A10 Flight control issue
-
You will get original microprose flight model

I tired this last night, and I was still getting un-commanded roll/pitch in the A-10. Plus some issues with the autopilot.
I still managed to cluster bomb my target and get the jet back and landed. But it was a huge pain.

impossible.
you certainly didnt apply the flight model setting correctly
you need to choose the simplified model.
if you still can not get it to work or are unsure about how to make it work, juste delete the A10_AFM.dat file in your sim/acdata folder

Would it matter that I edited my setup after I had already launched the TE?
It’s possible I might have also entered the Jet before I came back out and reset the flight model.
I will try it again tonight before launching the TE, and if it’s still giving me un-commanded roll/pitch after that, I will delete the flight model data file.
EDIT: Tried it, got uncommanded roll. Emptied all the stores from the jet, I got uncommanded role. Reset all my controls, I got uncommanded roll. Deleted the file you mentioned, got uncommanded roll.
Obviously this is not something you need to bother fixing, but I thought I would post my results up here anyway.

if you have uncommanded roll with simplified model (ofm) that means you have a problem of joystick or rudder.
please check that your joystick is centered with the center button and check that no weird axis is used for rudder
FYI even empty the a10 will have uncommanded roll due to assym pods BUT only for AFM
OFM can not have unbalance
i am sure every people here czn confirm you that there is no unbalance for a10 with simplified model so there is nothing to fix…

I did check my stick…it’s working fine in the F-16.
But then when I tried the F-15 I had the same problem.
This happened to me once before, and the solution was to delete my key file (which apparently had some left over DX commands in it from an old trim setup I was using) and create a new off the base BMS key file, so I think that is what I am going to do.

@Mav-jp, I know its an old post, but had a 2 hr flight on the A-10A as you suggested, I chose the “Easy Model” and she was awesome, very stable. Just in case anyone wanted to try it and for those that like the Hog more than anything.

You don’t have to mess with Easy mode in 4.33. Many things were corrected in this release regarding A-10, including trimming issue. Of course, it stills need it but it’s totally different thing.

Just select simplified flight model in the setup page and you will get OFM for the A10 .
Don’t forget to put back realistic if you fly the f 16
damn, not thought of before…

This is correct, much has been done to get the A-10 as it should.
You have to fly it as an aircraft and trim as it should.On the contrary what some people state about the A-10 is considered non-flyable…
The A-10 is a very good flyable aircraft in BMS and is one of the better FMs in BMS.
However… you do need to know how to fly a aircraft without a FBW system.EDIT:
Even the mach tuck as described in the A-10 RL manual is includedGr Falcas
