blast Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Hi, Any idea on how to visualize the TRIM values and the possibility to reset it?
pimp Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 I believe the FCS page shows you the values. i9 14900k @5.6GHz NZXT Kraken |Asus ROG Strix Z790 A-Gaming | Samsung NVMe m.2 990 Pro 2TB | 64GB DDR5 6400MHz EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra | PiMAX CRYSTAL LIGHT | HOTAS Warthog | Saitek Flight Pedals
QuiGon Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 It does indeed. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
QuiGon Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 They should be zeroed if you are on the ground, put the flaps to auto and run the FCS test.

Goa Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 how to reset trim if you trim the aircraft in the air and then you want to reset the applied trim?? Does it reset automatically when moving the joystick??

blast Posted June 6, 2018 Author Posted June 6, 2018 I believe the FCS page shows you the values. They should be zeroed if you are on the ground, put the flaps to auto and run the FCS test. I should have to precise "during the flight". Because when adding TRIM during the flight, the FCS page doesnt reflect it. For example after bombing and you have to trim left, the FCS page doesnt display any information about the trim. Which is annoying because when all bombs are gone you need to reset trim as normal which is not possible obviously. The only way is to trim manually and check visually if the plane is balanced... Not cool.
Luzifer Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 I doubt anything like this exists in the real plane, it would be between useless and dangerous. If you're flying and you notice the plane is out of trim, you just apply the desired trim. Nobody is looking at indicators or pressing reset buttons except to set takeoff trim on the ground.

It's not useless since we are asking it. Having the info on the FCS to trim correctly the plane would have been very usefull in order to balance the plane. Also it would have been usefull too if the autopilot was auto trimming. And it's not dangerous at all. Edited June 6, 2018 by blast
