747 LNAV rudder banking even with legacy flight model disable

The 747 seems to fly fine when I fly in VFR mode and manually set my heading. However, when I filed a flight plan and fly it with LNAV/VNAV, the plane flys in a straight line but the plane is banked 10 degrees. At first I thought it was the aelierons but I noticed the rudder was in the opposite direction to compensate this. When I take manual control of the rudder and center it, it flies fine, until the autopilot freaks out and makes me fly inverted, so this is not ideal.

I thought maybe my yaw was the issue on my joystick, but this is not happening to any of my other aircraft. I looked into online, and someone said something about setting legacy flight model to modern, which I did but the issue still persists. The only way I thought I could get around this was disabling the yaw in game, but I just want to fly properly but can’t because of this ■■■■ auto-pilot.

Anybody knowhow I can fix this without having to reinstall the game?

You shouldn’t have to do this unless you have messed with any official files. And assure you have no mods/add-ons/3rd party.

The correct model is “Modern”. So you have that right. Legacy is for FSX imported aircraft.

Don’t know if you’ve seen this topic, if not, have a peek!

yep, i saw that other post. It seems some people have had the issue, but it went away when they switched the model to modern. This of course is not the case for me.

You can try to uninstall just the 747 from Content Manager. Exit MSFS. Then reinstall it from Content Manager. You wouldn’t have to uninstall any liveries for it in the Content Manager, just the 747 aircraft.
