Hello everyone. I’ve been having a problem whenever I take off or land. Even after calibrating, whenever I disable APPR on final, my aircraft starts veering to the right. I play on a desk, so it’s a flat surface. I’m not sure why this happens.
Is that any wind during takeoff and landing?
If there’s wind then you’ll naturally veer off as your plane wants to go into the wind, so you’ll need to correct that
no it’s not like that. i saw other topics about this issue. im talking about how the planes like rolls to the right. and it’s always to the right. if it were a wind issue, it would also veer left but it never does.
Try calibrate while turned right, so when you hold the device straight, it might counterbalance the right leaning tendency.
Hi,
You said
and
When that motion to the right starts, does it start as a yaw (nose points to the right with wings still mostly level), or roll (right wing goes down; left wing up)?
sorry for the confusion. it is a roll.
Just a guess…
When you disable APPR but not the A/P completely, your aircraft will continue following A/P for undetermined NAV1 and not GPS from your previous LNAV.
it happens even after disabling A/P all together
I’m beginning to think you only got one engine on 
okay jk aside, I see there are multiple problems there, so not only during approach but also when taking off?
hmm well 9 times out of 10, it happens on approach. it’s only happened once during takeoff
I’m pre-guessing you’re not using any joysticks etc so controller input residue would not be an issue, yet still this is baffling. Not winds, not A/P HDG or LNAV stuck at NAV1 instead of GPS, not engine out… I’m wondering would a replay file help…?
…anyway, one last thing: check your fuel during parking, right and left wing and center balance.
Other than that check your flat table. A large table wouldn’t feel like its tilting so place a AAA battery on it to see if it rolls to the right on its own
thanks so much for helping. honestly, i was looking more for people who might’ve experienced the same issue rather than a solution.
