEM. I made a ferry flight from England to France. It was a pleasure but i have noticed something and i wanted to ask if its a bug or was this in real life too.

Stuka brakes arent functioning this has been posted but what is with the rudder?

Flying a Spit, Hurri or Me 109 the rudder is centered but flying the Stuka it is pointing to the right even if i try to trim it. I cant get it to a neutral position.

Has anyone experienced this too. Any suggestions?

No. You see a grey button on the left side of a cocpit, on which there is a white arrow on the top. That is the rudder trimm. If the arrow points backward, is the trimm in the center position. If I change the trimm, the rudder move properly.

Hi Tom,

I didnt explained myself clearly. So the STUKAs rudder is little pointing to the right. Rudder is functioning well to left and to the right on the ground and in air.
The STUKA is the only aircraft (for me) wich has its rudder set to the right. Any other airplane`s rudder is in a neutral position. Is it historically correct that the Stukas rudder is pointing starboard?

Köszi

PS: trim works well too.

That would be bice. Bf 108 Taifun? Its amod or not? How is it possible to fly it?
