Hi.
I am having trouble with many of my planes, they roll to one side (trimmed properly, no wind, even fuel levels, but the hydraulic levels are not even?)  on auto pilot the planes will fly with 1-4 degrees bank and stay that way.  Any ideas?  Not all planes have hydraulic levels but the default Dash 8 does and it is definately cruising at 3 degrees bank, the difference in levels is 2% any ideas on the cause of all this?  how do Hydraulic levels change on either side more than the other????

Question ??? Where did the planes in question come from ??? Are they default aircraft or downloaded or converted aircraft from fs98 or below. ???

Fuel from wing tanks not being used evenly? It took me ages to figure that one out on one of my planes ;D

How much wind have you got at the altitude you're fliyng?
Your aircraft cuold fly with that small bank angle to mantain the heading you've selected......
It' the same thing that you do during cross wind approachings..... ;)
Or there could be another reanson......have you checked the trim?
Not only that for rolling,but also that one for rudder........inducted rolling!!!! ;)
Otherwise.......i've no ideas!!!
Cheers!

Hi Rafiki ,
In the back of my mind I seem to have seen that F5 trims , but I am really uncertain as to whether I imagined that or ???  Perhaps someone else can comment as to whether I saw that somewhere or not .
