Fokker D7 / D7F left roll

[J2_Bidu]

Am I the only guy for which these planes roll abnormally to the left?

 

After joystick calibration, every plane is relatively stable in a quick mission with no wind / no turbulence.

 

But for me, not the Fokker D7/D7F. They roll left. It's not so subtle. It's actually quite annoying.

 

(...and people complain about the DM...! picky guys! ? )

Yes , it's was always like that.  In RoF too if I remember correctly.

No.  I've flown all the planes in ROF and FC: none of them pull adversely in either direction.  Sounds like it's in your setup or rig.

Can't say I've ever noticed the 7F rolling left of its own accord...possibly a setup thing like Oben says. Old joystick / pedals?   EDIT: it only happens with the D7/ 7F? That's bizarre...

Isnt this why the tail fin is off to the side? I thought I read something once that said something about that.

If it were my setup, why would it happen on these planes only? ?

I never had such a thing in ROF... I always remember it as very stable, with a strong - almost unstoppable - tendency to climb. Now it hardly wants to climb at all. No nose up attitude.

 Yeah it's nose heavy,  only one plane which you have to pull to fly level,  wired.

That's a good question; I could speculate but I'm not knowledgeable enough about the FM to answer it.  

 

All my (minor) problems stem from the fact that my computer is old and barely adequate for VR;  I need new gear.  

 

Would it be hard for you to install a different set of controls to see if the problem persists?

 

That's about all I've got.  Good luck with it.

That's actually a good idea! I all but forgot I have a couple MSFFB2 catching dust that I could use just for that purpose.

Thanks, I'll check. 

 

P.S.: Careful observation has led me to notice that even on the albie there is a hint of rotation to the left when the engine is full power. And in the D7F it increases with the power. So it must be a torque effect, but it's oddly only really noticeable in the D7s.
