Sliding Aircraft

When ever I take off or land my aircraft slides (drives) to the right.

This is really annoying as I can't take off in a straight line because my plane's going all over the runway! Mad

Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem,

Thanks 😀

I'd say use the differential braking a LITTLE bit. Hit F11 or F12 as nessesary.

Do you think it my be because of your controller? (joystick)

I may be completely off track but isn n't this due to torque reaction? When
flying model planes I found you had to put opposite rudder on before TO run otherwise you turned sharply into the carpark 😕

you have a point, and he could have that turned on. I think you have to go into realism settings and adjust the torque and P-Factor all to the left to igmore this

That reminds me, have you tried engaging auto rudder?

Or do you have autopilot engaged?

What weather do you have set up? Do you have a crosswind?
Do you have any trouble holding a course once in the air? I had trouble with a 3 axis (twist for rudder) wireless joystick and a bad 5 volt power supply in my tower (computer tower, not control tower 😂 ) that caused the plane to turn to the right all the time. A new computer solved that problem.

Good luck. Pete

Or, it could be your joystick calibration, gets wrong!
