Auto Rudder (Yaw damper)

Recommended Posts

Everybody that already played Microsoft Flight Simulator without rudder pedals or a joystick with yaw axis know and loved a nice checkbox called "auto rudder". That checkbox tells the simulator to apply pedals when you are into a curve, to keep it coordinated, a task a pilot usually would do himself, if he had pedals at all!

In real world, the yaw damper system in airliners do the same trick, besides preventing dutch rolls. Airliner pilots (and the autopilot for instance) fly with pitch and roll maneuvers (yoke or stick), and let the yaw for the computers, unless they need compensate for some external factor, like crosswinds.

So I ask, there is (or somebody can make) a mod that have this nice checkbox to help fly our contraptions in a coordinated manner while in atmosphere? Of course, this kind of help is not necessary while in space!

Thanks you all

If you're using FAR, there is a damper there you can manually tune, somewhere around flight assist sections.

Or try fly-by-wire from this mod, it should kill dutch roll alright.

Wow that was a bit overkill with so much options but it did exactly what I want! Thanks a lot!
