regards Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 Same experience here.. As long as I choose a pre-defined load profile, there's little to no issue with the balance of the bird but as soon as I choose my own load, trouble kicks in. I know, the trim wheels are not installed for the candy but it would be helpful if the onboard systems correct at least the major part of the trim. It was with a reason that the fly by wire system was invented. No idea how this works in the real F16 though.
TAW_Blaze Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 The trim adjustment by 1 button should be user customizable to define it's "amplitude". Currently in basically all aircraft if my plane is slightly rolling to left, I trim one notch to the right and now I'm at least as severely or more rolling to the opposite direction. What a worthless function.
toutenglisse Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 I had similar issue at first, Trim command too sensitive for 1 "click", but for other reasons I modified the curves (negative ones) for roll and pitch axis (I think I use -15 for "X" and -13 for "Y") and that also had an effect on Trim sensivity. Result is : axis with negative curves is way better to control the aircraft a similar way than others like F18 (with no curve the Viper lacks too much sensivity in axis - maybe because original axis settings have to match a pressure input controller like real ?) AND the trim Hat became less sensitive (I was expecting the opposite ?) and I can trim way more precisely.

Tenkom Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 I figured out a sort of workaround to the overly sensitive roll trim in the viper. Paste these lines into the default.lua file in ...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F-16C\Input\F-16C\joystick { down = control_commands.RollTrim_ITER, cockpit_device_id = devices.CONTROL_INTERFACE, value_down = 0.3, name = _('ROLL TRIM Wheel - L WING DN hotas'), category = {_('Left Console'), _('MANUAL TRIM Panel')}}, { down = control_commands.RollTrim_ITER, cockpit_device_id = devices.CONTROL_INTERFACE, value_down = -0.3, name = _('ROLL TRIM Wheel - R WING DN hotas'), category = {_('Left Console'), _('MANUAL TRIM Panel')}}, Then bind these commands instead of the normal commands you find in the hotas section. It's not perfect as you have to keep clicking the button to keep trimming. Holding it down just equals one click. But it does make it alot easier to stabilize the aircraft. At least it does for me.
