    Torque.

    Is there anyway to nullify torque in te aircraft
    cfg?

    I probably sound like a heritic,but wonderfull
    aircraft like the Sopwith Camel,are a problem
    for me. I know that in reality,this is the way
    they were.

    i cannot spend much more than about 10 minutes
    on the sim,before I am in serious pain. Therefore
    I just want to have an easy flight each time I sit down
    in front of the computer.

    Hoping someone can help.

    If memory serves me right, there's a slider you can turn down in your settings called P-factor that you can use to scale down or remove torque from all a/c

    And no worries about being a heretic. While a lot of us strive for teeth-gnashing realism, it should be fun for anyone who takes interest. Hence the scalable realism, I suppose

    How do you scale down the P factor?

    Btw thanks for the reply.

    P factor and torque are both in the Settings - Realism menu window.
    Rats - why won't anything work properly first time?

    With Thanks. Will try that.

    There's a good article in this month's FlyPast on the torque effects to watch out for flying the Bf109, especially at takeoff. The more a flight model can reproduce these characteristics in FSX the more that interests me, but to each their own!

    Hello

    You can also try to change something in the aircraft.cfg

    section [flight tuning]

    hi_alpha_on_roll=-0.4
    hi_alpha_on_yaw=0.15
    p_factor_on_yaw=1.0
    torque_on_roll=1.0
    gyro_precession_on_yaw=1.0
    gyro_precession_on_pitch=1.0


    If missing you can add these lines (FSX acceleration) and try different value in each parameters, one at a time

    The ww2 single engine had some important effect on the control in yaw and roll at low speed, the principal cause was not the torque himself, but too small stabilizers
