Adding Power Makes the A/C Jump on the Ground

Post by dlstanek »

I can't tell you how much I LOVE the aircraft. It brings back wonderful memories when I actually flew the real plane! THANK YOU!!!

I do have a question though. I did COMPLETE Walk around, and everything is in order. After engine start, checklist etc, I add power to get the A/C moving. For the first second or two, it jumps as if there are wheel chocks in place, when in fact they are removed. Verified by the Walk around. Any ideas of what is going on?

I installed the update.

Thanks for your expertise!

Hi Dennis,

Glad to hear you're still having fun with the 172 - thanks for the kind words.

There may be a few things that could cause the little jump you mention, but probably the first thing to rule out is a modified default flight.

When you first start FSX, which aircraft loads in the "Free Flight" window in the revolving preview screen?

Also, could you just give us a basic idea of what controller hardware you're using?

Thanks,
Nick
