How do I use the rudder?
In the manual it says [glow=yellow,2,300]Num 0[/glow] and [glow=yellow,2,300]Num enter[/glow].
If I press [glow=yellow,2,300]Num enter[/glow], it just changes to virtual cockpit and [glow=yellow,2,300]Num 0[/glow] does nothing.

Is "Num Lock" on or off on your keyboard? Whatever it is, try it the other way (press "Num Lock").
You will see numbers and symbols on the numerical keypad; Num Lock toggles functions of those keys between symbols and numbers.

Well, I know that, but it doesn't work, even if the Num Lock is on..

Auto rudder still turned on? Once in the air nothing will help if that's turned on. (FSX?)

Edit: some addon craft dont always have the default key commands.

OK... so, since it's not that, and your intended rudder key commands are definitely triggering some other functions, you should go into the controls>assignments menu and see what's actually assigned there. You may have to re-assign them... it happens sometimes with FS9; not sure why.
