I've been reading carefully this thread about the trim as I think I'm having some problems with it.
I've totally understood how it works. But there's something weird as sometimes it works as expected and sometimes not.
When it works I manage to feel the force feedback pressure change on my Logitech Wingman Force 3D joystick and the helicopter gets trimmed as expected.
Other times I keep pressing the trim button without any noticeable effect and when release cyclic pressure nose goes up like crazy.
I've noticed that using the input visualizer (RCtrl+Enter) gives good information about the controls applied. But I have a question about it...
I see two lines forming a cross for the pitch and roll controls. The center of this cross is supposed to mark the default cyclic center position. But does this cross settings have to change when pushing the trim button?
I've tried to trim many times without seeing any changes in the input visualizer.
I've also tried to trim with AP modes on and of and different combinations. Also I guessed if I forgot to turn hydraulics or other system related with trim on. But still not found what makes it sometimes work and others don't.
Has anyone similar problems trimming the Ka-50?
