2.7 FFB Trimmer not working (Joystick without springs and FFB)

[VaporFlow]

MSFFB2 User here... Having problems with trimming in the UH-1H and Mi-8 since 2.7. Works as intended in the Ka-50. The 3 of them are set in "Joystick without springs and FFB".

TL;DR:

 

I'm using my MSFFB with

 

• Options>Special>[module]>Trimmer Mode= "default"

• Options>Misc>Force Feedback = ON (checked)

 

Both Mi-8 and Huey FFB appear to be working normally with my MS FFB2 i.e. hold offset "Force Trim" positions, both in game and with the physical joystick.

 

Tested in Open Beta 2.7.0.4625

IIRC

 

• Trimmer Mode =  "Joystick without springs and FFB"

 

... is for free floating joysticks without either center springs OR Force Feedback i.e. for cockpit builders who perhaps use a full size cyclic with it's own trimmer system/brake.

 

Additional Info :

Remember to swap DCS's default force axis to match your MS FFB in

 

• Options>Controls>[module]>SideWinder Force Feedback 2 (tab)>FF Tune

 

... if you haven't already done so.

Add detail about swapping DCS's force axis for MS FFB sticks.

You're right, I've set both to default, swap axis and turned off "Invert X axis" (don't know why it was tilt). It's now working fine! Thank you!
