Please read the 'TAIL WHEEL LOCK AND CONTROL' paragraph in the manual (can be found in the package or at: www.vskylabs.com/2017/06/vskylabs-dc-3-c-47-flying-lab-manual.htmlPlease let me knwo if you are having further difficulties with it!

Hi,
I tried to lock the tail wheel, but still go around. Also tried different settings in the CH Yoke, like changing prop, mix and throttle, but no luck.
Tried a different yoke, this one a joystick male by Logitech - Extreme 3D Pro, but still no luck. I can get the engines to be at full throttle, but plane moves either forward to slow, or starts in circles.All switches in the program seem to be working fine, and my CH Yoke works fine with others XPlane aircraft. Also have and use FSX Steam Edition with no problems.
Let me know. Thanks Ruben

Hi  Mastering the DC-3 takeoff sequence in terms of control needs practice. For start, make sure that the wind is calm/no wind exists. Then...lock the tailwheel and make sure that you are on Expert mode. Next...after getting done with takeoff checklist, set the yoke in an aft position, and throttle up (no brakes applied). Next...since the tailwheel is locked (try to verify it!), the aircraft will not have a tendency to go into a circle, unless you are using asymmetric power or having a very strong crosswind conditions. Keep in mind that using full rudder at low airspeed will kick in differential braking. This might throw you a bit off... It should be straight forward, but needs practice. The aircraft will behave as if it is a bit "lazy", so do not apply over-corrections. Let me know how/if you are making progress on this matter. I will try to guide you to success! |
