Tiller and brakes well configured but impossible to manage turn ...


Recommended Posts

Hello, 

Tiller is linked to rudder axis, I see the nose wheel turning but plane is going forward or very slightly turn with some tyre's mark on the ground (brake configuration is ok one axis on each pedal). 

Even applying very little power she starts to turn and immediatly slide, and if I put full rudder right, she turns left! 

Any idea?

I wanted to confirm I had the same problem (plus I needed 55% N1 thrust to start taxiing and 50% just to keep rolling). Turning the GSX integration off and restarting the Sim solved both.

I can confirm the same problem. Not to mention I have to use inverted axis to taxi because it will not move forward without this problem.

Hi, 

We do not have reproduction of any of your reported issues internally or amongst our testers once control profiles and controllers are properly configured.

As for issues resolved after toggling GSX integration, sounds like GSX tugs are not properly releasing the aircraft, hence the difficulty with nosewheel steering and additional thrust required. Neither of those are normal conditions, and we are limited in how GSX behaves but things you should ensure

  • Correct GSX profile installed (and properly in the right directory). The final path of the installed profile should be: 

    %AppData%\Virtuali\Airplanes\inibuilds-a340\300\gsx.cfg

  • You have completed the pushback procedure properly, with GSX having removed your gear pin and properly dismissed you. You need to wait for the marshaller to release you, starting taxi prematurely may have that effect.
  • Ensure your chocks are properly removed prior to and after pushback. Chocks are controlled via the EFB Ground page.

As for steering in general

  • On the EFB Settings > Aircraft Settings page, there is a RUDDER CONTROLS TILLER option. When set to YES, your rudder axis controls the tiller as well. When set to NO, then the nosewheel has limited deflection, with full range of movement only possible via "Nose Wheel Steering Axis" in settings.

  • Skidding is simulated with latest FS2024 ground handling physics, so you need to properly manage your speeds when initiating steep turns (less than 10kts GS). You also need to carefully use your rudder/tiller to steer into the turn, instead of slamming full LEFT/RIGHT to ensure proper turning.

As for control profiles, since FS2024 has aircraft-specific control profiles now, ensure your correctly defined GENERAL, AIRPLANES and SPECIFIC A340-300 controls profiles are active. You may need to toggle between profiles or APPLY TO ALL (if you use the same across aircraft) for proper application. The same is true for any axis calibration/inversion applied.
