Sudden Pitch Up

[Avio]

Been flying the eagle for a long while now with no issue, but i just encountered a sudden pitch up when on long final to land at Mariana map.

The neutral position of stick sudden showed an extreme pull back resulting in an extreme nose-up, as if there was a max up trim. Pressing and holding down trim did nothing. I had to press and hold the Trim For Takeoff button for a period to re-centralise the stick for proper control.

Had never encountered this issue before. Happened in a few flights, all done on Mariana map, at different locations.

Anyone else seen this before?

Have you checked your axis controls for any unwanted bindings?

[Avio]

Absolutely positive no double binding. Nothing has changed all this while.

Sometimes it can happen there is something bound to it by accident for whatever reason. You should confirm that this is not the case. Both with axis and regular keys.

Otherwise, does it happen in other aircraft too? If it does, it might be also a control issue or a hardware issue.

[Avio]

Already checked, no double binding. Been flying the eagle the whole year but inly just encountered this.

The other aircraft with uncommanded pitch up is the A10, but that is a well known bug that went unfixed for all these years despite having been flagged up by many users over the years. For that the pitch up only happens mostly just when the A10 crosses the runway threshold during landing.

Track would be helpful, haven't experienced any sudden trim nose up in either of these aircraft.

The pitch up in the F15E happens rarely and unpredictably, but the A10 one has been widely reported over the years and can be found online.

By the way, there is a setting under Special that says something about turning on or off force sensing trim setting. It is on by default, i just turned it off now. Could that be a cause? What does it do? I had unknowningly had that turned on all those time with no issue, until only very recently that the pitch up started happening.

I’d have to check, but I’m pretty sure that’s only for FFB sticks: it allows for a different centre position - just like the F-5 and F-14 for example.
