Rudder and nose wheel steering

Post by alex.767 » Sun Dec 22, 2019 3:40 pm

I'm having a weird issue where I can only control the nose wheel steering through the steering axis assignment in P3D. I have my CH pedal rudder axis calibrated through FSUIPC as "send to FS as normal axis." The rudder works normally when I'm just off the brakes and going very slowly. Then, it suddenly stops moving and only gives me a tiny range of travel. Are my controller set up wrong or am I not understanding how the nose wheel/rudder works on the KA?

Try removing the calibration by FSUIPC. The King Air has a narrow range of motion in which the nose wheel is directly controlled and then allows the nosewheel to caster the rest of the way. You FSUIPC calibrations may be messing with the coding they put into the sim to represent this feature of the real airplane. (Yes, the catering is coded into the MV KA350i.)

That appears to have worked. Thank you!
