jermin Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 I read somewhere years ago that real 190 pilots tend to trim their the horizontal stabilizer some minus degrees because 190s are a bit tail-heavy. But the game depicts a completely different picture. The plane can't keep its nose up even at 500+ km/h air speed, which feels really weird.
MiloMorai Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 'Minus' would put the leading edge down and cause the nose to rise.

HugePanic Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 I don't thin you can determine if a plane us noae heavy only by the position of the trim dial. From flying, i don't feel anything like a nose heavyness....
Barfly Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Maybe they trimmed slightly negative to assist in ease of pitch control during formation flying? That's not an uncommon technique, might have worked well with the 190.
