On several planes, I've encountered a tendency of the aircraft to "creep" forwards even when the parking brake is on, and the engine is just at idle.  If the brake is released, the plane starts moving at a surprisingly fast speed.  This occurs with the engine at idle.  The one I'm having a problem with right now is a freeware DHC-3 Otter which was originally developed for FS2002.  This Otter is a simple piston powered plane, although the problem has also occurred with turboprops.  I think, but I'm not sure, this problem does seem to occur mostly on planes moved to FS2004 from FS2002.  Is there a general fix anyone has come across to fix this?

i used to have this problem mate, but i recalibrated my joystick and now its perfect, try calibrating?


Ben.

I second the calibrate trick, but if that doesn't work, you might want to go into the aircraft config and play around with the amount of engine output.
