fmedges Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I noticed when I cold start on the ground it takes forever to move the trim to 16 from 12(50 seconds), but in a hot start mission the trim moves quickly to 16 from 12(3-4 seconds). What am I missing in my cold starts? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Allied Air Command Website | Allied Air Command Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talonx1 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Flaps. If flaps are up you probably should be leaving trim alone (hence the slow movement.) When flaps are down/half the FCS is open to input for trim and should adjust quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spetz Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 (edited) Flaps setting I would say. You leave them up (auto) for your BIT test. After that, move them to half and you can adjust your take-off trim (weight dependent - 16', 17', etc..) and they move fast. Take off, then back to auto :) Edited July 6, 2018 by Spetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
