i really wanted a Socata Tb20, but all of it has yaw to the right when moving is there any way to solve or any one know a model that do not have this problem?
pls help me i really want a proper socata tb20, i use to have a coast guard socata tb20 which do not have this problem, but i lost it when i partition my harddisk thank you very much.

What is your torque set to in realism settings?

alll set to unreal

Do you have AutoRudder on?

yes

What happens if you apply oppostite rudder? Also what are your other realism settings at?

I don't wish to interfere but the way this thread is going this could last for weeks. I assume we're talking about the Socata TB20GT Trinidad posted here. http://www.simviation.com/fs2002props31.htm

Bill Leaming, the creator, is an experienced FS developer & I would expect the flight dynamics to be as realistic as he can make them. The TB20 has a standard Lycoming piston engine. If anything the prop torque would make the aircraft swing to the left like the other default aircraft, not the right.

The problem could be with your joystick calibration. If you have Auto-rudder enabled I assume it doesn't have a separate rudder control. (If it has one you should disable Auto-rudder.) The swing could also be caused by a crosswind. This should affect all aircraft, not just the Socata. Without trying it myself I can't really figure out why this would happen.

I don't know if there is another version of this aircraft but I haven't looked. Hope this is some help.

I was enjoying that Doug.  One word replies are soo helpful

but the turn coordinator has a orange sign at the right side, and the joystick is ok because other plane works well with it. i  don't think i have set any crosswind can u still help me can u try the plane

I might download it later to check it out for you. The file size is just about on my limit & I don't want it for myself. Not sure I can fix the problem even if I find one. I'm useless at FS flight dynamics.

OK. I tried it & see what you mean. It does veer to the right at the start of the take-off roll & the steering is a tad too twitchy for my liking. This might be the problem. Sorry but I don't know how to fix it.

It should be OK if you apply power gradually & keep it straight with a touch of rudder. It obviously helps if you have a joystick with a separate rudder control. If not, Auto-rudder might be OK. You could also try decreasing the rudder sensitivity a little from FS2002 Settings.

thank you very much infact i like this plane because it was in a famous drama in Hong Kong
