On the ground, i accelerate and plane turns indefinitely

Post by vince_l07 »

Hello everyone,

I bought the C182 in September 2017.
Recently, I completed my planes with the Comanche.

As the forum advocated, I re-downloaded the C182 and uninstalled the old version.
Precautionary Backup and manual delete of... \ [User] \Documents\Prepar3D V4 Add-ons\A2A
I had no uninstall program. I also deleted the shortcuts in the "Start" menu.

I reinstalled the new version of the C182 as well as the Comanche.
Ok, the 2 airplanes are available in P3d. (v4)

My problem: On the ground, as soon as I accelerate, the plane starts to spin like a spinner. :(
("Spinner" : Sorry, I am not sure of the word in English .. Turns on himself indefinitely)

Same thing with the Comanche.

I have no problem with the other planes (no A2A) and the old C182 worked perfectly.
I tried another joystick: same.
I looked at the program "Input Configurator" but I do not see anything that could solve my problem. I had not put anything on the old version of the C182

I had to miss something in the setup but I do not see.

Thank you for your help.
Cordially.

Vincent

Hello Vincent,

Prepar3D v4 must be updated to at least v4.1 standard to avoid this issue. The current version is v4.2: https://prepar3d.com/news/2018/02/114621/.

When it comes to updating P3D, you must uninstall the existing client and content components before installing the new versions. More details in this post on the Avsim forums.

Hope this information helps. :)

Thanks,
Nick

Thanks Nick for your quick reply.

Actually, I'm in v 4.0
I'm still reluctant with the updates when everything works fine but there if I want to enjoy your excellent planes... I have no choice

I'll get started
Have a nice day.

Hi Vincent,

Yes - I'm afraid so. We can't really support outdated versions of Prepar3D indefinitely and whilst we appreciate that customers may not wish to move to new versions immediately, keeping the base sim reasonably up to date is the only way to get fixes and performance enhancements.

Thanks,
Nick
