So when setting up a flight and this is with the A320, 747, and Cessna jet so far. Once I take off and start climbing little by little rudder with start turning to the left or right until it reaches full right or full left. I don’t press anything I even disconnected my keyboard before the flight to see if maybe my keyboard was pressing something by mistake and still nothing. Basically because of this problem I can’t fly at all. Any idea on what it could be anyone?

Again I start at any airport, do my checklist and taxi out, and still no problem, take off, and once I start reaching about 6000 feet you can tell that the rudder is inching little by little until about 10000 feet later it’s full left or fully right.

Thank you for asking this question, as I am having the same problem. I try and trim with no effect. Very frustrating.

I have the same problem. But it has nothing to do with the altitude. It’s the autopilot. Is the autopilot on HDG or NAV(GPS) the rudder starts to turn right. Then the plane starts to bank about 5-7 degress to the right. This can be fixed by pressing NAV button again in GPS mode. The G1000 will go to LVL and level the plane. But now it doesn’t follow the GPS. If I press NAV button again to go to GPS the rudder slowly starts to turn right and after 5-10 min. it’ll be back at a 5-7 degree bank angle. Oddly the plane like the Bonanza G36 flies 10 knots faster with the rudder turned right. If I level the plane the speed drops about 10 knots. This doesn’t make any sence, since the rudder should create drag when turned full right. The problem occurs on every prop/turboprop plane I’ve flown except the Cessna 172 Skyhawk G1000, which flies fine. So please fix…

FYI:
The “Bugs & Issues” section of the forum has a requirement that you always search before you post in this section of the forum.
There are actually several threads already here on this.

These are the first steps to take.

  • Set Flight Model to “Modern”, not “Legacy”.
  • Set Assists settings to “Hard/True to Life”.
  • Ensure that AI Copilot is off.
  • Add deadzones to each axis for all your controllers. Approximately 5% should be enough, but there have been instances where significantly more was needed.

After you have done these and if the problem still persists, see this previous thread. It could be the solution.
