    Good day everyone,

    I am currently building my 2dof sim and testing it using Flypt. I play MSFS2020 and noticed that when the aircraft banks right or left, the rig moves and then goes back to the neutral position - while the aircraft still shows as banking on the screen - That is my rig is not staying in pose as long as the aircraft is on screen.

    I have checked stay on last possible pose, but it doesn't seem to work. I am attaching my pose and rig page snapshot from Flypt.

    If you have suggestions, many thanks to let me know.

    I am still exploring the limits of the rig, as such I have put the Yaw, Sway, Heave and Surge in manual.
    Also, i am limiting the displacement angle and have applied filters so that there is a dampened movement - The rig is made of wood and I had motors damaging the structure before as they were moving quite violently.

    Not sure if these settings contributed to not staying in pose. Many thanks for your suggestions.

    If you are using an EMAHP filter it makes the values go back to zero.
    You should use the EMAHP in the mixes that are representing accelerations. In the just roll, use EMALP to smooth movement. That way you roll when accelerating, making the rig go back to zero roll or the roll you have in just roll... Hope you understand what I mean
