There are AFAIK, no reports by anyone else of a tendency to turn right. Left yes, and that's intentional. Looks like a local problem to me. Have you opened the property browser and checked some obvious parameters? Right brake set to on would account for this effect, or rudder permanently set, rudder trim might be a possible cause. Since you seem to report it as happening in JSBSim and YASim, it's not likely to be an fdm bug. Use the Hunter for tests, that definitely does _not_ turn right deliberately or otherwise. It does have differential brakes though, which can catch you out. Vivian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
