Dreamboy Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I've been doing some testing and search information about the trim system on the Ka-50. After many test I reached the conclusion that there's something wrong with it. I've tryied to create a mission for a test fly. I've tryied a cold start from the parking and a running start from the runway. On both situations trim button was totally ignored. No force feedback response and no trimming on the cyclic. Trim button was working becouse when activating auto-hover mode the small square reseted when pressing trim. I've activated control visualization with RCtr+Enter and noticed that cyclic always returned to the center of the cross position. Then I tryed instant action and suddently trim seems to work and I have also force feedback, even joystick vibrates during flight. I've checked input visualization. The cyclic positon diamon was on a forwar centered position. Then I tryed to add some roll by turning to the right and press trim. The diamond on the input visualizer instead staying on the right as commanded returned to a center forward positon. I've also noticed that when activating flight director I have a double line indicator in the HUD that seems to keep attitude every time I press trim button. The only axis that seems to react as expected to trim is the rudder axis. If I press right pedal to get about 50% right yaw and press trim the rudder indicator on the visualizer stays exactly there. I've still not found any logic on this behaviour and I'm totaly confused.
