Cessna Caravan Problem

Discuss aircraft addons and repaints for Flight Simulator here

Hey there.

Whenever I manually start my Cessna Caravan, it just starts moving forwards and then I can't control it. This is with 0 throttle and parking brake on.

Help appreciated, Michael

I'm not suspended here anymore either btw. Sorry bout that to any mods that read.

Hi Michael, I assume you're talking about the default Caravan from FSX?

Do you have a joystick? If so, have you tried recalibrating it?

yes I do have a joystick, I recalibrate it a lot but its broken and everyone now and then does a random input. But nothing really that major.

When I start other planes though they're fine.

And yes, it is the default FSX one.

When you say it moves forwards and you can't control it, could you elaborate on that? Does it jerk forward, or smoothly accelerate? Does the parking brake (or regular brake/s) have any effect?

It moves forwards ("takes off" would be a good word but didn't use it cause it would seem like I meant flew off into the air) although Full Throttle was applied. This is with the parking brakes on, after its started moving hitting the normal brakes doesn't do anything either.
