Is Lateral Trim Too Sensitive ?

[Avio]

Just cannot quite get the lateral left / right trim right (like in the A10C and F5E) when carrying asymmetrical loadout, is it too sensitive?

Also, the targeting pod seems to create a lot of drag to the right during takeoff and landing. Is that correct?

The TGP will give you slight drag pulling the jet in that direction yes. 

If you have an axis to use for the roll trim I suggest using that as the trim hat on the stick is sensitive and you have to flick it to make smaller adjustments.

I use the TMS switch in all trimmings, as it is more reachable, while the conventional trim hat I use it for POV look-around. Wish it has the sensitivity setting like that in the MSFS. Or perhaps DCS could have made it in finer step for each push.

You may need to adjust your stick itself (if you can). The "pulse" coming out of the hardware may be longer than you think. The F-16 trim works really well for me with a VKB Gladiator.
