Rolling Over

Postby Capt._Viper » Fri Dec 03, 2010 10:45 am

I have the ALPHA Cessna T-50 with a persistant left roll-over.   Can anyone help me get it trimed out?  :-/

Just a thought but could you check the payload of this Cessna? Check if the weight distribution is equal. If there is only a heavy pilot on the left side and nothing on the right side, aircraft will roll left slightly. Quick fix is to put in an equally heavy passenger. It should fly straight again.

Ofcourse this is just a cheat instead of trimming it out. For that I think you need to open the .air file.

Went into the aircraft config file and looked for a place to change the balance of the T-50 and found the fuel weight entry, added 54lbs to the right side, got it trimed out.

Thanks for the idea.

Have you tried recalibrating the stick?
