I Think the rudder thing is a bug. I have a Cougar HOTAS set up with elite
pedals. Usually when I start a take off run the first time I get run away
nose wheel steering and have to reset the flight and then all is well. I have
no problem after this when taking off from Meigs or Phoenix Sky Harbor,
however if I try to take off from the Flagstaff, AZ airport I am all over the
place and can hardly keep it on the runway. This is not P factor as sometimes
the plane yaws to the right and jet aircraft do it as well. I seriously think
this is a bug that has not been addressed by MS. Too many people having this
trouble.

Are you centering your controls prior to take-off? If not then that's the
problem, operator error.

Thanks for you reply, Twilson.

AHA! :P So it's NOT just me! Have you, or anyone heard anything about a
patch, maybe? Back in the day, MS used to read usenet; I don't know if they
still do, but back then if enough people were stating they were having the
same problem and/or complained consistently about it, you could get an
answer or some feedback from them. One would think or hope that a patch
would be about due by now...thanks for your time

Regards to all
