Fellow SPA wing-nuts:

Have any of you attempted to set up a ground steering tiller in MSFS?

It has always seemed to me that ground steering has always been too sensitive in FS.

I've been looking into it, and it doesn't look like it can be done. If anyone has any knowledge of how to do this, or why it can't be done, please post here.

Thank you,

Jerry

It's usually a half wheel on the captain's left side that he steers the airplane with on the ground, rather than using the rudder peddles...like you would use in a small airplane.
The Tiller is hydraulic and would have a different steering ratio than the rudder peddles. The capt would transfer control from the Tiller to the Rudder at 80 kts.
That's why you get that 80 kt call in some of the more complex sim airplanes.

I always thought the 80 knots callout was to rotate?

Cillian,

I have a clip of steering tiller in action on a DVD. If I get a chance, I will post the video here in this thread.
