Problem with trim not working

[Dilbflo1]

Hi all.

I have a problem with the trim of the SU-25.

In these days I was trying to set the controls for a simple Speedlink Phantom Hawk joystick, and I noticed that the trim of the plane is not working.

Situation: to make a simple test I created a mission starting from a ramp cold start. I turn on the APU (RShift+L), then the two engines, and then I try to move the trim for elevator and ailerons. Looking from the F2 external view, I don't see any movement of the control surfaces.

The strange thing is that I also tried to delete the joystick assignments and putting back the default keyboard controls for trim, but the effect is the same.

I also tried a repair of DCS World, with no luck.

To make a simple comparison, I tried the same operation in FSX, and also with the joystick the trim works as expected, so it doesn't seem a problem related to the peripheral.

Do you have any suggestion? Am I missing something about the control setup?

I usually triming in the flight ,not on the ground.

Sure.

But it is simpler to test the correct behaviour before takeoff, a bit like a normal preflight check. And I found that in my case the trim seems not working, do you have any suggestion?

Hi,

 

just an update, maybe it can be useful to others.

After several unsuccessful tests, I find a post here in the forum (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=119849), where it is suggested to turn off the Force Feedback in DSC World Options.

And actually the method works (I don't know which can be the relationship between the two things). Now the trim in the SU-25 works as expected, both with keyboard and the D_Pad on the joystick.
