I have the same problem. Glad I found this thread because having miserable time with this aircraft. Every single flight ends with left spin and crash and then all my saves dont work. Doesnt help that all liveries seem to share the same persistent data so even loading up a new livery its still the same plane
Look out windows at wings. All surfaces neutral, plane huge pull to left. Eventually I counteracted and even landed by realizing
that even with neutral calibrated controls the plane was rolling hard so could counteract with 'extreme' right aileron. The amount you'd need to make a 60 degree or higher turn. Wings showed this silly amount of control surface was being deployed just to keep aircraft
steady.
1st step deleted dat files. No effect.
Its late at night and yet another Twitch stream Ive canceled to be dealing with this. Had no problem whatsoever with the fantastic Comanche and Cherokees as my joyous videos posted here show.
I'm going to remove aircraft and reinstall ONCE.
If that doesnt work I will have to ask for a refund for a non-functioning prod cut which would make me very sad as I researched and planned to buy this plane for the last month to fill a gap. Fingers crossed my fresh install (last new one was fresh too!) will sort this otherwise its back to the RealAir Spit for speed and no more A2A purchases. I want to fly not suffer like this!
Will post/report back the results.
Being a diagnostic chap Im going to reinstall with ORIGINAL Accusim exe NOT the global update. See if that works first.
Not looking good unless the real plane is this hard to fly,,,
After takeoff roll to left. To climb/cruise I need 10 degree right aileron. This works for 5 -10 seconds then plane starts to
roll right smoothly towards death spin. Remove all trim to 0 degrees. Plane flies dead straight then a few seconds later...starts to left again. 10 right fixes it for few seconds then roll right again. This repeats over and over.
I could get to my destination like this but its no fun at all and cant be realistic.
34 MP and 2250RPM steady cruise--IF you can call steady cruise at 145kts steady!
Going to continue and land then complete overhaul. Something messed up my power after a very careful and slow climb.
More later....
Coming in to land..LOL ignore the speed problems...i had been so busy keeping the plane from spinning out during climb i ummm.left the gear down...approach is smooth at moment no rolling at all..\
No problems landing. Hanger report LIKE NEW. For diagnostics reasons Im going to attempt another flight still running original accusim install. If I get left and right rolling after takeoff I will quit and install the update.
Took off..usual left deathroll until 4000 feet then it went away...this time no trim just held yoke over to right the whole time.
Trimmed out smooth at 7000. Went to bathroom for 60 seconds came back plane in the dirt. Reloaded in flight and serviced with hanger in the air...when this flight is done i will load the accusim update as last attempt to get plane safe to fly.
..update..plane very stable above 250kts..i understand torque effect..been very careful with throttle adjustments.
..interesting note...fus tank full before flight...used CD/auto start for this test..just checked fuel- fus tank selected
and it has ZERO fuel..popup shows 0 and gauge on left shows 0 too..been flying on 0 for 15 mins at least..just switched
to left tank to be cautious...
Landing smooth as silk..flaps that didnt work during tax test worked fine for landing...greased it!
Ran latest AS update...found P51 Civvy said was up to date..guess files retained somewhere...ok back to try flying again!
Loaded last flight. To test the fuel 'thing' I unloaded all fuel from plane all tanks and selected fus tank. Panel shows 0% all tanks.
Used auto start. Plane started perfectly. Gauges showing zero fuel. Will fly this whole flight without adding fuel...at least me weights are super low! IF i make it will try start plane with zero fuel manually at destination.
OK I am seriously DONE! Im using FSX Steam Edition BTW. Gonna load up another plane now and enjoy myself before bed.
Plane engine didnt need fuel. Got tickover sample but it throttled up fine but sounded silly. Control lock OFF but behaved like it was on (i could see control surfaces fine in views). Loaded fuel next time, no difference. Plane acted same as if C lock was on. Impossible to take off. Will be asking for refund could someone tell me where to go for that? I hope my recorded efforts from another wasted night here will suffice to show I REALLY tried to get this working.
Im going to finish the night with the Comanche. I HAVE to know before bed that that AS update didnt mess with that too..Fingers crossed for my sweet Piper combo..so much pleasure compared to this...\
Loaded up the glorious Comanche..start up/take off fine planned to do gear down circuit. NOT POSSIBLE! Plane death rolled to left until the moment I raised gear. Flies perfectly now...I could cry if that AS update (that i didnt run till had the Mustang) messed up my favorite planes...
PS after landing and taking off again Comanche didnt roll left...bedtime now with some relief. I DO want to get Mustang off my system ASAP now though.
