Scuby Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Hello, It appears that since a recent update of OpenBeta that in the Huey the Pilot Trimmer function is not working correctly anymore. This has been tested in various default Persian instant missions, with both the default key "T" and joystick binding, with Force Trim switch set to ON, with settings set to option default and option center stick. When Pilot Trimmer button is pressed the 3D button on the cyclic can physically be seen being pressed, but the result is that both pitch and roll axis are not being trimmed. When in settings also the option Rudder trim is selected, it appears that only the rudder is being trimmed correctly, while both axis are still not trimmed at all. | AMD RYZEN 5900X | INNO3D RTX 4080 ICHILL | G.SKILL 3200-C14 32GB | ASUS X570-E GAMING | LG 27GP850 2K/QHD | | TM HOTAS COUGAR | VPC WARBRD BASE | MFG CROSSWIND V2 | G.TRIX JETSEAT KW908 | HP REVERB G2 | YouTube: ScubyFlying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprool Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 my trim works as normal too, no change. Ive always had to trim rudder and cyclic as separate items though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuby Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 Thanks for your replies. Hmmm... I'll have some investigations to do. Clearly the trim button can be seen being pressed in 3D on the cyclic, but results in only the rudder being trimmed (if checked in options) and never a trim in pitch or roll. It did work before, so I'm scratching my head here?! | AMD RYZEN 5900X | INNO3D RTX 4080 ICHILL | G.SKILL 3200-C14 32GB | ASUS X570-E GAMING | LG 27GP850 2K/QHD | | TM HOTAS COUGAR | VPC WARBRD BASE | MFG CROSSWIND V2 | G.TRIX JETSEAT KW908 | HP REVERB G2 | YouTube: ScubyFlying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiituri Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I have the same problem - Is there a fix for this? Previously no problem. 3D animation works but there's no trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IJammer Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Check that you don't have multiple bindings set for the trim switch? That can screw things up big time; I find that updates can sometimes add extra bindings to other controllers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can screw things up big time; I find that updates can sometimes add extra bindings to other controllers! Thanks for your reply. I have cleared all other bindings and still TRIM IS NOT WORKING IN THE HUEY! Why is it working for some and not working for others? I can't figure my head around this... Only rudder trim is still working once this option has been selected. Help?

Good to hear that I am not the only one with this. How do you have the Huey trim settings setup? Do you use it in Openbeta? Do you have multiple bindings for trim? Hope other people can chime in here for help. | AMD RYZEN 5900X | INNO3D RTX 4080 ICHILL | G.SKILL 3200-C14 32GB | ASUS X570-E GAMING | LG 27GP850 2K/QHD | | TM HOTAS COUGAR | VPC WARBRD BASE | MFG CROSSWIND V2 | G.TRIX JETSEAT KW908 | HP REVERB G2 | YouTube: ScubyFlying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuby Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) Finally! FIXED IT! Under settings, in the Misc tab, just disable the checkmark for FORCE FEEDBACK. It is my opinion that this bug should be fixed soon, i.e. it shouldn't have to be so unclear/hidden for users in order for basic control functions to work... I see now on the forums that this has been reported back in 2018... OMG! Hope developers are taking notice here and can help us fix this. People are still flying Huey right?

Scuby Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 That is great! So happy for you too. Now hope this will be resolved in a future update. | AMD RYZEN 5900X | INNO3D RTX 4080 ICHILL | G.SKILL 3200-C14 32GB | ASUS X570-E GAMING | LG 27GP850 2K/QHD | | TM HOTAS COUGAR | VPC WARBRD BASE | MFG CROSSWIND V2 | G.TRIX JETSEAT KW908 | HP REVERB G2 | YouTube: ScubyFlying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volator Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I have the weird problem that 50% of the time I use force trim my cyclic controls freeze completely, and when I unplug & replug my TMW, it works again - that is if I am quick enough before I crash into the ground/trees/... Is anybody else seeing this too? 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volator Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Looks like I got it corrected. I cycled and reselected trim mode in special options, now it seems to work fine. 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razalom Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Having the same issue now. Turned off the force feedback made no difference. its not bound to anything else and have tried multiple keys but force trim still wont work. Buttons working fine on Joystick for other functions.

Irk26 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) Same issue. Does not work... at all. It used to. Force Trim switch is on. Tried with Misc > Force Feedback both on and off and completely restarted the sim between changes. Pressing the Pilot Trimmer button just makes the button on the cyclic depress. That's it. It otherwise does nothing. Has this even been acknowledged as a bug yet? Seriously, please fix. It can't be that difficult... 2.7.3.8494 Edit: Nevermind. Found the problem, in case anybody else lands here with this issue. Not only do you have to deselect Force Feedback, you also have to know to go into the "Special" menu, select UH-1H down the left side, then set your Trimmer Mode. In my case, it had to be set to "Central Position Tirmmer Mode." Also make sure "Autopilot Availability" is checked.

Icebeat Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I am using a Vpforce Rhino FFB and with the option 'without spring and FFB' pilot trim doesn't work. it is also required to disable the rudder option or the pedals will move after each pilot trim depress.
