Slew crazy. Y?

Postby Hotshot » Sun Dec 28, 2008 9:36 am

Most odd. Out of the blue - if I click Y to slew my aircraft, it goes berserk, wildly spinning every whichway until I unslew. If anyone has come across this phenomenon and found a solution, advice would be much appreciated... :-/

Check the joystick assignments for slew mode. I believe, by default, joystick axes are assigned. If the axes are not centered when you enter slew (Y) you get movement.

For that reason, I prefer to delete the slew axes' assignments and rely on the keyboard assignments.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

First.. make sure that all of your controls are completely neutralized (like Dave mentioned)..
