LOC was already active, GS was armed. Nav source was V/L. It also could not be FLCH, because ALT was set to 1200' and I caught the plane at around 700' when I first heared "glideslope".

As soon as I reached that speed the plane started its descent and I got lots of "glideslope" aural warnings Reads like your speed is to slow. Try increasing vapp and test. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used this one, but did not upgrade yet to 1.0.2. Mine is 1.0.0. My speed was Vref+5 exactly. I did not get stall warning or stick shaker.

Ádám Balogh Posted September 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 This early descent is just one issue, but the topic is about control problems. What is the best joystick setup for Saitek wheel? For other (yoke-driven) planes I use the wheel with zero null zone and maximal sensitivity. I used E-Jets v2 with zero null zone and about 80% sensitivity. However, V3 behaves as it would have very large null zone on his own, and then sensitivity is too high: small yoke movement, nothing, a little bit more, and the plane starts to bank or pitch very quickly. It is like flying the plane with switches. With other planes I have no such problem, not even with V2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know FSUIPC allows that ... even allowing custom settings for individual planes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
