vonduck 10 Posted December 23, 2011 Hi guys, I now have my Saitek combat pedals and am getting used to flying with them... a real change from the twist grip joystick i can say! I need to ask ... i am flying on expert mode and while i experience yawing to the right due to torque which i counter with the pedals... is it normal to have the chopper BANK to the right all the time? I have calibrated my CH Flight stick and it seems ok... do i need to manually trim this? Thanks guys! Doug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedra 11 Posted December 23, 2011 That's normal behaviour. When you increase/decrease collective, the chopper will bank to the right/left. You have to counter this with left/right pedal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EagleEye-GER- 0 Posted December 23, 2011 I think he mean rolling to the right in the medium helicopter? I think it`s not a correct behavior, because I can`t imagine that the pilots (flying a helicopter with the tail rotor above the vertical CofG) have to fight with that IRL. BUT see this post by Armored Sheep. I`m open to learn that it IS the correct behavior if some pilot come`s here and tell about.;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zentaos 10 Posted December 23, 2011 either way, the rolling and yawing tendency would decrease with speed as the horizontal and vertical stabilizers on the tail take aerodynamic effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
