• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Like the DC3 in FSX, it has severe wing rock (roll) effect if it flys through turbulence or bad clouds.
Example the Learjet or B737 have this effect much less.
how can I change the intensity of that effect per plane?
 
You would have to increase things like the weight, speed, and aerodynamics, which would then no longer fly like a DC-3.
 
Hello:

Although there are ways to adjust settings in the Aircraft.Cfg to fine-tune the overall flight dynamics provided by the *.AIR file, they are inter-dependent, and one can open up a complex can of worms that ends up with an unrealistic flight experience for the aircraft.

A simpler method that allows a quick end user adjustment is via the FS menu GUI for aileron controller sensitivity:

Hope this helps ! :)

damping and increase control surface effects and size helps and "MOI" too but then it feels just bad when flying. I tried the 737,747,CRJ700 geometry and MOI + airwrench to get the CG right as it should. still wing rock. so I guess I have to look into the air file. 80K lbs plane. I will update if I find the solution.
 
empty_weight_roll_MOI = 188879 //208369
aileron_effectiveness =3.30000 //1.0
roll_stability =3.00000 //1.0
p_factor_on_yaw=1.00000 // 0.0
torque_on_roll=1.00000 // 0.0
gyro_precession_on_roll=1.00000 // 0.0
gyro_precession_on_yaw=1.00000 //0.0
wing_winglets_flag = 1 // 0

solid, It does not bank 80 degrees anymore like the dc3.
 
The DC-3 is modelled to rock, it is what everyone is trying to tell you. FSX is a "Flight Simulator," published by Microsoft and considered one of the best in the world, certainly cutting edge for it's time. Released in 2008, it has grown far beyond the expectations of it's original publisher and indeed enjoys new life, well into the 21st century. In the context of that environment, here you come 10 years later with an intention to "fix" the DC-3. To do so, within the constraints of "simulation," would be to discard the DC-3 for it's real world replacement, or, re-examine the DC-3 as modelled, to learn why it remains so popular, despite its shortcomings.

I apologize for being vague, but I believe you misinterpreted my previous post. When you come here and ask questions, it is not our role to end your search for you. It is our role to suggest ideas and relate experiences that help you - and others, understand your search, so that you can complete it. I think it helps to remember that the joy is in the discovery, we should never try to steal that. If you ask a question about aileron control and I turn around and type your words into Google, I am not using my years of experience with similar situations to help, I am being a librarian, further, I risk insulting you, by implying you cannot do the same for yourself.
 
It is for the bae 146-100, the one on Simviation. got my own panel and such.... . it is all flying and working good now. but still in a research what increases and decreases the effect. I start to believe that heavy planes and no wing winglets and wing AoA design and geometry have a lot to do with it.

Looks great, experimentation and discovery is exactly what the simulator excels at.
