Old versions of MS flight simulator used to have an indicator for the
aileron, elevator and rudder positions, like so:

(all three positions could also be manipulated/dragged with the
mouse).
This handy little "multi-indicator" is absent in recent MS flight
simulators. I'm presently using FS2002 with aircraft model Cessna
172SP Skyhawk, and I can never see what the rudder position is.
I'm having real trouble in flight simulator maneuvering planes,
especially on the ground, as there is no way to see what the rudder
position is (same for aileron and elevator positions, though those are
not used during taxiyng). In the older FS, you could glance at the
little panel http://www.flightsimbooks.com/ffs/48-1.jpg and see the
rudder position.
Any idea/suggestions on
- how to monitor the rudder position in recent flight simulators, such
as FS2002?
- how to do a better job at taxiyng on the ground?
Thanks,
Wolfgang
