hi all
i just played my brother's friends il2, he's letting me borrow it for a time
i have to say i enjoyed it alot, although im trying the first mission on career and i tried to take off manually and the plane started to veer of to the left or the right for no reason - can anyone help? what am i doing wrong?
anyway i ended up having to take off kinda of course to start with, so what i did was just put it in auto pilot and that brought me back on course,
then when i took it off auto pilot i had to keep my finger on the down arrow to just keep it flying straight, i couldnt go any higher than about 100 feet? any help?
then as i flew towards were on the map it said i had to bomd (i think) i discovered i didnt have any bombs even though there were blatant targets to destroy right below me and to add insult to injury my teammates just flew straight over the target and turned around, headed back to base, why?
im sure this is just a stupid mistake im making on all of these problems but im sure i will enjoy the game alot more if you can help me out
thanks
Pete

So because you have a single prop on the front rotating clockwise a couple of thngs will happen. You will notice a yaw to the left. The main reason for this is the slipstream effect , and the engine torque effect, both of which act in the opposite direction to the prop. So prop swings right, plane yaws left. This means you need a bit of right rudder to conteract, but not too much, or you'll up overcompensating and yawing right, then overcompensating again and getting intoa right old pickle. If you have a joystick with a twist grip for rudder action you'll find this easier. You can also tweak the deadzone on your rudder in IL2.

. I just couldnt stand the crappy response of the joystick etc especially as I am used to flying RC planes grrrr. I need to get the game adapter for this
