Cant taxi

Post by LachyG »

Whenever i move my rudder pedals and i taxi i turn slowly, only moving 1-3 degress if i move my rudder pedalls. Ive tried looking in the manual for an answer but with no luck. Is this something thats part of the Cessna 172? or am i missing something.

Hi and welcome to the forums,

Cessna 172 front wheel is spring loaded and needs little breaking to be applied in order to turn more sharply. It is called differential breaking.
You can find more under the A2A Cessna 172 manual in section - "Airplane & Systems Description", "Ground Control".

Just to add to Will's answer, if you're using P3Dv4.1, you'll also want to download the update here to resolve a physics issue with ground steering in the A2A aircraft.

Cheers,
Nick

Hello,

it does sound like maybe you are P3D 4.1 user that hasn't run the latest Accu-sim updater

thanks,

No update specific for 4.2 is needed, just the latest updater;

Had that installed before i updated from 4.1 to 4.2, which was working. I've attempted to reinstall the patch but it still isn't working correctly for me in 4.2.
