Taxing?

Hey, I was just wondering if this happeneds to everyone, or just me..

When I go to taxi onto the runway, for some reason it just goes too fast without stopping.. And Even if im using the opposite key, it will just goo wayy too fast, ( Like, take off speeed) and I can't steer or anything. I tried it 3 times today.. First time it just went straight and blew up on the side of the runway.. ( With a -108 points? WTF Is up with that?)

2nd time it lagged and I ended up ont he grass..

3rd time I managed to get on the runway, but then it just jolted forward, so I bailed and bled to death.. What am I doing wrong? Or is it just my joystick? Because I also tried switching too my arrow keys, but it still didn't help..

Thanks..
(Ps. Sorry for spelling I'm kind of tired atm)

Yeah you sort of have to tap W and just keeping tapping it to keep your speed constantly low. Use A and D to move left and right and S or Space to slow down.

EDIT: S**t! I mean "RTFM NOOB!"

Hmm, for taxiing with my keyboard, I use the mouse to taxi and it works best (not W). Jut keep thrusting the mouse forward, and you can taxi easily. Or maybe it's just my control settings.

Ok i'll try that mouse.. I originally treid to use my joystick but. Anyways...
That Kashan training map, do they have jets on there? Or do you have to wait 10 mins for them to respawn... ( Or are there more than 2 at a time) Thx

And Rhino, i've watched that vid 3 times already,

Or maybe I'm just full of **** and don't actually fly jets ever?

Never mind guys, sorry for your time.. i figured out the problem.. The thrusters on my joystick were backwards, thus while trying to taxi.. Thx anyways tho!

Joystick ftw. And dont tell me you cant afford it. If you can afford a PC that plays PR then you can afford a decent joystick. Yes I'm looking at you people with your 40+ Dollar Jeans :P

Pushing forward on the joystick should move you forward.... and vice versa
