MivwTaupos Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I don't really think I need to trim because the VV maintain on the middle and flying straight anyway.
mongo52 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Should've gone away once WoffW but did you set trim before take off?
Honez Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Me and my buddies that fly in MP see this all the time. None of us can figure out how to get rid of it. We trim before take off and still have it show up. Not sure what causes it. Maybe it's a bug.

squid509 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 are you taking off from a land based field or launching off at carrier? the only time in see that Waring is when im launching off the carrier and for get to set trim for my weight what you should set it to is found in the manual or the NATOPS 1
AvgWhiteGuy Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I see this warning in mid-flight miles after setting Trim for T/O whether carrier or land. I can't find any relationship to weight, airspeed, AOA or anything else...I have noticed this warning at level flight +350 knots, smoking a cig & sipping a beer. Can't figure it out.

gonk Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) If Take off trim button (centre of the rudder trim knob), does not clear it, just apply back trim until it goes away.... It has always been back trim (nose up) that clears it.. I have only noticed on take off... Or during the take off roll... And I always clear it with more nose up trim...

Frederf Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 T/O trim button sets stabs to 12. For CV takeoff set trim according to the manual (16, 17, 19 whatever it says by weight). Then you won't get the advisory.
Ourorborus Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 This warning activates when you power up for take off if you haven't set trim with take off trim button. Press the button (or press the button then trim further for weight on carrier) should be part of pre take off checks. Sent from my F8331 using Tapatalk
Swift. Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Tip for everyone: in general when you throttle up to near max power just before takeoff (boat or shore), if it deedles at you, then you have a problem that needs fixing. 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2
QuiGon Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I always make sure to press the T/O Trim Pusbutton before takeoff. When starting from a carrier I also finetune the trim depending on the loadout as follows: - Light (clean): 12° trim - Medium (A-A or normal A-G loadout): 14° trim - Heavy (full A-G loadout): 16° trim Doing that I never get the check trim warning. And it makes for much smoother takeoffs :) 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!

Shimmergloom667 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 how do you adjust the trim beyond using the T/O trim push button? Hit T/O trim, then trim more through the regular trim hat on the stick. Also "check trim" advisory 9 times out of 10 means you didn't FCS reset during startup @ OP i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

Doum76 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Not sure if i'm off subjet, but seems now the Hornet ADV appears if trim is set below 16 degs when launching/addding thrust, as, if i remember, 44k lbs and below it should be 16 deg, 45k-48k 17 deg and above 49k, 19 deg. On the cat, you can clearly see the ADV going off as you trim 16+. So before taking off, a quick look at the CHKLST page it shows weight and trim. And i think hitting the T/O button resets trim (i think) and setting it to 12 deg. Edited September 29, 2020 by Doum76

And it makes for much smoother takeoffs :) In real life though (which also works great in DCS), you'd only leave it on 12 for runway takeoffs. For carrier takeoffs, you always trim to at least 16. Note that when spawning a Hornet on the catapult, it will already be trimmed to 16. Bankler's CASE 1 Recovery Trainer
