sjpateys Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I'm having roblems with the trim on the L39 and my experience seems to mirror that of others in that I set the trim and throttle for perfect level flight but 10 sec or so later the aircraft starts to wander (climbing/turning etc) no matter how I try the plane will not maintain level flight for more than 10 seconds or so. I have no trouble trimming my other modules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 When you say perfect level, do you also mean you perfectly maintain the speed at which you trimmed the aircraft? If yes, have you already tried removing all mods and running a repair? Have you also checked that the game/arcade flight mode is off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjpateys Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 The aircraft stays level for about 10 seconds before it starts to climb. I then have to adjust throttle and trim again. I am using the simulation flight model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Well, any change in speed also results in different forces, and that in turn will require you to constantly trim for the new speed. So unless you maintain perfectly the speed you trimmed for, you will always have to readjust the trim. That is how a non-FBW aircraft handles. But if you still feel something is wrong, perhaps you should upload a short track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjpateys Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 I am fully aware of how aircraft handle. I'm not a newbie. I know some are harder to trim than others. You dont normally have to retrim every 10 seconds or so even in a non FBW aircraft generally. Personally I think that the trim switching is a little too coarse so I guess I will just have to live with it. The trim changes are only minor anyhow now I have have had more practice.

sjpateys Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 I think you isunderstood my original post tbh, I wasn't expecting the trim to be maintained if I altered the power settings, I was talking about level flight at a aconstants speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 You never replied with this information to my questions of your speeds so I assumed you were not flying at a constant speed. Would have been a great detail to know earlier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjpateys Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 I have already answered your question. Yet again you have made assumptions. This is why I gave up responding in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
