FSX - Default DC-3 - Roll Moment with Rudder

aback to Microsoft Flight Simulator gues
Duy
back to Flight Dynamics t

The default DC-3 in FS9 (FS2004) rolled against deflection of rudder, which definitely is wrong.

The coefficent CL_dr was too high so the Roll Moment with Rudder was not compensated by the other Roll Moments.

That has been fixed in FSX in setting CL_dr to ZERO.

Therefore it was even possible to decrease CL_beta (Roll Moment - Sideslip (Dihefral Effect) . I have not tested this effect.

A test shows: The plane does not roll anymore against rudder deflection.

I have not studied the effect of reduced dihedral effect.
