Front gear rotation
« on: March 02, 2012, 01:56:02 pm »
Hi everybody!

I noticed one strage behavior of the front gear in many models (of course a330-340 by Overland and others). The rotation angle of the front gear is very restricted and not proportional to real stearing radius. So the plane turns correctly in sharp curve but the front gear turns on itself just a little.
Anyone noticed this? Is there a solution to increase the rotation angle of the front gear?

Thankyou in advance for your help

follow this link to avsim:

It's for FS 2002 but works also in FS9. Dont know about FSX. Read the tutorial and you'll find what to do, but yours is on page 4.

additional: the steering wheel in the overland airbuses is to be handled by your keybord, the numlock section then the enter button(to steer right), the "0" or Ins button to steer left, and the 5 to go straight again.
