Maverick Deployment

[jomni]

I'm having a very hard time hitting with the Mav.

The A-10 just keeps swinging wildly so I need to adjust trim very often and it still swings.

The targets are also little dots so it's hard to get a good lock and I have to try a lot of times.

 

Any tips?

 

Update: I guess it's all about experience. I'm getting better now, but not good enough.

I get to make the plane more stable with extensive use of trim. Something that I don't do in the SF series.

Do you have a twist rudder? You may want to go into the controls and increase the dead zone for the rudder so you don't move it inadvertantly.

Thanks! I guess the twist was the problem. Bought a new HOTAS (Thustmaster T.Flight) and retired my Saitek Cyborg Evo. It has a screw to lock the flight stick from twisting. I then assigned rudders to the paddles in the throttle. Less use of trimming from now on.
