I'm wondering - maybe I should turn all these gyro realism off,
as it is rather not important during FS training, not quite realistically simulated, and not very difficult, I suppose, to take care of in a real Cessna Umm. IRL, your instructor will train you to check the directional gyro with the magnetic compass every 10 minutes or so. In a lot of older training aircraft, the drift can put you off course pretty quickly. Also, on the flight test, the examiner will be watching to make sure you cross check as well. So it's not a bad habit to get into. As for yaw, yes you'll definitely need to use pedals to adjust for that especially when taking off with the usual full power. Pulling power can also cause a yaw in the opposite direction! Airplanes with a propeller rotating the other way than we're used to in the US (for example, I believe, some WWII British fighters) will have takeoff yaw to the right, btw. Cheers, Kev |
