BAC 1-11 rocking from side-to-side during rollout
Good day gents and seasons greetings!
I've got a problem with the lovely BAC 1-11 200 from Mr Maltby. For some reason on landing rollout it rocks quite violently from side-to-side despite landing on speed and with the correct flare. This happens with or without weather. Any of you experienced this or am I just "special"...
Cheers
Adam

Hello Adam
I personally have never had that nor heard anyone else.
So we need to be looking at specifics.
Have you got the latest pack or is there a chance that you are using different panel/model version combinations?
Did you download from anwhere else than here?
Sorry, can't give you an answer straight off, but perhaps elimination could start with these questions

Hi Garry I downloaded it from David's site a few months ago - just reinstalled onto my new FSX drive. Worked fine before.
It's very odd - it's like a sudden gust of wind picks one wing up once I touch down and attempt to roll out in a straight line. I'm having to do a uncoordinated dance with the Saitek Yoke and Rudder pedals to keep it on the runway! It does this with "clear weather" ie no wind/turbulence.
EDIT: It's not just the 1-11. Tried same approach with the QW 146 and same thing so it's obviously not a 1-11 specific issue sorry!
Maybe I'll try another airfield. Was practising touch and goes at LPLA.
Regards
Adam

Hi Adam
Well, whatever the reason this will be interesting to know
Keep us informed please

Do you have Accu-feel installed? I find that affects some aircraft in this way. If you do, try turning down the "side forces" in the "Land" section.

Concur with that. Accu-Feel works really well with some aircraft but others it kills.
Likewise, some airfields in FSX seem to have 'built-in' turbulence very close to one runway end.. I think Inverness is one that can be a challenge even with wind at zero kts and no 'real weather' injected. These 'pockets' of turbulence are one aspect of FSX I don't care for as they can't be eliminated.. even by setting all the sliders hard left

Re: BAC 1-11 rocking from side-to-side during rollout
Not sure if this helps but when I have had similar unpredictable control inputs it has been down to somehow duplicate axis assignments between FSUIPC and FS itself. Is it possible that your yaw and / or roll axis have both an FSUIPC definition and a conflicting definition in FS?

Re: BAC 1-11 rocking from side-to-side during rollout
Thank you gentlemen! Accufeel appears to be the main culprit. Have turned off the "side forces" slider and can now perform a landing with reasonable grace without bouncing off the side of the runway!
JohnWillimas thank you for that tip I shall go through my control assignments tonight and re-calibrate my Yoke through FSUIPC again checking they're not conflicting with FSX.
Cheers and Xmas beers
