I am excited to try Flight gear, and I can get as
far as the engine of the cessna running at idle on the SFO runway, but nothing I
try to do seems to work. The turn and bank indicator is rocking back and forth
as I sit there idling, as if some sort of wierd crosswind is going on. I think I
have figured out that if I start with numlock on, I have to turn it off, then
back on to get it to read the keyboard at all. Then, it will start to roll down
the runway with a press of the 9 key, but engine speed doesn't pick up at all,
no matter how long I hold it pressed or keep intermittantly pressing it. At the
same time, the plane starts to drift to the left, and the turn and bank shows a
hard left bank. I have to hold steady on the 6 key and the ". " key to keep it
from spinning around to the left. That still doesn't get me going down the
runway to a takeoff. Am I missing something here? Here's the specs:
Dell Dimension 8400 (yes, I've read about Dell
issues), standard Keyboard
Windows WP SP2
Pentium IV 3.6 Ghz, 1Gb RAM, 19" CRT.
256Mb NVidia 6800 GTO (I know about the GTO
also)
Standard FG install from installer.
Cessna 182 2-D, default JSB sim
Any suggestioons for a noob would be welcome. I
have flown Pro Pilot and Microsoft FS 1998 without major problems
Thanks! |
