thdman1511 Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 I have recently set up my Thrustmuster T.Flight Hotas X joystick so that I can set up my trim. I press joy_btn 12 and use the hat to control trim, however I am finding that when I go to trim my pitch the hat is too sensitive. I messed around with the fine tune in DCS world control setup but found it was taking way too long to set up the trim for level flight. However I want to know what affect the Trimmer force and shake has on joystick settings At present I have set the Trimmer Force to 25 and the shake to 15. To be honest I have no idea what they do. Can anyone advise me on this please. I have flown over my target several times while trying to adjust the pitch trim, so frustrating and challenging.

Flagrum Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 The settings "Trim force" and "Shake" that you find under Options -> Controls -> FF Tune are only relevant for Force Feedback joysticks. They willl not help you with your issues with the trim hat as your stick is not a FFB device, afaik (and also, it does not affect hat switches at all, but the forces generated by the device for the main axes).
ratkandy Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 I just click the hat switch several times to make a fine trim setting. If I need a major trim adjustment (in the Su-25) I just put it in AP level flight or attitude hold mode, let the autopilot do it for me.
