hey all, quick question: what does "Rudder Trimmer" and "Central Position Trimmer Mode" options in the "Special" menu do? I think i know what central position trimmer mode does, but i use a FFB joystick so i dont need it. However I can't find any info in the manual about the other option.

 

Thanks!

Some time ago, when trimming the Ka-50, it also trimmed the position of your rudder pedals. It was unrealistic and people used a "mod" to disable this. Now you have the option of setting this behavior on or off.

 

Central position trimmer waits for you to return the stick into the central position before the trim takes effect. You don't need it on a FFB joystick as you've already figured out yourself.

Failure is the mother of all success.

thanks for your quick response! so you think i should keep "rudder trimmer" to its default off? not sure how having the rudder get trimmed also would affect the flight...

It can sometimes lead to some nasty rotor clashes or crashes in general because you already might have your rudders trimmed "a lot" and you just add to the trim further by trimming. Things can get nasty pretty quick.

 

It's really hard to know your current rudder location without using CTRL + Enter option. I'd advise you to fly without trim.
